Nucleic acid driven sterile inflammation

The etiology of sterile inflammatory conditions is complex and affected by a variety of genetic, environmental and stochastic factors. But despite this overt complexity, progress has been made in elucidating mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis. An i ...

Controlled hydrogel photopolymerization inside live systems by X-ray irradiation

Giorgio Margaritondo

We successfully demonstrate the in situ formation by X-ray irradiation induced polymerization of a three-dimensional (3D) hydrogel based on poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) diacrylate (PEG DA), with the option of heparin incorporation to enhance cell adhesion. ...

Nanopore Detection of Single Molecule RNAP–DNA Transcription Complex

Aleksandra Radenovic, Erick Antonio Garcia Cordero, Camille Alice Raillon, Floriano Traversi

In the past decade, a number of single-molecule methods have been developed With the aim of investigating single protein and nucleic acid interactions. For the first time we use solid-state nanopore sensing to detect a single E. coli RNAP DNA transcription ...

A quorum sensing-mediated switch contributes to natural transformation of Vibrio cholerae

Melanie Blokesch

There is a fundamental gap in our understanding of how horizontal gene transfer contributes to the enormous range of genetic variations that are observed among bacteria. The objective of our study was to better understand how the acquisition of genetic mat ...

Investigation of Biophysical Properties of Biomolecules by Means of Atomic Force Microscopy

Jae Sun Jeong

Biomolecules are the building blocks of living organisms and perform the most important functions in a biological process. The aim of biophysics is to understand the biological functions of biomolecules in terms of their structure: structure and function o ...

Post-translational modification of genetically encoded polypeptide libraries

Christian Heinis, Alessandro Angelini

The genetic encoding of polypeptides with biological display systems enables the facile generation and screening of very large combinatorial libraries of molecules. By post-translationally modifying the encoded polypeptides, chemically and structurally mor ...

Arrays of 100μm x 100μm dielectric elastomer actuators to strain the single cells

Herbert Shea, Samin Akbari

Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEA) are compliant devices capable of generating large percentage strains with sub-second response times. Miniaturizing DEAs is challenging principally because of the need for mu m-scale compliant electrodes. Employing low-e ...
