Pde-Constrained Optimization For Nuclear Mechanics

We propose an image based PDE-constrained optimisation framework to compute the dynamical quantities of a cell nucleus undergoing deformation. It allows retrieving the displacement, strain and stress at each pixel of the nuclear domain, as well as the trac ...

Mitocellular communication: Shaping health and disease

Johan Auwerx, Sébastien Robert Victor Herzig, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis

Throughout the animal kingdom, mitochondria are the only organelles that retain their own genome and the transcription and translation machineries that are all essential for energy harvesting. Mitochondria have developed a complex communication network, al ...

Nuclear Proteomics Uncovers Diurnal Regulatory Landscapes in Mouse Liver

Felix Naef, Loïc Dayon, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Martin Kussmann, Daniel Alain Dominique Marie Mauvoisin, Jingkui Wang, Florian Atger, Federico Sizzano

Diurnal oscillations of gene expression controlled by the circadian clock and its connected feeding rhythm enable organisms to coordinate their physiologies with daily environmental cycles. While available techniques yielded crucial insights into regulatio ...

Dynein-Based Accumulation of Membranes Regulates Nuclear Expansion in Xenopus laevis Egg Extracts

Christoph Merten

Nuclear size changes dynamically during development and has long been observed to correlate with the space surrounding the nucleus, as well as with the volume of the cell. Here we combine an in vitro cell-free system of Xenopus laevis egg extract with micr ...

Proteins Binding to and Regulating Human Telomeric Transcripts

Katarzyna Sikora

Telomere are the protective terminal structures of linear chromosomes. The repetitive TTAGGG sequences are bound by the dedicated shelterin complex, as well as by histones carrying modifications characteristic of silent chromatin. Like the centromeric hete ...

Adeno-Associated Virus Activates an Innate Immune Response in Normal Human Cells but Not in Osteosarcoma Cells

Peter Martin Beard

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a small, DNA-containing dependovirus with promising potential as a gene delivery vehicle. Given the variety of applications of AAV-based vectors in the treatment of genetic disorders, numerous studies have focused on the imm ...

Dynamic control of cajal body number during zebrafish embryogenesis

Andrew Charles Oates

The Cajal body (CB) is an evolutionarily conserved nuclear subcompartment, enriched in components of the RNA processing machinery. The composition and dynamics of CBs in cells of living organisms is not well understood. Here we establish the zebrafish embr ...

Pre-replication complex organization in the atypical DNA replication cycle of Plasmodium falciparum: characterization of the mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) complex formation

The overall organization of cell division in Plasmodium is unique compared to that observed in model organisms because DNA replicates more than once per cell cycle at several points of its life cycle. The sequencing of the Plasmodium genome has also reveal ...

The positioning and dynamics of origins of replication in the budding yeast nucleus

Thierry Laroche

We have analyzed the subnuclear position of early- and late-firing origins of DNA replication in intact yeast cells using fluorescence in situ hybridization and green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged chromosomal domains. In both cases, origin position was ...

MAP kinase signaling induces nuclear reorganization in budding yeast

Thierry Laroche

BACKGROUND: During the mating pheromone response in budding yeast, activation of a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) cascade results in well-characterized changes in cytoskeletal organization and gene expression. Spatial reorganization of genes ...
