Clathrin Coated Vesicles01:12

Clathrin Coated Vesicles

9.3K
Clathrin-coated vesicles use endocytosis to transport receptors and lysosomal hydrolases from the Golgi to the lysosome in the late secretory pathway. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis was the first described endocytic process, and Clathrin-coated vesicles remain one of the most well-studied transport vesicles. The molecular machinery that generates clathrin-coated vesicles comprises over 50 proteins that precisely coordinate vesicle formation. Cell surface receptors concentrated in indented sites...

COP Coated Vesicles

18.2K
Membrane-enclosed structures called vesicles transport proteins and lipids across the cell. The vesicles derive their cargo from the plasma membrane, Golgi, ER, or endosome. Coated vesicles are spherical, protein-coated carriers with a 50–100 nm diameter that mediate bidirectional transport between the ER and the Golgi. The distribution of proteins between the ER and Golgi complex is dynamic and is maintained by different coated vesicles. Their formation is driven by the assembly of...

Coat Assembly and GTPases01:33

Coat Assembly and GTPases

4.4K
Vesicles incorporate different coat protein subunits in different cell locations, which changes the properties of the coat, such as the shape and geometry of the transport vesicles. Thus, vesicle coat proteins also play a significant role in cargo selection.
Coat assembly depends on the local availability of phosphatidylinositol phosphates or PIPs and GTP-binding proteins. Adaptor proteins, which link the coat proteins to the membrane, bind to these PIPs and play a crucial role in controlling...

Pinching-off of Coated Vesicles01:32

Pinching-off of Coated Vesicles

4.2K
Vesicle budding is orchestrated by distinct cytosolic proteins such as adaptor proteins, coat proteins, and GTPases. To initiate vesicle budding, membrane-bending proteins containing crescent-shaped BAR domains bind to the lipid heads in the bilayer and distort the membrane to form a protein-coated vesicle bud. Adaptors proteins such as AP2 for clathrin-coated vesicles can nucleate on the deformed membrane. Finally, coat proteins such as clathrin or COPI and COPII assemble into a coat forming...

Sensitivity, Specificity, and Predicted Value

1.3K
In healthcare diagnostics, laboratory tests play a crucial role in identifying and diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions. However, interpreting test results is not always straightforward. An abnormal test result does not always confirm the presence of a disease, just as a normal result does not guarantee its absence. To assess the reliability of these diagnostic tools, healthcare practitioners rely on two key statistical indicators: sensitivity and specificity.
Sensitivity is the...

Sputum Studies II: Culture and Sensitivity

1.2K
Description
Sputum culture and sensitivity is a medical procedure used to diagnose bacterial infections in the respiratory tract and select the most appropriate antibiotics for treatment. This process involves analyzing sputum samples of thick and opaque secretions produced in the lungs and airways. These samples are collected from patients and then sent to the laboratory for analysis.
The test can identify various pathogens responsible for respiratory infections, including Streptococcus,...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Sensor Technology

Background:

  • Conventional two-dimensional (2D) sensors often lack the sensitivity required for precise measurements.
  • Developing advanced materials for enhanced sensor performance is crucial for various applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To fabricate and characterize three-dimensional (3D) sensors using reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-coated poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microballs.
  • To evaluate the sensitivity and performance of these 3D sensors compared to 2D RGO sensors for vacuum pressure detection.

Main Methods:

  • Preparation of RGO-coated PMMA microballs via a reaction-based assembly process.
  • Fabrication of two types of vacuum pressure sensors: a multiball sensor (lift-off method) and a single-ball sensor (air-blowing method).
  • Characterization of sensor resistance changes under vacuum pressures (<1 torr) and evaluation of reproducibility at various temperatures.

Main Results:

  • RGO coating improved sheet resistance and transmittance, indicating good adhesion.
  • Both 3D sensor types showed increased resistance at <1 torr due to graphene sheet bending.
  • The multiball sensor exhibited 4-5 times higher resistance change ratio (RRC) than 2D RGO sensors.
  • The single-ball sensor demonstrated excellent reproducibility and an exceptionally high sensitivity (~6,000 times greater than literature) at 100°C.

Conclusions:

  • The RGO-coated microball-based 3D sensors offer superior sensitivity for vacuum pressure sensing.
  • The enhanced sensitivity is attributed to increased surface area and geometric effects of the 3D structure.
  • These novel sensors hold promise for applications requiring highly sensitive pressure detection.
