The NAD(+)/Sirtuin Pathway Modulates Longevity through Activation of Mitochondrial UPR and FOXO Signaling
Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Carlos Canto Alvarez, Laurent Mouchiroud, Richardus Houtkooper, Dongryeol Ryu, Elena Katsyuba, Norman Lionel Moullan, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis
NAD(+) is an important cofactor regulating metabolic homeostasis and a rate-limiting substrate for sirtuin deacylases. We show that NAD(+) levels are reduced in aged mice and Caenorhabditis elegans and that decreasing NAD(+) levels results in a further red ...
Cell Press2013Novel Approaches in Tandem Mass Spectrometry for Peptide and Protein Structure Analysis
Results of the mechanistic studies of free-electron based fragmentation methods addressing peptide and protein structure analysis with mass spectrometry (MS), electron capture dissociation (ECD) and electron ionization dissociation (EID), are presented. Se ...
EPFL2012Regulatory Institutions and Governance Costs
In recent decades, the European postal industry has undergone profound reforms, which aim to promote competition while simultaneously maintaining a high level of universal services for consumers. It is often put forth that market opening and the emergence ...
EPFL2012A Quantitative Test of Hamilton's Rule for the Evolution of Altruism
Dario Floreano, Laurent Keller, Markus Waibel
The evolution of altruism is a fundamental and enduring puzzle in biology. In a seminal paper Hamilton showed that altruism can be selected for when rb − c>0, where c is the fitness cost to the altruist, b is the fitness benefit to the beneficiary, and r i ...
Public Library of Science2011ERBIN is a new SARA-interacting protein: Competition between SARA and SMAD2 and SMAD3 for binding to ERBIN
SARA, an early endosomal protein, plays a key role in TGFβ signalling, as it presents SMAD2 and SMAD3 for phosphorylation by the activated TGFβ receptors. Here, we show that ERBIN is a new SARA-interacting protein that can be recruited by SARA to early end ...
Company of Biologists2011A Framework to Model and Analyze the WHY and the HOW of Coopetition
Alain Wegmann, Arash Golnam, Ron Sanchez
Coopetition has been defined as an approach to managing that combines competition and cooperation. It transcends the traditional paradigms of competition and cooperation in an effort to achieve the advantages of both. As an inter-organizational relationshi ...
2011The effect of access charges on social welfare in the railway industry
Matthias Finger, Marc Laperrouza
This paper presents a game-theoretic model of a liberalized railway industry in which train operation and ownership of infrastructure is fully vertically separated. The objective of this paper is to analyze how the regulatory agency will socially optimal s ...
2010Graphical display for annual climate-based daylight simulation
Marilyne Andersen, Magali Bodart
Due to daylight variability, a design cannot be thoroughly assessed using single-moment simulations, which is why we need dynamic performance metrics like Daylight Autonomy and Useful Daylight Illuminance. Going one step further, the annual variation in pe ...
2008Oocyte CD9 is enriched on the microvillar membrane and required for normal microvillar shape and distribution
Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Surabhi Gupta
Microvilli are found on the surface of many cell types, including the mammalian oocyte, where they are thought to act in initial contact of sperm and oocyte plasma membranes. CD9 is currently the only oocyte protein known to be required for sperm-oocyte fu ...
Elsevier BV20072dx_merge: Data management and merging for 2D crystal images
Electron crystallography of membrane proteins determines the structure of membrane-reconstituted and two-dimensionally (2D) crystallized membrane proteins by low-dose imaging with the transmission electron microscope, and computer image processing. We have ...
