Relief of ParB autoinhibition by parS DNA catalysis and recycling of ParB by CTP hydrolysis promote bacterial centromere assembly

Three-component ParABS systems are widely distributed factors for plasmid partitioning and chromosome segregation in bacteria. ParB acts as adaptor protein between the 16-base pair centromeric parS DNA sequences and the DNA segregation proteins ParA and Sm ...

A method to disentangle and quantify host anabolic turnover in photosymbiotic holobionts with subcellular resolution

Anders Meibom, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi, Arnaud Comment, Maoz Fine, Emma Mary Gibbin

A wide range of organisms host photosynthesizing symbionts. In these animals the metabolic exchange between host and symbionts has prevented in situ host anabolic turnover to be studied without the confounding effect of translocated photosynthates. Using t ...

In the past couple of decades, major efforts were made to increase reliability of metabolic assessments by magnetic resonance methods. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has been valuable for providing in vivo evidence and investigating biomarkers in ne ...

Evolution of the neurochemical profiles in the G93A-SOD1 mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Rolf Gruetter, Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Hongxia Lei, Carole Poitry-Yamate, Elisabeth Anne Dirren

In vivo (1)H magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H-MRS) investigations of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mouse brain may provide neurochemical profiles and alterations in association with ALS disease progression. We aimed to longitudinally follow neur ...

Alterations of Brain Energy Metabolism in Type 2 Diabetic Goto-Kakizaki Rats Measured In Vivo by (13)C Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Sarah Catherine Sonnay, Freya-Merret Girault

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with deterioration of brain structure and function. Here, we tested the hypothesis that T2D induces a reorganization of the brain metabolic networks that support brain function. For that, alterations of neuronal and glia ...

Self-organization of parS centromeres by the ParB CTP hydrolase

Paolo De Los Rios, Stefano Zamuner

ParABS systems facilitate chromosome segregation and plasmid partitioning in bacteria and archaea. ParB protein binds centromeric parS DNA sequences and spreads to flanking DNA. We show that ParB is an enzyme that hydrolyzes cytidine triphosphate (CTP) to ...

Glucocorticoid deficiency causes transcriptional and post-transcriptional reprogramming of glutamine metabolism

Benjamin Dieter Weger, Meltem Weger

Background: Deficient glucocorticoid biosynthesis leading to adrenal insufficiency is life-threatening and is associated with significant co-morbidities. The affected pathways underlying the pathophysiology of co-morbidities due to glucocorticoid deficienc ...

The prediction of implant behaviors in vivo by the use of easy-to-perform in vitro methods is of great interest in biomaterials research. In the field of bone implants, it is commonly accepted that a spontaneous formation of a hydroxyapatite (HA) layer on ...

Energy metabolism in the rat cortex under thiopental anaesthesia measured

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Nathalie Just, Sarah Catherine Sonnay

Barbiturates, commonly used as general anaesthetics, depress neuronal activity and thus cerebral metabolism. Moreover, they are likely to disrupt the metabolic support of astrocytes to neurons, as well as the uptake of nutrients from circulation. By employ ...
