Regulation of sedimentation rate shapes the evolution of multicellularity in a close unicellular relative of animals

Significant increases in sedimentation rate accompany the evolution of multicellularity. These increases should lead to rapid changes in ecological distribution, thereby affecting the costs and benefits of multicellularity and its likelihood to evolve. How ...

New and improved methods for integrated models of metabolism and gene expression

Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

The beginning of the 21st century was marked by the advent of disruptive technologies, which ushered an era of groundbreaking advances in fundamental sciences, carried by the great pace at which computational capabilities spread and evolved. But the new ce ...

A genome-scale metabolic model of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that integrates expression constraints and reaction thermodynamics

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Maria Masid Barcon, Mohammadomid Oftadeh, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Eukaryotic organisms play an important role in industrial biotechnology, from the production of fuels and commodity chemicals to therapeutic proteins. To optimize these industrial systems, a mathematical approach can be used to integrate the description of ...

Functional and structural characterization of Serratia marcescens ExbB: determinants of the interaction with HasB/TonB

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

ExbBD is part of a cytoplasmic membrane molecular motor driven by the proton-motive force. It belongs to the larger family of motors involved in nutriment import across the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria (ExbBD), flagellar rotation (MotAB) or lat ...

Single-cell lipidomics reveals a role for cell-to-cell sphingolipid heterogeneity in fibroblast activation

Laura Capolupo

Cell-to-cell variability plays a key role in tissue patterning by setting initial asymmetry that primes cell fate decisions. Fluctuations in the activity of regulatory molecules can commit individual cells to divergent differentiation pathways, and cell-to ...

The social nature of mitochondria: Implications for human health

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

Sociality has profound evolutionary roots and is observed from unicellular organisms to multicellular animals. In line with the view that social principles apply across levels of biological complexity, a growing body of data highlights the remarkable socia ...

Advanced Neurotechnologies for the Restoration of Motor Function

Silvestro Micera, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term disability. Advanced technological solutions ("neurotechnologies'') exploiting robotic systems and electrodes that stimulate the nervous system can increase the efficacy of stroke rehabilitation. Recent stud ...

Interaction of Fluorescent Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Photosynthetic Microbes

Alessandra Antonucci

The discovery of carbon-based nanomaterials has impacted a variety of research areas in ways that could not be imagined three decades ago. Their unique combination of structural, optical, and electronic properties has made these nano-sized materials partic ...

Dual-Activatable Cell Tracker for Controlled and Prolonged Single-Cell Labeling

Pablo Rivera Fuentes, Salome Riccarda Püntener

Cell trackers are fluorescent chemical tools that facilitate imaging and tracking cells within live organisms. Despite their versatility, these dyes lack specificity, tend to leak outside of the cell, and stain neighboring cells. Here, we report a dual-act ...

Extensive and diverse patterns of cell death sculpt neural networks in insects

Pavan P Ramdya, Chin-Lin Chen

Changes to the structure and function of neural networks are thought to underlie the evolutionary adaptation of animal behaviours. Among the many developmental phenomena that generate change programmed cell death (PCD) appears to play a key role. We show t ...
