Controlled DNA Patterning by Chemical Lift-Off Lithography: Matrix Matters

Nucleotide arrays require controlled surface densities and minimal nucleotide–substrate interactions to enable highly specific and efficient recognition by corresponding targets. We investigated chemical lift-off lithography with hydroxyl- and oligo(ethyle ...

PyroTRF-ID: a novel bioinformatics methodology for the affiliation of terminal-restriction fragments using 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing data

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Pierre Rossi, Jacques Rougemont, David Gregory Weissbrodt, Noam Shani, Lucas Sinclair

The PyroTRF-ID bioinformatics methodology (http://bbcf.epfl.ch/PyroTRF-ID/) was developed to combine pyrosequencing and T-RFLP for describing microbial communities and identifying T-RFs by comparison of experimental and digital T-RFLP profiles obtained fro ...

Fine DNA structure revealed by constant height frequency modulation AFM imaging

Giovanni Dietler, Dusan Vobornik, Andrea Cerreta

Few examples of sub nanometer resolution on biomolecules can be found in literature. In particular, AFM experiments on DNA mostly fail to show the double helical groove periodicity, and so far such a feat was only achieved in liquid. Here we describe a met ...

COI Barcoding of Nebelid Testate Amoebae (Amoebozoa: Arcellinida): Extensive Cryptic Diversity and Redefinition of the Hyalospheniidae Schultze

Edward Mitchell, Enrique Lara, Thierry Jean Heger

We used Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit 1 (COI) to assess the phylogenetic relationships and taxonomy of Nebela sensu stricto and similar taxa (Nebela group, Arcellinida) in order to clarify the taxonomic validity of morphological characters. The COI data not o ...

Controlling a Single DNA Molecule in an Electric Field by Means of In Situ Atomic Force Microscopy

Giovanni Dietler, Jae Sun Jeong

DNA is the bio-polymer containing the genetic information needed for the development and functioning for all living organisms. It has a polymeric structure consisting of units called nucleotides, each consisting of a non-polar, hydrophobic interior (the ba ...

PyroTRF-ID: a novel bioinformatics methodology for the affiliation of terminal-restriction fragments using 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing data

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Pierre Rossi, Jacques Rougemont, David Gregory Weissbrodt, Noam Shani, Lucas Sinclair

Background: In molecular microbial ecology, massive sequencing is gradually replacing classical fingerprinting techniques such as terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) combined with cloning-sequencing for the characterization of microb ...

Comparing COI and SSU rDNA barcodes for assessing the diversity and phylogenetic relationships of cyphoderiid testate amoebae (Rhizaria: Euglyphida)

Edward Mitchell, Enrique Lara, Thierry Jean Heger

The mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit 1 gene (COI) has been promoted as an ideal “DNA barcode” for animal species and other groups of eukaryotes. However, the utility of the COI marker for species level discrimination and for phylogenetic analyses h ...

Quorum Sensing Contributes to Natural Transformation of Vibrio cholerae in a Species-Specific Manner

Melanie Blokesch, Patrick Martin Seitz, Gaia Francesca Marianne Suckow

Although it is a human pathogen, Vibrio cholerae is a regular member of aquatic habitats, such as coastal regions and estuaries. Within these environments, V. cholerae often takes advantage of the abundance of zooplankton and their chitinous molts as a nut ...

Biogeography, Evolution and Diversity of Free-Living Protists

Thierry Jean Heger

Although widely recognized as essential actors of ecosystem processes and representing a significant part of the Earth's biodiversity, free-living protists are poorly known. Major questions concerning their diversity, ecology, and evolution remain complete ...

Testate amoeba analysis of lake sediments: impact of filter size and total count on estimates of density, species richness and assemblage structure

Edward Mitchell

Testate amoebae are informative about palaeoecological conditions, but the methods generally used for their analyses in lake sediments differ from those used for their analyses in peats, making comparisons difficult. This study examines how filter mesh siz ...
