Quotes
“I am very pleased to be working with PhysMath Central as I believe open access is the future for publication of all bio-related research. I am also excited at the prospect that online publishing brings the ability to post video and raw data as supplementary to each article, and hope our authors will make extensive use of this ability.”

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was established to determine the assembly of the Hypoxia-Inducible-Factor-1 complex and to study the interaction of the alpha-subunit of HIF-1 with O2-sensing hydroxylase. New software was developed to improve the quality and reliability of FRET measurements.

The voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC, also known as mitochondrial porin) is the major transport channel mediating the transport of metabolites, including ATP, across the mitochondrial outer membrane. In this study we show that whereas hVDAC1 and hVDAC2 are localized predominantly within the same distinct domains in the outer membrane, hVDAC3 is mostly uniformly distributed over the surface of the mitochondrion.
