Fluorescent fatty acid conjugates for live cell imaging of peroxisomes

Luc Reymond, Fabien Kuttler, Milena Maria Schuhmacher, Daria Korotkova, Manon Sandra Bardyn, Triana Amen

Peroxisomes are eukaryotic organelles that are essential for multiple metabolic pathways, including fatty acid oxidation, degradation of amino acids, and biosynthesis of ether lipids. Consequently, peroxisome dysfunction leads to pediatric-onset neurodegen ...

Modular segmentation, spatial analysis and visualization of volume electron microscopy datasets

Martin Weigert

Volume electron microscopy is the method of choice for the in situ interrogation of cellular ultrastructure at the nanometer scale, and with the increase in large raw image datasets generated, improving computational strategies for image segmentation and s ...

In situ architecture of Opa1-dependent mitochondrial cristae remodeling

Juan Cruz Landoni Martin

Cristae membrane state plays a central role in regulating mitochondrial function and cellular metabolism. The protein Optic atrophy 1 (Opa1) is an important crista remodeler that exists as two forms in the mitochondrion, a membrane-anchored long form (l-Op ...

Post-translational glycosylation diminishes α-synuclein pathology formation

Hilal Lashuel

O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is an endogenous form of glycosylation that alters the structure of alpha-synuclein amyloid fibrils and attenuates their pathogenetic properties. The modified fibrils have a significantly reduced ability to seed the ...

Long-Term, Single-Molecule Imaging of Proteins in Live Cells with Photoregulated Fluxional Fluorophores

Pablo Rivera Fuentes, Adam Miklos Eördögh, Annabell Martin

Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) can reveal nanometric details of biological samples, but its high phototoxicity hampers long-term imaging in live specimens. A significant part of this phototoxicity stems from repeated irradiations that are n ...

Reduced ech-6 expression attenuates fat-induced lifespan shortening in C. elegans

Richardus Houtkooper, Wen Gao, Yuan Liu

Deregulated energy homeostasis represents a hallmark of aging and results from complex gene-by-environment interactions. Here, we discovered that reducing the expression of the gene ech-6 encoding enoyl-CoA hydratase remitted fat diet-induced deleterious e ...

GCN2 adapts protein synthesis to scavenging-dependent growth

Pancreatic cancer cells with limited access to free amino acids can grow by scavenging extracellular protein. In a murine model of pancreatic cancer, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR screen for genes required for scavenging-dependent growth. The screen id ...

In-Cell Quantification of Drugs by Magic-Angle Spinning Dynamic Nuclear Polarization NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Pierrick Berruyer, Andrea Bertarello

The determination of intracellular drug concentrations can provide a better understanding of the drug function and efficacy. Ideally, this should be performed nondestructively, with no modification of either the drug or the target, and with the capability ...

BET1 variants establish impaired vesicular transport as a cause for muscular dystrophy with epilepsy

Matteo Dal Peraro, Mykola Dergai, Ying Hu

BET1 is required, together with its SNARE complex partners GOSR2, SEC22b, and Syntaxin-5 for fusion of endoplasmic reticulum-derived vesicles with the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) and the cis-Golgi. Here, we report three individuals, from two ...

Golgi maturation-dependent glycoenzyme recycling controls glycosphingolipid biosynthesis and cell growth via GOLPH3

Giovanni D'Angelo, Laura Capolupo, Anthony Vocat, Riccardo Rizzo

Glycosphingolipids are important components of the plasma membrane where they modulate the activities of membrane proteins including signalling receptors. Glycosphingolipid synthesis relies on competing reactions catalysed by Golgi-resident enzymes during ...
