Dynamics of CLIMP-63 S-acylation control ER morphology

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Graham Knott, Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Luciano Andres Abriata, Béatrice Kunz, Sylvia Ho, Patrick Alain Sandoz, Catherine Maclachlan, Robin Alexander Denhardt-Eriksson, Gard Spreemann

A key player in the formation of endoplasmic reticulum sheets is CLIMP-63, but mechanistic details remained elusive. Here authors combined cellular experiments and mathematical modelling to show that S-acylation of CLIMP-63 regulates its function by mediat ...

Selective integrin targeting with DNA-based nanomaterials

Eva Eugene Kurisinkal

Targeting cells specific to type and state remains a challenge in developing effective therapies, sensitive diagnostics, also robust and versatile tissue engineering. A promising strategy is to focuses on improving the inherent selectivity of the targeting ...

Three-dimensional electrodes for dielectrophoretic applications

Kevin Keim

This thesis reports the use of metal-coated three-dimensional SU-8 electrodes for dielectrophoretic bio sensing and particle manipulation applications. Placing free standing three-dimensional electrodes in microfluidic channels, electric fields can be appl ...

Membrane expression of the estrogen receptor ER alpha is required for intercellular communications in the mammary epithelium

Cathrin Brisken, Stéphanie Cagnet

17 beta-Estradiol induces the postnatal development of mammary gland and influences breast carcinogenesis by binding to the estrogen receptor ER alpha. ER alpha acts as a transcription factor but also elicits rapid signaling through a fraction of ER alpha ...

Podosomes, But not the Maturation status, Determine the Protease-Dependent 3D Migration in human Dendritic cells

Romain Guiet

Dendritic cells (DC) are professional Antigen-Presenting Cells scattered throughout antigen-exposed tissues and draining lymph nodes, and survey the body for pathogens. Their ability to migrate through tissues, a 3D environment, is essential for an effecti ...

Contact Angle at the Leading Edge Controls Cell Protrusion Rate

László Forró, Jean-Jacques Meister, Niccolo Piacentini, Chiara Gabella, Sylvia Jeney, Elena Bertseva, Alicia Carine Bornert

Plasma membrane tension and the pressure generated by actin polymerization are two antagonistic forces believed to define the protrusion rate at the leading edge of migrating cells [1-5]. Quantitatively, resistance to actin protrusion is a product of membr ...

Structure of the Dodecameric Yersinia enterocolitica Secretin YscC and Its Trypsin-Resistant Core

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Andreas Engel

The type Ill secretion system machinery, also known as the injectisome, delivers bacterial effector proteins into eukaryotic cells during infection. The outer membrane YscC secretin is a major part of Yersinia enterocolitica's injectisome and is among the ...

Interplay between cytoskeletal forces, membrane tension and shape in rapidly migrating cells

Chiara Gabella

Cell migration is a fundamental process in all animal cells. The ability of cell to migrate is crucial for many pathological and physiological conditions such as morphogenesis, the immune response to inflammatory or vascular diseases and cancer metastasis. ...

Numerically bridging lamellipodial and filopodial activity during cell spreading reveals a potentially novel trigger of focal adhesion maturation

Benoît Vianay

We present a novel approach to modeling cell spreading, and use it to reveal a potentially central mechanism regulating focal adhesion maturation in various cell phenotypes. Actin bundles that span neighboring focal complexes at the lamellipodium-lamellum ...

Spot Identification and Quality Control in Cell-Based Microarrays

Michael Bauer, Blaise Calpe

Cell-based microarrays are being increasingly used as a tool for combinatorial and high throughput screening of cellular microenvironments. Analysis of microarrays requires several steps, including microarray imaging, identification of cell spots, quality ...
