Tuning SAS-6 architecture with monobodies impairs distinct steps of centriole assembly

Georg Fantner, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Tatiana Favez, Oliver Hantschel, Virginie Hamel, Niccolo Banterle, Santiago Harald Andany

Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved multi-protein organelles essential for forming cilia and centrosomes. Centriole biogenesis begins with self-assembly of SAS-6 proteins into 9-fold symmetrical ring polymers, which then stack into a cartwheel that sca ...

Functional kleptoplasts intermediate incorporation of carbon and nitrogen in cells of the Sacoglossa sea slug Elysia viridis

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Michael Kühl

Some sacoglossan sea slugs incorporate intracellular functional algal chloroplasts, a process termed kleptoplasty. "Stolen" chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) can remain photosynthetically active up to several months, contributing to animal nutrition. Whether thi ...

Heterotrophy in the earliest gut: a single-cell view of heterotrophic carbon and nitrogen assimilation in sponge-microbe symbioses

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Sponges are the oldest known extant animal-microbe symbiosis. These ubiquitous benthic animals play an important role in marine ecosystems in the cycling of dissolved organic matter (DOM), the largest source of organic matter on Earth. The conventional vie ...

NIR-emitting and photo-thermal active nanogold as mitochondria-specific probes

Theo Lasser, Jérôme Extermann, Miguel Sison

We report a bioinspired multifunctional albumin derived polypeptide coating comprising grafted poly(ethylene oxide) chains, multiple copies of the HIV TAT derived peptide enabling cellular uptake as well as mitochondria targeting triphenyl-phosphonium (TPP ...

Membrane scission driven by the PROPPIN Atg18

Hilal Lashuel, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Andreas Mayer

Sorting, transport, and autophagic degradation of proteins in endosomes and lysosomes, as well as the division of these organelles, depend on scission of membrane-bound tubulo-vesicular carriers. How scission occurs is poorly understood, but family protein ...

Structured light enables biomimetic swimming and versatile locomotion of photoresponsive soft microrobots

Peer Fischer, Tian Qiu, Hao Zeng

Microorganisms move in challenging environments by periodic changes in body shape. In contrast, current artificial microrobots cannot actively deform, exhibiting at best passive bending under external fields. Here, by taking advantage of the wireless, scal ...

Computational support for a scaffolding mechanism of centriole assembly

Pierre Gönczy, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel

Centrioles are essential for forming cilia, flagella and centrosomes. Successful centriole assembly requires proteins of the SAS-6 family, which can form oligomeric ring structures with ninefold symmetry in vitro. While important progress has been made in ...

Importance of Unpaired Electrons in Organic Electronics

Natalie Renuka Banerji, Mariateresa Scarongella

The first observation that PBBTPD, a low bandgap, ambipolar conjugated donor-acceptor (DA) polymer based on benzobisthiadiazole (BBT), possesses an open-shell singlet ground state as well as a thermally accessible triplet state is described. Similarly, int ...
