Chemotaxis assays are experimental tools for evaluation of chemotactic ability of prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells. A wide variety of techniques have been...

highlights the need to understand how chemotaxis functions in the context of marine microenvironments. Chemotaxis hinges on the stochastic binding/unbinding...

The methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins (MCP, also aspartate receptor) are a family of transmembrane receptors that mediate chemotactic response in certain...

invertebrates the guidance is done by chemotaxis. In the case of mammals, it appears to be done by chemotaxis, thermotaxis and rheotaxis. Since the discovery...

creates a cascade of chemical reactions that promotes opsonization, chemotaxis, and agglutination, and produces the MAC. The kinin system generates proteins...

Bacterial chemotaxis plays an important role in establishing this symbiotic relationship. Azorhizobium caulinodans is a genome and it contains chemotaxis gene...

bourgeonal imitated the role of progesterone in stimulating sperm to swim (chemotaxis), a process unrelated to odor reception. All parts of the plant are potentially...

cytokines, which trigger neutrophils to seek the site of infection by chemotaxis. There, the neutrophils release granules, which destroy the bacteria....

neutrophils migrate toward the site of inflammation in a process called chemotaxis and are usually the first cells to arrive at the scene of infection. Macrophages...

turning. Chemotaxis is a response elicited by chemicals: that is, a response to a chemical concentration gradient. For example, chemotaxis in response...

knock-out mast cells were cultured and they observed a decreased level of chemotaxis in these cells compared to wildtype mast cells. OPN was also found to...

phenomenon of chemotaxis in guiding and delivering a drug to a specific tissue or cell within the body. Thus, similar to how organisms use chemotaxis, researchers...

There are three steps to fertilisation that ensure species-specificity: Chemotaxis Sperm activation/acrosomal reaction Sperm/egg adhesion Consideration as...
