A Role for the Ancient SNARE Syntaxin 17 in Regulating Mitochondrial Division
Kohei Arasaki,Hiroaki Shimizu,Hirofumi Mogari,Naoki Nishida,Naohiko Hirota,Akiko Furuno,Yoshihisa Kudo,Misuzu Baba,Norio Baba,Jinglei Cheng,Toyoshi Fujimoto,Naotada Ishihara,Carolina Ortiz-Sandoval,Lael D. Barlow,Arun Raturi,Naoshi Dohmae,Yuichi Wakana,Hiroki Inoue,Katsuko Tani,Joel B. Dacks,Thomas Simmen,Mitsuo Tagaya +21 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that Syn17 is one of the original key regulators for ER-mitochondria contact sites present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor and acts as a switch that responds to nutrient conditions and integrates functions for the ER and autophagosomes with mitochondrial dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geometry of the flagellar motor in the cytoplasmic membrane of Salmonella typhimurium as determined by stereo-photogrammetry of quick-freeze deep-etch replica images.
TL;DR: The precise geometry of the flagellar basal structure anchored in the cytoplasmic membrane was determined by digital stereo-photogrammetry of the images captured by quick-freeze deep-etch replica electron microscopy and a three-dimensional model of the total basal structure is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extended morphological processing: a practical method for automatic spot detection of biological markers from microscopic images.
TL;DR: This method achieved effective spot extraction under various image conditions, including aggregated target spots, poor signal-to-noise ratio, and large variations in the background intensity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of the Laplacian filter to high‐resolution enhancement of SEM images
Eisaku Oho,Norio Baba,Masaru Katoh,Takashi Nagatani,Masako Osumi,Kazunobu Amako,Koichi Kanaya +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Laplacian filter was removed from the original image and the noise was suppressed by the nonlinear type smoothing method, which was evaluated by an autocorrelation function and a power spectrum of the image.
Journal ArticleDOI
Percolation threshold for electrical resistivity of Ag-nanoparticle/ titania composite thin films fabricated using molecular precursor method
Daniel Likius,Hiroki Nagai,Sohei Aoyama,Chihiro Mochizuki,Hiroki Hara,Norio Baba,Mitsunobu Sato +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the electrical resistivity of Ag-NP/titania composite thin films with different volumetric fractions of silver (0.26 ≤ φAg ≤ 0.68) to titania, were fabricated on a quartz glass substrate at 600 °C using the molecular precursor method.
