Question

What is auto-fluorescence? Based upon results, which signaling pathways are involved in regulating motility? Do these pathways normally enhance or suppress motility? What happened to motility in response to the nitrate treatment? Did this agree or disagree with your signaling pathway tests? Do you think that nutrient sensing relates to any of these signaling processes or not? (If so, which one?) Many agricultural and sewage pollutants that runoff into lakes, streams and the ocean are high in Nitrogen. Ammonia and nitrate are nitrogen-containing compounds. Based upon your results, what effect might you expect agricultural and sewage runoff to have on the biology of a coral reef?

Autofluorescence refers to the natural fluorescence occurring in the cells. A number of cellular organelles give autofluorescence, they include mitochondria, lysosome chloroplasts etc.

The autofluorescence is due to the fluorescence from the cyclic ring compounds in the cells. Examples include NAD(P)H, Riboflavin, and aromatic amino acids
