Stable Ta2O5 nanotubes decorated by PbS by the SILAR method for photocatalytic dye degradation
Tantalum oxide Ta2O5 nanotubes (NTs) were prepared by electrochemical anodization and were decorated with lead sulfide nanoparticles PbS (NPs) by Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction commonly known as the SILAR method. The PbS NPs/Ta2O5 NTs were ...
2023Mitochondrial cristae modeled as an out-of-equilibrium membrane driven by a proton field
Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol
As the places where most of the fuel of the cell, namely, ATP, is synthesized, mitochondria are crucial organelles in eukaryotic cells. The shape of the invaginations of the mitochondria inner membrane, known as a crista, has been identified as a signature ...
2020Assimilation, translocation, and utilization of carbon between photosynthetic symbiotic dinoflagellates and their planktic foraminifera host
Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin
Some species of planktic foraminifera inhabiting oligotrophic surface water environments are in an obligate symbiotic relationship with dinoflagellate microalgae, which can assimilate carbon (C) through photosynthesis. However, the mechanism and dynamics o ...
2018NAR Breakthrough Article Crystal structure of Hop2-Mnd1 and mechanistic insights into its role in meiotic recombination
Matteo Dal Peraro, Alexandra Styliani Kalantzi
In meiotic DNA recombination, the Hop2-Mnd1 complex promotes Dmc1-mediated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) invasion into homologous chromosomes to form a synaptic complex by a yet-unclear mechanism. Here, the crystal structure of Hop2-Mnd1 reveals that it form ...
Oxford University Press2015An unexpected role for mixotrophs in the response of peatland carbon cycling to climate warming
Alexandre Buttler, Edward Mitchell, Luca Bragazza, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Constant Signarbieux, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Enrique Lara, Robert Thomas Edmund Mills, Bertrand Fournier
Mixotrophic protists are increasingly recognized for their significant contribution to carbon (C) cycling. As phototrophs they contribute to photosynthetic C fixation, whilst as predators of decomposers, they indirectly influence organic matter decompositi ...
Nature Publishing Group2015Functional traits as a new approach for interpreting testate amoeba palaeo-records in peatlands and assessing the causes and consequences of past changes in species composition
Edward Mitchell, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Enrique Lara, Bertrand Fournier
Subfossil remains of various groups of organisms preserved in peat and sediment archives are commonly used to infer past environmental changes using transfer functions based on species composition. However, the changes in community structure can also be ex ...
Sage Publications Ltd2015Plant functional diversity drives niche-size-structure of dominant microbial consumers along a poor to extremely rich fen gradient
Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek
- Plant community composition is recognized more and more for playing an important role in ecosystem processes, such as C cycling. In particular, plant functional type (PFT) composition seems to have a key regulatory role, yet the underlying mechanisms in ...
Holocene changes in climate and land use drove shifts in the diversity of testate amoebae in a subalpine pond
Testate amoebae that inhabit peat are sensitive indicators of water table position. In this study, we used testate amoebae in sediments from a mire in the western Alps (Lac du Thyl) to: (1) reconstruct the hydrology of the site over the last 7,000 years, ( ...
Springer2013Ammonia exposure promotes algal biomass in an ombrotrophic peatland
Nitrogen pollution affects many peatlands with consequences for their biodiversity and ecosystem function. Microorganisms control nutrient cycling and constitute most of the biodiversity of peatlands but their response to nitrogen is poorly characterised a ...
Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd2013To What Extent Do Food Preferences Explain the Trophic Position of Heterotrophic and Mixotrophic Microbial Consumers in a Sphagnum Peatland?
Edward Mitchell, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Caroline Meyer
Although microorganisms are the primary drivers of biogeochemical cycles, the structure and functioning of microbial food webs are poorly studied. This is the case in Sphagnum peatlands, where microbial communities play a key role in the global carbon cycl ...
