Physically asymmetric division of the C. elegans zygote ensures invariably successful embryogenesis

Asymmetric divisions that yield daughter cells of different sizes are frequent during early embryogenesis, but the importance of such a physical difference for successful development remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated this question using the ...

Unequal cleavage of the C. elegans zygote ensures robust embryogenesis

Radek Jankele

Asymmetric cell divisions play key roles in generating cellular diversity during embryogenesis, and in tissue homeostasis during postembryonic life. Particular asymmetric cell divisions producing differentially sized daughter cells were described in many s ...

Role of Cnot6l in maternal mRNA turnover

Radek Jankele, Jun Ma

Removal of poly(A) tail is an important mechanism controlling eukaryotic mRNA turnover. The major eukaryotic deadenylase complex CCR4-NOT contains two deadenylase components, CCR4 and CAF1, for which mammalian CCR4 is encoded by Cnot6 or Cnot6l paralogs. W ...

An Integrated Microfluidic Device For C-Elegans Early Embryogenesis Studies And Drug Assays

Thomas Lehnert, Martinus Gijs, Pierre Gönczy, Matteo Cornaglia, Li Dong, Radek Jankele, Jingwei Zhang

The Caenorhabditis elegans embryo is a widely used model for the functional analysis of dynamic cellular processes, such as chromosome segregation, cytokinesis or lineage analysis. However, the conventional embryo preparation method that relies on manually ...

High-Resolution Correlative Microscopy: Bridging the Gap between Single Molecule Localization Microscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy

Aleksandra Radenovic, Lely Feletti, Georg Fantner, Pascal Damian Odermatt, Arun Shivanandan, Hendrik Georges Deschout, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Radek Jankele

Nanoscale characterization of living samples has become essential for modern biology. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) creates topological images of fragile biological structures from biomolecules to living cells in aqueous environments. However, correlating ...
