Tubulin engineering by semi-synthesis reveals that polyglutamylation directs detyrosination

Pierre Gönczy, Beat Fierz, Luc Reymond, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Cédric Pourroy, Po-Han Chang, Nora Guidotti, Ninad Dilip Agashe, Timothy Matthias Reichart, Eduard Hubert Theodoor Marius Ebberink, Fabian Zacharias Schneider

Microtubules, a critical component of the cytoskeleton, carry post-translational modifications (PTMs) that are important for the regulation of key cellular processes. Long-lived microtubules, in neurons particularly, exhibit both detyrosination of a-tubuli ...

Bioengineering human mini-intestines with in vivo-like complexity and function

Olga Mitrofanova

Biological research heavily relies on the use of animal models, which has made it difficult to answer specific questions about human biology and disease. However, with the advent of human organoids - miniature versions of tissues generated in 3D human stem ...

Structural basis of drug recognition by the multidrug transporter ABCG2

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Dongchun Ni

ABCG2 is an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter whose function affects the pharmacokinetics of drugs and contributes to multidrug resistance of cancer cells. While its interaction with the endogenous substrate estrone-3-sulfate (E1S) has been elucidated ...

Seismic response of RC buildings subjected to fling-step in the near-fault region

Pierino Lestuzzi, Amin Karbassi

Fling-step and forward directivity are the major consequences of near-fault ground motions as they can impose unexpected seismic demands on structures located in the vicinity of the fault. The pernicious effect of forward directivity on the seismic behavio ...

Interference of silver nanoparticles with essential metal homeostasis in a novel enterohepatic fish in vitro system

Kristin Schirmer

Silver nanoparticle toxicity has been extensively studied in several vertebrate cells. Its correlation with cellular essential metal homeostasis, however, has largely been overlooked. In this study, we used a novel in vitro model of a fish enterohepatic sy ...

Oestrogen receptor alpha AF-1 and AF-2 domains have cell population-specific functions in the mammary epithelium

Cathrin Brisken, Georgios Sflomos, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan, Valentina Scabia, Patrik Aouad, Dalya Ataca, Stéphanie Cagnet

Oestrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha) is a transcription factor with ligand-independent and ligand-dependent activation functions (AF)-1 and -2. Oestrogens control postnatal mammary gland development acting on a subset of mammary epithelial cells (MECs), ter ...

Cytosolic delivery and characterization of monobodies interfering with SH2 domain-phosphotyrosine interactions

Nadine Eliane Schmit

Targeted cancer therapy is a very promising concept; however, small molecule inhibitors only exist for a limited number of oncoproteins and resistance development limits their clinical use. Different engineered non-antibody scaffolds are being explored to ...

Optofluidic nanoplasmonic biosensor for label-free live cell analysis in real time

Hatice Altug, Xiaokang Li, Filiz Yesilköy, Alexander Belushkin, Maria Soler Aznar

Cell signaling activities play a critical role in physiological and disease processes. The analysis of the tumor microenvironment or the immune system activation is nowadays providing valuable insights towards disease understanding and novel therapies deve ...

Microbial communities associated with uranium in-situ recovery mining process are related to acid mine drainage assemblages

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Pierre Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Thomas Coral

A large fraction (47%) of the world's uranium is mined by a technique called “In Situ Recovery” (ISR). This mining technique involves the injection of a leaching fluid (acidic or alkaline) into a uranium-bearing aquifer and the pumping of the resulting sol ...

Mediated water electrolysis in biphasic systems

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Heron Vrubel, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Lucie Josette Renée Rivier

The concept of efficient electrolysis by linking photoelectrochemical biphasic H2 evolution and water oxidation processes in the cathodic and anodic compartments of an H-cell, respectively, is introduced. Overpotentials at the cathode and anode are minimis ...
