In studies of the outstanding salt tolerance of the unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina,
we isolated a cDNA for a salt-inducible mRNA encoding a protein homologous to plant β-…

The mechanisms allowing proliferation of the unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina in up
to saturating NaCl concentrations are only partially understood at present. Previously, the …

The alga Dunaliella salina is outstanding is its ability to withstand extremely high salinities.
To uncover mechanisms underlying salt tolerance, a search was carried out for salt-induced …

The correct navigation of axons to their targets depends on guidance molecules in the extra‐cellular
environment. Differential responsiveness to a particular guidance cue is largely an …

Protein molecular adaptation to drastically shifting salinities was studied in dCA II, an α-type
carbonic anhydrase (EC 4.2.1.1) from the exceptionally salt-tolerant unicellular green alga …

Apoptotic cells expose Phosphatidylserine (PS), that serves as an “eat me” signal for
engulfing cells. Previous studies have shown that PS also marks degenerating axonsduring …

Diverse neuronal populations with distinct cellular morphologies coordinate the complex
function of the nervous system. Establishment of distinct neuronal morphologies critically …

During embryonic development, axons can gain and lose sensitivity to guidance cues, and
this flexibility is essential for the correct wiring of the nervous system. Yet, the underlying …

During development, neurons grow axons that elongate over substantial distances and
branch for proper tissue innervation (Vaarmann et al, 2016). In humans, the axons of the …

A 60-kDa, salt-inducible, internally duplicated α-type carbonic anhydrase (Dca) is associated
with the plasma membrane of the extremely salt-tolerant, unicellular, green alga Dunaliella …
