In situ evaluation of single-cell lysis by cytosol extraction observation through fluorescence decay and dielectrophoretic trapping time

Philippe Renaud

We present a new method for lysis of single cells in continuous flow, where cells are sequentially trapped, lysed and released in an automatic process. Using optimized frequencies, dielectrophoretic trapping allows exposing cells in a reproducible way to h ...

Structural Role of RKS Motifs in Chromatin Interactions: A Molecular Dynamics Study of HP1 Bound to a Variably Modified Histone Tail

Efthimios Kaxiras

The current understanding of epigenetic signaling assigns a central role to post-translational modifications that occur in the histone tails. In this context, it has been proposed that methylation of K9 and phosphorylation of S10 in the tail of histone H3 ...

Assessment of transferrin recycling by Triplet Lifetime Imaging in living cells

Theo Lasser, Harm-Anton Klok, Zuzana Kadlecova

An optical method is presented that allows the measurement of the triplet lifetime of a fluorescent molecule. This is a characteristic specific to each fluorophore. Based on differences in triplet lifetimes of two fluorescent species (autofluorescence vers ...

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histones are an essential feature in the dynamic regulation of chromatin. One of these modifications, ubiquitylation, has been speculated to directly influence the stability of the nucleosome, which represents the ...

2012

The ability to specifically attach chemical probes to individual proteins represents a powerful approach to the study and manipulation of protein function in living cells. It provides a simple, robust and versatile approach to the imaging of fusion protein ...

Regulation of chromatin structure involves histone posttranslational modifications that can modulate intrinsic properties of the chromatin fiber to change the chromatin state. We used chemically defined nucleosome arrays to demonstrate that H2B ubiquitylat ...

2011

Over the last decade, several protein tags have been developed for the specific and covalent labeling of fusion proteins with small organic probes. Among them, SNAP-tag has been used in many applications such as live cell imaging, protein microarrays and t ...

Fast molecular tracking maps nanoscale dynamics of plasma membrane lipids

Marcel Leutenegger

We describe an optical method capable of tracking a single fluorescent molecule with a flexible choice of high spatial accuracy (~10–20 nm standard deviation or ~20–40 nm full-width-at-half-maximum) and temporal resolution (< 1 ms). The fluorescence signal ...

The visualization of complex cellular processes involving multiple proteins requires the use of spectroscopically distinguishable fluorescent reporters. We have previously introduced the SNAP-tag as a general tool for the specific labeling of SNAP-tag fusi ...

The Colored Revolution of Bioimaging

Michaël Unser, Cédric René Jean Vonesch, François Aguet

With the recent development of fluorescent probes and new high-resolution microscopes, biological imaging has entered a new era and is presently having a profound impact on the way research is being conducted in the life sciences. Biologists have come to d ...
