In this premiere episode of "The God Hook," host Carol Costello introduces the chilling story of Richard Beasley, infamously known as the Ohio Craigslist Killer. In previously unreleased jailhouse recordings, Beasley portrays himself as a devout Christian, concealing his manipulative and predatory behavior. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Beasley's deceitfulness extends beyond the victims he buried in shallow graves.

High-Throughput and Wide-Range Protein Concentration Determination of Monoclonal Antibodies 27:57

27:57

In this episode of Listen In, explore high-throughput and wide-range protein concentration analysis that can deliver a 20-fold improvement in time and budget savings. Protein concentration is an obligatory critical quality attribute necessary to determine total protein content in biopharmaceutical formulations. Concentration determination is necessary before many downstream assays. A UV-based spectrophotometric assay using the protein’s extinction coefficient is the most typical method. Conventional UV methods or a specialized approach using variable pathlength slope spectroscopy could take one day to measure 15 samples in triplicate. Larger batches would require multiple analysts for a single-day turnaround time. With vast studies spanning multiple projects, protein concentration analysis becomes a key deliverable before all other methods can be performed. Thus, efficient rapid concentration analysis with a minimal volume requirement is essential. Hit play to learn how the Lunatic (Unchained Labs, Pleasanton, CA) offers rapid, plate-based concentration measurement with minimal prep and sample volume requirements. It utilizes only two microliters per sample, can analyze 96 wells in less than 12 minutes, and provides accurate measurements over a broad concentration range, from 0.03 mg/mL to 176 mg/mL.

The fundamental cellular mechanisms of internalization and trafficking are crucial to many areas of cell biology, especially the proper function of therapeutic antibodies. Antibodies intended for use as antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) should specifically bind to target cells and rapidly internalize via endocytosis. However, the ability to study these processes has historically been limited by the lack of tools that directly monitor the internalization and subsequent catabolism of extracellular material. In this episode, get a demo of rapid, high-throughput methods to screen for antibody internalization. You will also hear about techniques to directly visualize the internalization of therapeutic antibodies and ADCs in live cells for structure-activity relationship studies.

Visualizing Membrane Dynamics by Electron Microscopy 40:30

1 year پیش40:30

40:30

Explore how the latest electron microscopy techniques and volume imaging can capture fast, dynamic membrane and vesicle remodeling events during synaptic transmission at the ultrastructural level. Neurons communicate at specialized junctions, or synapses, via chemical messengers called neurotransmitters. Within a millisecond of neuronal stimulation, synaptic vesicles packed with neurotransmitters fuse with the presynaptic plasma membrane and release their contents. These neurotransmitters then bind and activate receptors on the postsynaptic membrane, resulting in cell-to-cell signal transmission. Then, to sustain this neurotransmission, new vesicles are recruited to the release sites. In this episode of Listen In , we dive into the powerful new technology to spatially and temporally investigate these dynamics.

Understanding molecular interactions in living cells is one of the key elements to deciphering the molecular mechanisms underpinning most cellular functions. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is the gold standard for studying protein-protein interactions. Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) allows for a straightforward quantification of FRET based on the behavior of donor-only fluorescence. Join Dr. Padilla-Parra in this episode of Listen In to learn about some of the limitations of classical FRET approaches, how much information you can harness from FRET, and how lifetime-based non-fitting approaches such as minimal fraction of interacting donors (mFD) can provide a direct readout of protein-protein interactions in the cellular environment over time.

Imaging GPCR Activity: Unravelling Mechanisms from Molecules to Morphology 1:08:22

40 weeks پیش1:08:22

1:08:22

Precise control of cellular communication and signaling is crucial for every physiological system, with G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs, the largest family of signaling receptors) playing a central role as essential molecular sensors of a cell’s environment. Because of their diverse physiological and pathophysiological roles, GPCRs are also major drug targets. Our understanding of GPCR signaling has evolved from single receptors at the cell surface activating specific heterotrimeric G protein pathways, to an increasingly complex receptor signaling system. However, the complexity of GPCR signaling is translated to specific cellular and physiological responses is still unclear. In this episode, we explore some of the latest endeavors to uncover GPCR signaling mechanisms through a wide range of imaging applications, from analyzing single molecules to the identification of new subcellular signal platforms.
