TL;DR: These guidelines are presented for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

TL;DR: This mini-review focuses on recent strategies and their advantages for systematic engineering of yeast strains for effective protein secretion.

TL;DR: Critical roles of a novel druggable target, polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyl transferase 6 (GALNT6), which is upregulated in a great majority of breast cancers and encodes a glycosyltransferase responsible for initiating mucin-type O-glycosylation are reported.

TL;DR: A new mechanism including an oxazolinium ion intermediate has been proposed for the endoglycosidase-catalyzed hydrolysis or transglycosylation of Man beta1-4GlcNAcbeta1-O-pNP 8 (or -(Dns)Asn-OH).

TL;DR: In this paper, variable phase-contrast fluorescence spectrometers were used on fluorescently stained cells to achieve high two-dimensional spatial resolution, where phase shift interferometry by autocorrelation interference made it possible to measure fluorescence spectrum in the field of view without the separation of wavelengths, as in the case of conventional dispersive spectrometer.
