Gentle Rhodamines for Live-Cell Fluorescence Microscopy

Luc Reymond

Rhodamines have been continuously optimized in brightness, biocompatibility, and color to fulfill the demands of modern bioimaging. However, the problem of phototoxicity caused by the excited fluorophore under long-term illumination has been largely neglec ...

Fluorescent fatty acid conjugates for live cell imaging of peroxisomes

Luc Reymond, Manon Sandra Bardyn, Fabien Kuttler, Daria Korotkova, Triana Amen, Milena Maria Schuhmacher

Peroxisomes are eukaryotic organelles that are essential for multiple metabolic pathways, including fatty acid oxidation, degradation of amino acids, and biosynthesis of ether lipids. Consequently, peroxisome dysfunction leads to pediatric-onset neurodegen ...

Chemical Probe for Imaging of Polo-like Kinase 4 and Centrioles

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond, Pierre Gönczy, Aleksandar Salim, Georgios Hatzopoulos

Polo-like kinase (Plk4) is a serine/threonine-proteinkinase thatis essential for biogenesis of the centriole organelle and is enrichedat centrioles. Herein, we introduce Cen-TCO, a chemical probe basedon the Plk4 inhibitor centrinone, to image Plk4 and cen ...

Tubulin engineering by semi-synthesis reveals that polyglutamylation directs detyrosination

Luc Reymond, Pierre Gönczy, Nora Guidotti, Beat Fierz, Ninad Dilip Agashe, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Timothy Matthias Reichart, Eduard Hubert Theodoor Marius Ebberink, Fabian Zacharias Schneider, Cédric Pourroy, Po-Han Chang

Microtubules, a critical component of the cytoskeleton, carry post-translational modifications (PTMs) that are important for the regulation of key cellular processes. Long-lived microtubules, in neurons particularly, exhibit both detyrosination of a-tubuli ...

A covalently linked probe to monitor local membrane properties surrounding plasma membrane proteins

Rudolf Hovius, Luc Reymond

We present a method probing the local membrane environment surrounding membrane proteins in the plasma membrane by linking a solvatochromic dye to the target, and provide evidence for lipid-based sorting. The insulin receptor environment changed upon insul ...

Phage Display Selected Cyclic Peptide Inhibitors of Kallikrein-Related Peptidases 5 and 7 and Their In Vivo Delivery to the Skin

Luc Reymond, Christian Heinis, Alessandro Zorzi, Mischa Schüttel, Vanessa Carle, Tamara Maric, Patrick Andreas Gonschorek

Kallikrein-related peptidases 5 (KLK5) and 7 (KLK7) are serine proteases with homeostatic functions in the epidermis that play a critical role in Netherton syndrome (NS), a rare yet life-threatening genetic disorder that currently lacks specific treatment. ...

Fluorescent D-Amino Acids for Super-resolution Microscopy of the Bacterial Cell Wall

Luc Reymond, Suliana Manley, Ophélie Rutschmann, Juliette Griffie, Chen Zhang, Willi Leopold Stepp, Jiangtao Qiao, Faustine Ambroisine Charline Ryckebusch

Fluorescent D-amino acids (FDAAs) have previ-ously been developed to enable in situ highlighting of locations of bacterial cell wall growth. Most bacterial cells lie at the edge of the diffraction limit of visible light; thus, resolving the precise details ...

A ligand-based system for receptor-specific delivery of proteins

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond

Gene delivery using vector or viral-based methods is often limited by technical and safety barriers. A promising alternative that circumvents these shortcomings is the direct delivery of proteins into cells. Here we introduce a non-viral, ligand-mediated p ...
