A satellite DNA array barcodes chromosome 7 and regulates totipotency via ZFP819
Didier Trono, Gabriela Ecco, Helen Mary Rowe
Mammalian genomes are a battleground for genetic conflict between repetitive elements and KRAB-zinc finger proteins (KZFPs). We asked whether KZFPs can regulate cell fate by using ZFP819, which targets a satellite DNA array, ZP3AR. ZP3AR coats megabase reg ...
2022TRIM37 prevents formation of centriolar protein assemblies by regulating Centrobin
Pierre Gönczy, Coralie Busso, Benita Wolf, Fernando Romero Balestra, Tessa Vivianne Averink, Alizée Buff
TRIM37 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase mutated in Mulibrey nanism, a disease with impaired organ growth and increased tumor formation. TRIM37 depletion from tissue culture cells results in supernumerary foci bearing the centriolar protein Centrin. Here, we chara ...
ELIFE SCIENCES PUBLICATIONS LTD2021Phenotypic plasticity versus ecotypic differentiation under recurrent summer drought in two drought-tolerant pine species
Despite worldwide reports of high tree mortality, growing evidence indicates that many tree species are well adapted to survive repeated dry spells. The drought resilience of trees is related to their phenotypic plasticity and ecotypic differentiation. Whe ...
WILEY2021Silk Hydrogels as Soft Substrates for Neural Tissue Engineering
Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Federico Tortelli, Amy Marie Hopkins
There is great need for soft biomaterials that match the stiffness of human tissues for tissue engineering and regeneration. Hydrogels are frequently employed for extracellular matrix functionalization and to provide appropriate mechanical cues. It is chal ...
Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh2013Malachite Green Interferes with Postantibiotic Recovery of Mycobacteria
John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Ekaterina Gelman
The genus Mycobacterium comprises slow-growing species with generation times ranging from hours to weeks. The protracted incubation time before colonies appear on solid culture medium can result in overgrowth by faster-growing microorganisms. To prevent co ...
2012Spindle positioning in human cells relies on proper centriole formation and on the microcephaly proteins CPAP and STIL
Pierre Gönczy, Petr Strnad, Debora Keller, Fernando Romero Balestra, Gregor Kohlmaier
Patients with MCPH (autosomal recessive primary microcephaly) exhibit impaired brain development, presumably due to the compromised function of neuronal progenitors. Seven MCPH loci have been identified, including one that encodes centrosome protein 4.1 as ...
Company of Biologists20113D collagen cultures under well-defined dynamic strain: A novel strain device with a porous elastomeric support
Melody Swartz, Alice Anna Tomei, Federica Boschetti
The field of mechanobiology has grown tremendously in the past few decades, and it is now well accepted that dynamic stresses and strains can impact cell and tissue organization, cell-cell and cell-matrix communication, matrix remodeling, cell proliferatio ...
Wiley-Blackwell2009Tissue micromanipulation in zebrafish embryos
Although a common approach in large vertebrate embryos such as chick or frog, manipulation at the tissue level is only rarely applied to zebrafish embryos. Despite its relatively small size, the zebrafish embryo can be readily used for micromanipulations s ...
2009Induction of A9 dopaminergic neurons from neural stem cells improves motor function in an animal model of Parkinsons disease
Neural stem cells (NSCs) are widely endorsed as a cell source for replacement strategies in neurodegenerative disease. However, their usefulness is currently limited by the inability to induce specific neurotransmitter phenotypes in these cells. In order t ...
