Open AccessIn vivo identification of Drosophila rhodopsin interaction partners by biotin proximity labeling
Proteins exert their function through protein–protein interactions. In Drosophila, G protein-coupled receptors like rhodopsin (Rh1) interact with a G protein to activate visual signal transduction and with arrest...

Ca2+ Signaling in Drosophila Photoreceptor Cells
In Drosophila photoreceptor cells, Ca2+ exerts regulatory functions that control the shape, duration, and amplitude of the light response. Ca2+ also orchestrates light adaptation allowing Drosophila to see in lig...

A novel double cryoballoon strategy in persistent atrial fibrillation: a pilot study
Cryoballoon technology is a promising technique in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. However, success rates in patients with persistent AF have not been convincing. There is a trend toward performi...

Thorax and Vasculature
While MRI is an imaging method of first choice in almost all parts of the human body its acceptance for thoracic imaging is rather low even today. One of the reasons is of course that CT has developed dramatic...

Myocardial tagging with steady state free precession techniques and semi-automatic postprocessing—impact on diagnostic value
Our aim was to determine the diagnostic value of myocardial tagging sequences with regard to the evaluable share of the cardiac cycle. Thirty-three patients were examined at 1.5 T using tagging sequences with ...

Code blue in the MR suite – a drill to rescue a patients with cardiac arrest from the MR scanner
Dobutamine stress MR (DSMR) is increasingly used in the clinical routine. Due to the limitations inherent to MR, i.e. the distance of the personnel to the patient during imaging, it is necessary to set up an e...

The PDZ assembled “transducisome” of microvillar photoreceptors: the TRP/TRPL problem
Two types of ion channels, TRP and TRPL, are activated upon light-absorption in rhabdomeral photoreceptor membranes of fly compound eyes. Whereas TRP is associated with other signaling proteins into a multipro...
