Enhancing Chondrocyte Biosynthetic Activities: Harnessing the Power of Loading-Induced Evolved Temperature

Chondrocytes within articular cartilage possess the capacity to perceive and react to signals generated by the typical load-bearing actions of daily life, such as walking or running. Articular cartilage is predominantly oriented toward compression-based fu ...

Antagonistic interactions among structured domains in the multivalent Bicc1-ANKS3-ANKS6 protein network govern phase transitioning of target mRNAs

Daniel Constam, Benjamin Marcel Daniel Rothé, Céline Gagnieux, Simon Fortier, Céline Emmanuelle Schmuziger

The growing number of diseases linked to aberrant phase transitioning of ribonucleoproteins highlights the need to uncover how the interplay between multivalent protein and RNA interactions is regulated. Cytoplasmic granules of the RNA binding protein Bica ...

Diverse cell-specific patterns of alternative polyadenylation in Drosophila

Bart Deplancke, Sandy Lee

Most genes in higher eukaryotes express isoforms with distinct 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs), generated by alternative polyadenylation (APA). Since 3' UTRs are predominant locations of post-transcriptional regulation, APA can render such programs condi ...

Fluid flow-induced left-right asymmetric decay of Dand5 mRNA in the mouse embryo requires a Bicc1-Ccr4 RNA degradation complex

Daniel Constam, Benjamin Marcel Daniel Rothé

Molecular left-right (L-R) asymmetry is established at the node of the mouse embryo as a result of the sensing of a leftward fluid flow by immotile cilia of perinodal crown cells and the consequent degradation of Dand5 mRNA on the left side. We here examin ...

The phase separation-dependent FUS interactome reveals nuclear and cytoplasmic function of liquid-liquid phase separation

Helen Lindsay

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins and RNAs has emerged as the driving force underlying the formation of membrane-less organelles. Such biomolecular condensates have various biological functions and have been linked to disease. The protein F ...

Enteric infection induces Lark-mediated intron retention at the 5 ' end of Drosophila genes

Bart Deplancke, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Michael Vincent Frochaux, Dani Osman, Tommaso Andreani

Background RNA splicing is a key post-transcriptional mechanism that generates protein diversity and contributes to the fine-tuning of gene expression, which may facilitate adaptation to environmental challenges. Here, we employ a systems approach to study ...

Development of novel methods and tools to decipher the huntingtin post-translation modifications code

Anass Chiki

Huntington's disease (HD) is a fatal genetic neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the Huntingtin gene of more than 36 repeats. This repeat is translated into a polyglutamine (polyQ) stretch within the first exon-encoded region of ...

Generation of Native, Untagged Huntingtin Exon1 Monomer and Fibrils Using a SUMO Fusion Strategy

Hilal Lashuel, Jonathan Jean-Pierre Ricci, Anass Chiki, Andreas Reif

Huntington’s Disease (HD) is an inherited fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by a CAG expansion (36) in the first exon of the HD gene, resulting in the expression of the Huntingtin protein (Htt) or N-terminal fragments thereof with an expanded polygl ...

RNA velocity of single cells

Gioele La Manno

RNA abundance is a powerful indicator of the state of individual cells. Single-cell RNA sequencing can reveal RNA abundance with high quantitative accuracy, sensitivity and throughput 1 . However, this approach captures only a static snapshot at a point in ...

Temperature regulates splicing efficiency of the cold-inducible RNA-binding protein gene Cirbp

Felix Naef, Saeed Omidi Klishami

In mammals, body temperature fluctuates diurnally around a mean value of 36 degrees C-37 degrees C. Despite the small differences between minimal and maximal values, body temperature rhythms can drive robust cycles in gene expression in cultured cells and, ...
