High throughput 3D super-resolution microscopy reveals Caulobacter crescentus in vivo Z-ring organization

Suliana Manley, Karin Lederballe Meibom, Seamus John Holden, Thomas Pengo

We created a high-throughput modality of photoactivated localization microscopy (PALM) that enables automated 3D PALM imaging of hundreds of synchronized bacteria during all stages of the cell cycle. We used high-throughput PALM to investigate the nanoscal ...

Optimization of the analogue-sensitive Cdc2/Cdk1 mutant by in vivo selection eliminates physiological limitations to its use in cell cycle analysis

Viesturs Simanis

Analogue-sensitive (as) mutants of kinases are widely used to selectively inhibit a single kinase with few off-target effects. The analogue-sensitive mutant cdc2-as of fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) is a powerful tool to study the cell cycle, bu ...

Direct path integral estimators for isotope fractionation ratios

Michele Ceriotti, Bingqing Cheng

Fractionation of isotopes among distinct molecules or phases is a quantum effect which is often exploited to obtain insights on reaction mechanisms, biochemical, geochemical, and atmospheric phenomena. Accurate evaluation of isotope ratios in atomistic sim ...

Modelling of Protein Palmitoylation Networks

Tiziano Dallavilla

S-Palmitoylation is a post-translational modification consisting in the reversible attachment of palmitate. Little is known about the mechanisms that underlie the dynamics of the process. Using computational modelling we investigated the palmitoylation- de ...

Palmitoylation, pathogens and their host

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Sanja Blaskovic, Mathieu Blanc

S-Palmitoylation, the only reversible post-translational lipid modification, confers unique biochemical and functional properties to proteins. Although it has long been known that viral proteins are palmitoylated, recent studies reveal that this modificati ...

Native Architecture of the Centriole Proximal Region Reveals Features Underlying Its 9-Fold Radial Symmetry

Pierre Gönczy, Davide Demurtas, Paul Guichard, Isabelle Fluckiger, Aitana Neves da Silva, Norbert Majubu

Centrioles are cylindrical microtubule-based structures whose assembly is critical for the formation of cilia, flagella, and centrosomes. The centriole proximal region harbors a cartwheel that dictates the 9-fold symmetry of centrioles. Although the cartwh ...

An atomistic view of microtubule stabilization by GTP

Paul Guichard

A microtubule is a dynamic system formed of αβ-tubulins. The presence of nonhydrolyzable guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP)/guanosine diphosphate (GDP) on the β-tubulins provokes microtubule polymerization/depolymerization. Despite the large number of experim ...

Standing on the shoulders of hermann staudinger: Post-polymerization modification from past to present

Harm-Anton Klok

With a span as long as the history of polymer science itself, post-polymerization modification represents a versatile platform for the preparation of diversely functionalized polymers from a single precursor. Starting with the initial efforts by Staudinger ...

Mechanisms of LRRK2-Mediated Neurodegeneration

Elpida Tsika, Darren Moore

Mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene represent the most common cause of familial Parkinson's disease (PD), whereas common variation at the LRRK2 locus is associated with an increased risk of idiopathic PD. Considerable progress has be ...

Self-assembling SAS-6 multimer is a core centriole building block

Paul Guichard

Centrioles are conserved microtubule-based organelles with 9-fold symmetry that are essential for cilia and mitotic spindle formation. A conserved structure at the onset of centriole assembly is a "cartwheel" with 9-fold radial symmetry and a central tubul ...
