A Microfluidic Platform Enables Large-Scale Single-Cell Screening to Identify Genes Involved in Bacterial Persistence

Persistent cells, representing a small fraction of a bacterial population, are refractory to antibiotic therapy. It is a phenotypic transient state. The underlying mechanisms of persistence remain largely unknown, but even divergent hypotheses agree on a f ...

Identification and Characterization of Tyrosine Kinase Nonreceptor 2 Mutations in Leukemia through Integration of Kinase Inhibitor Screening and Genomic Analysis

Oliver Hantschel, Sina Maren Reckel

The amount of genomic information about leukemia cells currently far exceeds our overall understanding of the precise genetic events that ultimately drive disease development and progression. Effective implementation of personalized medicine will require t ...

Potential Direct Regulators of the Drosophila yellow Gene Identified by Yeast One-Hybrid and RNAi Screens

Bart Deplancke

The regulation of gene expression controls development, and changes in this regulation often contribute to phenotypic evolution. Drosophila pigmentation is a model system for studying evolutionary changes in gene regulation, with differences in expression ...

[Mendelian randomisation - a genetic approach to an epidemiological method]

Mats Julius Stensrud

BACKGROUND Genetic information is becoming more easily available, and rapid progress is being made in developing methods of illuminating issues of interest. Mendelian randomisation makes it possible to study causes of disease using observational data. The ...

Quantitative single-cell analysis of S. cerevisiae using a microfluidic live-cell imaging platform

Johannes Becker

Genome-wide manipulations and measurements have made huge progress over the last decades. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a well-studied eukaryotic model organism, homologous recombination allows for systematic deletion or alteration of a majority of its gene ...

Epigenetic Alterations in Alzheimer's Disease

Johannes Gräff, Jose Vicente Sanchez Mut

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the major cause of dementia in Western societies. It progresses asymptomatically during decades before being belatedly diagnosed when therapeutic strategies have become unviable. Although several genetic alterations have been as ...

Functional genomics lead to new therapies in follicular lymphoma

Elisa Oricchio

Recent technological advances allow analysis of genomic changes in cancer in unprecedented detail. The next challenge is to prioritize the multitude of genetic aberrations found and identify therapeutic opportunities. We recently completed a study that ill ...

Role and regulation of the melanization reaction in Drosophila immune response

Olivier Binggeli

In arthropods, the melanization reaction consists in the rapid synthesis of melanin at the site of infection and injury. A key enzyme in the melanization process is phenoloxidase (PO), which catalyzes the oxidation of phenols to quinones that subsequently ...

Topology and Dynamics of the Zebrafish Segmentation Clock Core Circuit

Bart Deplancke, Andrew Charles Oates, Sebastian Maerkl, Daniele Soroldoni, Alina Isakova

During vertebrate embryogenesis, the rhythmic and sequential segmentation of the body axis is regulated by an oscillating genetic network termed the segmentation clock. We describe a new dynamic model for the core pace-making circuit of the zebrafish segme ...
