Efficient and sensitive profiling of RNA–protein interactions using TLC-CLIP

Didier Trono, Julien Léonard Duc, Christina Ernst

RNA-binding proteins are instrumental for post-transcriptional gene regulation, controlling all aspects throughout the lifecycle of RNA molecules. However, transcriptome-wide methods to profile RNA-protein interactions in vivo remain technically challengin ...

Allosteric control of type I-A CRISPR-Cas3 complexes and establishment as effective nucleic acid detection and human genome editing tools

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Dongchun Ni

Type I CRISPR-Cas systems typically rely on a two-step process to degrade DNA. First, an RNA-guided complex named Cascade identifies the complementary DNA target. The helicase-nuclease fusion enzyme Cas3 is then recruited in trans for processive DNA degrad ...

Dual proteomics of Drosophila melanogaster hemolymph infected with the heritable endosymbiont Spiroplasma poulsonii

Bruno Lemaitre, Samuel Rommelaere, Fanny Schüpfer, Florent François Masson, Alice Marra

Insects are frequently infected with heritable bacterial endosymbionts. Endosymbionts have a dramatic impact on their host physiology and evolution. Their tissue distribution is variable with some species being housed intracellularly, some extracellularly ...

Fast and pervasive transcriptomic resilience and acclimation of extremely heat-tolerant coral holobionts from the northern Red Sea

Anders Meibom, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi, Maoz Fine, Romain Savary

Corals from the northern Red Sea and Gulf of Aqaba exhibit extreme thermal tolerance. To examine the underlying gene expression dynamics, we exposed Stylophora pistillata from the Gulf of Aqaba to short-term (hours) and long-term (weeks) heat stress with p ...

A community-based transcriptomics classification and nomenclature of neocortical cell types

Parviz Ghaderi, Jean Rossier

To understand the function of cortical circuits, it is necessary to catalog their cellular diversity. Past attempts to do so using anatomical, physiological or molecular features of cortical cells have not resulted in a unified taxonomy of neuronal or glia ...

Optimization methods and objective functions for analysis of metabolic network models

Zhaleh Hosseini

Computational studies of metabolism aim to systematically analyze the metabolic behaviour of biological systems in different conditions. Genome-scale metabolic network models (GEMs) capture the connection between elements of the network by applying stoichi ...

Roles of Epigenetic Dysregulation in Cancer Progression and Metastasis

Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia

Nearly all the cells of an organism share the same DNA sequence or genome, and yet they show different phenotypes and carry out different functions. This diversity is made possible by a verity of molecular modifications acting on the DNA sequence that coll ...

Single-molecule dynamics and genome-wide transcriptomics reveal that NF-kB (p65)-DNA binding times can be decoupled from transcriptional activation

Suliana Manley, Beat Fierz, David Michael Suter, Christian Sieben, Aleksandr Benke, Andrea Callegari

Transcription factors (TFs) regulate gene expression in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes by recognizing and binding to specific DNA promoter sequences. In higher eukaryotes, it remains unclear how the duration of TF binding to DNA relates to downstream tran ...

Integrating Gene Synthesis and MITOMI for Rapid Protein Engineering

Matthew Christopher Blackburn

The research described within this thesis is primarily motivated by two fields of science with reversed, yet complementary, approaches to addressing the same essential objective: manipulating and understanding the complex program of life. Whereas synthetic ...

Assessment of transcript reconstruction methods for RNA-seq

We evaluated 25 protocol variants of 14 independent computational methods for exon identification, transcript reconstruction and expression-level quantification from RNA-seq data. Our results show that most algorithms are able to identify discrete transcri ...
