Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Icosahedral Virus Particles as Addressable Nanoscale Building Blocks

TL;DR: The burgeoning field of nanotechnology seeks to mimic the information-handling, materials-building, and responsive sensing capabilities of biological systems at the nanometer scale, and would be well served by building blocks of the proper size with predictable and programmable chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural supramolecular building blocks. Wild-type cowpea mosaic virus.

TL;DR: Cowpea mosaic virus was found to possess a lysine residue with enhanced reactivity in each asymmetric unit, and thus 60 such lysines per virus particle, and the identity of this residue was established by a combination of acylation, protein digestion, and mass spectrometry.
Journal ArticleDOI

The refined crystal structure of cowpea mosaic virus at 2.8 A resolution.

TL;DR: The CPMV capsid was permeable to cesium ions, leading to a disturbance of the beta-annulus inside a channel-like structure, suggesting an ion channel, and the P6(1)22 crystal structure was solved by molecular replacement with the C PMV model determined in the cubic cell.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cowpea Mosaic Virus as a Scaffold for 3-D Patterning of Gold Nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this article, different mutants of Cowpea Mosaic Virus (CPMV) have been used as scaffolds to bind 2 and 5 nm gold nanoparticles through gold−sulfur bond formation at specific locations on the virus.
