Injury-induced intestinal stem cell renewal requires capillary morphogenesis gene 2

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Julien Léonard Duc, Olivier Burri, Nathalie Brandenberg, Romain Guiet, Béatrice Kunz, Lucie Josepha Marie Bracq, Audrey Geneviève Chuat

Patients with the rare genetic disorder Hyaline Fibromatosis Syndrome (HFS) often succumb before 18 months of age due to severe diarrhea. As HFS is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding capillary morphogenesis gene 2 (CMG2), these sympt ...

SARS-CoV-2 hijacks a cell damage response, which induces transcription of a more efficient Spike S-acyltransferase

Didier Trono, Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Béatrice Kunz, Francisco De Magalhães Sarmento R De Mesquita, Lucie Josepha Marie Bracq, Joana Carlevaro Fita, Audrey Geneviève Chuat, Nattawadee Panyain

SARS-CoV-2 infection requires Spike protein-mediated fusion between the viral and cellular membranes. The fusogenic activity of Spike depends on its post-translational lipid modification by host S-acyltransferases, predominantly ZDHHC20. Previous observati ...

Virus-Mediated Cell-Cell Fusion

Lucie Josepha Marie Bracq

Cell-cell fusion between eukaryotic cells is a general process involved in many physiological and pathological conditions, including infections by bacteria, parasites, and viruses. As obligate intracellular pathogens, viruses use intracellular machineries ...
