Evolution of feedback loops in oscillatory systems

Feedback loops are major components of biochemical system. Many systems show multiple such (positive or negative) feedback loops. Nevertheless, very few quantitative analyses that address the question how such multiple feedback loops evolved. Based on publ ...

The ruthenium(II)-arene compound RAPTA-C induces apoptosis in EAC cells through mitochondrial and p53-JNK pathways

Paul Joseph Dyson, Christian Hartinger

An investigation of the mol. mechanism of the anticancer activity demonstrated by the ruthenium(II)-arene compd. [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2(pta)] (pta is 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), termed "RAPTA-C", in Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) bearing mice is descr ...

A G2-phase microtubule-damage response in fission yeast

Fernando Romero Balestra

Microtubules assume a variety of structures throughout the different stages of the cell cycle. Ensuring the correct assembly of such structures is essential to guarantee cell division. During mitosis, it is well established that the spindle assembly checkp ...

Mild hypothermia improves transient gene expression yields several fold in Chinese hamster ovary cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Stéphanie Tissot, Sarah Wulhfard, Sophie Bouchet, Jean Cevey

Large-scale transient gene expression (TGE) in mammalian cells is a rapid method to generate recombinant proteins, but the volumetric productivity for secreted proteins is still more than an order of magnitude lower than the yields typically achieved with ...

Homoeostasis between the GTPase Spg1p and its GAP in the regulation of cytokinesis in S. pombe

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp, Elena Cano

Cytokinesis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe begins at mitotic entry, when the site of division is defined by formation of the contractile acto-myosin ring (CAR) at the cell cortex. Contraction of the CAR and formation of the division septum are triggered at t ...

Chemical genetic analysis of the regulatory role of Cdc2p in the S. pombe septation initiation network

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp

The protein kinase Cdc2p is the master regulator of cell cycle progression in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. It is required both for entry into mitosis and for onset of DNA replication. Cdc2p must be inactivated to permit exit from mitosis, l ...

PLK-1 asymmetry contributes to asynchronous cell division of C. elegans embryos

Pierre Gönczy, Yemima Suryani Budirahardja

Acquisition of lineage-specific cell cycle duration is an important feature of metazoan development. In Caenorhabditis elegans, differences in cell cycle duration are already apparent in two-cell stage embryos, when the larger anterior blastomere AB divide ...

Controlled Exchange of Chromosomal Arms Reveals Principles Driving Telomere Interactions in Yeast

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage

The 32 telomeres in the budding yeast genome cluster in three to seven perinuclear foci. Although individual telomeres and telomeric foci are in constant motion, preferential juxtaposition of some telomeres has been scored. To examine the principles that g ...

Emergent fermions and anyons in the Kitaev model

We study the gapped phase of the Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice using perturbative continuous unitary transformations. The effective low-energy Hamiltonian is found to be an extended toric code with interacting anyons. High-energy excitations are em ...

Chk1 instability is coupled to mitotic cell death of p53-deficient cells in response to virus-induced DNA damage signaling

Peter Martin Beard, Michail Fragkos

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) DNA, by mimicking a stalled replication fork, provokes a DNA damage response that can arrest cells in the G2/M phase of the cell-cycle. This response depends strictly on DNA damage signaling kinases ATR and Chk1. Here, we used ...
