In vivo polydopamine coating of Rhodobacter sphaeroides for enhanced electron transfer

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Melania Reggente, Fabian Fischer

Recent advances in coupling light-harvesting microorganisms with electronic components have led to a new generation of biohybrid devices based on microbial photocatalysts. These devices are limited by the poorly conductive interface between phototrophs and ...

Unraveling mitochondrial dynamics: exploring asymmetries and function through advanced microscopy

Julius Hans Bernd Winter

Still displaying characteristics of their bacterial origin, such as autonomous division, motility, and their own genome, mitochondria remain an elusive component of modern eukaryotes. They produce most of the cell's energy in the form of adenosine triphosp ...

Invasive palms have more efficient and prolonged CO2 assimilation compared to native sub-Mediterranean vegetation

Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen, Thibaut Michel Georges Juillard, Janisse Deluigi, Marco Conedera

In sub-Mediterranean ecosystems, shade-tolerant broadleaf evergreens, especially the invasive Trachycarpus fortunei, are spreading uncontrollably in the forest understorey, impeding the regeneration of the native deciduous woody vegetation. Most invasive s ...

Mitochondrial matrix protein LETMD1 maintains thermogenic capacity of brown adipose tissue in male mice

Johan Auwerx, Xiaoxu Li, Jun Yong Kim, Maroun Bou Sleiman

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has abundant mitochondria with the unique capability of generating heat via uncoupled respiration. Here, Park et al. identify LETMD1 as a mitochondrial matrix protein enriched in brown adipose tissue (BAT) and reveal a crucial ro ...

Warming may extend tree growing seasons and compensate for reduced carbon uptake during dry periods

Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen, Yann Vitasse, Eugénie Isabelle Mas, Margaux Clara Lou Didion-Gency

Warming and drought alter plant phenology, photosynthesis and growth with important consequences for the global carbon cycle and the earth’s climate. Yet, few studies have attempted to tease apart their effects on tree phenology, particularly leaf senes ...

Organisation and dynamics of mitochondria and their RNA.

Timo Henry René Rey

The organisation of molecules into dynamic cells, and collaboration of many of those cells over a billion years led to the evolution of human life. During the last century, biologists then began to unravel the marvels of cellular organisation with ever in ...

Biotechnology Applications of Nanocarbons in Plant and Algal Systems

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Alice Judith Gillen, Alessandra Antonucci

The unique combination of structural, optical, and electronic properties of nanocarbons (NCs) has made these materials particularly attractive for various applications in biotechnology and biomedicine, ranging from sensing, gene-delivery, bioimaging and th ...

Functional kleptoplasts intermediate incorporation of carbon and nitrogen in cells of the Sacoglossa sea slug Elysia viridis

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Michael Kühl

Some sacoglossan sea slugs incorporate intracellular functional algal chloroplasts, a process termed kleptoplasty. "Stolen" chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) can remain photosynthetically active up to several months, contributing to animal nutrition. Whether thi ...

Interaction of Fluorescent Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Photosynthetic Microbes

Alessandra Antonucci

The discovery of carbon-based nanomaterials has impacted a variety of research areas in ways that could not be imagined three decades ago. Their unique combination of structural, optical, and electronic properties has made these nano-sized materials partic ...

High-throughput and adaptive super-resolution fluorescence microscopy of organelles

Dora Mahecic

Fluorescence super-resolution microscopy has allowed unprecedented insight into the workings of biological systems below the diffraction limit of light. Over the past decade, it has overcome several challenges to deliver 3D, multi-color and faster imaging ...
