Genomic and metabolic adaptations of biofilms to ecological windows of opportunity in glacier-fed streams

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Matteo Tolosano, Tyler Joe Kohler, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki

In glacier-fed streams, ecological windows of opportunity allow complex microbial biofilms to develop and transiently form the basis of the food web, thereby controlling key ecosystem processes. Using metagenome-assembled genomes, we unravel strategies tha ...

Identification of novel PCTAIRE-1/CDK16 substrates using a chemical genetic screen

Kei Sakamoto, Caterina Collodet, Maria Deak

PCTAIRE-1 (also known as cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK) 16), is a Ser/Thr kinase that has been implicated in many cellular processes, including cell cycle, spermatogenesis, neurite outgrowth, and vesicle trafficking. Most recently, it has been propo ...

From cardiac tissue engineering to heart-on-a-chip: beating challenges

Francesco Piraino

The heart is one of the most vital organs in the human body, which actively pumps the blood through the vascular network to supply nutrients to as well as to extract wastes from all other organs, maintaining the homeostasis of the biological system. Over t ...

High-Resolution Correlative Microscopy: Bridging the Gap between Single Molecule Localization Microscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy

Aleksandra Radenovic, Georg Fantner, Lely Feletti, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Pascal Damian Odermatt, Hendrik Georges Deschout, Arun Shivanandan, Radek Jankele

Nanoscale characterization of living samples has become essential for modern biology. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) creates topological images of fragile biological structures from biomolecules to living cells in aqueous environments. However, correlating ...

Quasi-static cyclic tests on masonry spandrels

Katrin Beyer, Alessandro Dazio

This paper presents the results of an experimental campaign on masonry spandrels. Within this campaign four masonry spandrels were subjected to quasi-static cyclic loading. Two different spandrel configurations were tested. The first configuration comprise ...

Microfluidic front-end technologies for protein electrospray mass spectrometry

Niels Erik Lion

In the present work, a polymer microfabricated microsprayer is characterised and tested for the mass spectrometric analysis of biomolecules, in particular in the context of protein mass spectrometry and proteomics. As the core of this work deals with analy ...
