Resolving bacterial cell biology: from replisome dynamics to cell wall synthesis

Bacteria are ubiquitous single cellular organisms. Compared to eukaryotic cells, bacteria have two unique characteristics: the membrane-less nucleoid and the cell wall built of peptidoglycan (PG). In most bacteria, a single circular chromosome is compacted ...

Sequential and directional insulation by conserved CTCF sites underlies the Hox timer in stembryos

Denis Duboule, Alexandre Gauthier Aurèle Mayran, Hocine Rekaik, Célia Corinne Renée Bochaton, Lucille Delisle, Aurélie Hintermann

Temporal activation of Hox genes in mouse pseudo-embryos in vitro initiates at the anterior part of the cluster and is accompanied by asymmetric loading of cohesin. Posterior CTCF sites then successively act as transient insulators, regulating the timed tr ...

A satellite DNA array barcodes chromosome 7 and regulates totipotency via ZFP819

Didier Trono, Gabriela Ecco, Helen Mary Rowe

Mammalian genomes are a battleground for genetic conflict between repetitive elements and KRAB-zinc finger proteins (KZFPs). We asked whether KZFPs can regulate cell fate by using ZFP819, which targets a satellite DNA array, ZP3AR. ZP3AR coats megabase reg ...

Biochemistry of Aminoacyl tRNA Synthetase and tRNAs and Their Engineering for Cell-Free and Synthetic Cell Applications

Sebastian Maerkl, Ragunathan Bava Ganesh

Cell-free biology is increasingly utilized for engineering biological systems, incorporating novel functionality, and circumventing many of the complications associated with cells. The central dogma describes the information flow in biology consisting of t ...

Towards an artificial cell: Development of a system which self-regenerates the protein components of the PURE system in microfluidic reactors

Barbora Lavickova

Thanks to recent advancements in synthetic biology, the dream of creating a synthetic cell has become feasible. However, due to its inherent complexity, one of the fundamental functions of all living systems, i.e., self-replication, remains to be introduce ...

Diversity of Reactive Astrogliosis in CNS Pathology: Heterogeneity or Plasticity?

Jordan Squair

Astrocytes are essential for the development and homeostatic maintenance of the central nervous system (CNS). They are also critical players in the CNS injury response during which they undergo a process referred to as "reactive astrogliosis." Diversity in ...

The MIDI Degradation Toolkit: Symbolic Music Augmentation and Correction

Andrew Philip McLeod

In this paper, we introduce the MIDI Degradation Toolkit (MDTK), containing functions which take as input a musical excerpt (a set of notes with pitch, onset time, and duration), and return a ``degraded'' version of that excerpt with some error (or errors) ...

Selective Retrieval of Individual Cells from Microfluidic Arrays Combining Dielectrophoretic Force and Directed Hydrodynamic Flow

Bart Deplancke, Carlotta Guiducci, Jörn Pezoldt, Pierre-Emmanuel Marie Thiriet, Gabriele Gambardella, Kevin Keim

Hydrodynamic-based microfluidic platforms enable single-cell arraying and analysis over time. Despite the advantages of established microfluidic systems, long-term analysis and proliferation of cells selected in such devices require off-chip recovery of ce ...

Opposing chromatin remodelers control transcription initiation frequency and start site selection

Philipp Bucher, René Dreos

Precise nucleosome organization at eukaryotic promoters is thought to be generated by multiple chromatin remodeler (CR) enzymes and to affect transcription initiation. Using an integrated analysis of chromatin remodeler binding and nucleosome occupancy fol ...

Modeling and analysis of parts and devices of genetic regulation

Yves Berset

DNA encrypts the composition of the cellular material that is synthesized through transcription and translation. Never-theless, gene regulation mechanisms determine the final amount of transcribed and translated material. Transcription factors (TF) are a c ...

Quantitative single cell dynamics of signaling and transcriptional response in mammalian cells

Onur Tidin

Cells live in ever-changing environments, thereby facing a variety of dynamic environmental signals. Environmental stimuli elicit intracellular responses through signaling pathways, which converge on transcriptional activation or repression of target genes ...

Circadian clock- and feeding-dependent regulation of translation initiation and elongation in the liver

Cédric Gobet

Circadian rhythms allow organisms to anticipate and adapt to periodic environmental changes related to the day-night cycle. These rhythms originate from a genetic network ticking in almost every cell of our body and the coordination between different organ ...

What shapes eukaryotic transcriptional bursting?

Felix Naef, Damien Lionel Nicolas, Nicholas Edward Phillips

Isogenic cells in a common environment present a large degree of heterogeneity in gene expression. Part of this variability is attributed to transcriptional bursting: the stochastic activation and inactivation of promoters that leads to the discontinuous p ...

A practical qPCR approach to detect TERRA, the elusive telomeric repeat-containing RNA

Joachim Lingner, Marianna Feretzaki

Telomeres, the heterochromatic structures that protect the ends of the chromosomes, are transcribed into a class of long non-coding RNAs, telomeric repeat-containing RNAs (TERRA), whose transcriptional regulation and functions are not well understood. The ...

Parkin functionally interacts with PGC-1 proportional to to preserve mitochondria and protect dopaminergic neurons

Johan Auwerx, Patrick Aebischer, Graham Knott, Bernard Schneider, Davide D'Amico, Darren Moore, Norman Lionel Moullan, Nathalie Marie Géraldine Bernard, Lu Zheng

To understand the cause of Parkinson's disease (PD), it is important to determine the functional interactions between factors linked to the disease. Parkin is associated with autosomal recessive early-onset PD, and controls the transcription of PGC-1a, a m ...

Rhythmic modulation of transcriptional burst frequency in circadian gene promoters

Damien Lionel Nicolas

Isogenic cells sharing a common environment present a large degree of heterogeneity in gene expression, and stochasticity inherent to transcription substantially participates in this cell-to-cell variability. Notably, a majority of mammalian genes are tran ...

Transcriptional regulatory logic of the diurnal cycle in the mouse liver

Bart Deplancke, Matteo Dal Peraro, Felix Naef, Guillaume Rey, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Benjamin Dieter Weger, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Nouria Hernandez, Irina Krier, Alexandra Styliani Kalantzi, Jonathan Aryeh Sobel

Many organisms exhibit temporal rhythms in gene expression that propel diurnal cycles in physiology. In the liver of mammals, these rhythms are controlled by transcription-translation feedback loops of the core circadian clock and by feeding-fasting cycles ...

Acoustic data-driven grapheme-to-phoneme conversion in the probabilistic lexical modeling framework

Mathew Magimai Doss, Ramya Rasipuram, Marzieh Razavi

One of the primary steps in building automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech systems is the development of a phonemic lexicon that provides a mapping between each word and its pronunciation as a sequence of phonemes. Phoneme lexicons can be d ...

The effect of the functional interaction between PGC-1α and Parkin on mitochondrial quality control in Parkinson's disease

Lu Zheng

Although several genetic factors have been directly associated to Parkinsonâ s disease (PD), no single pathway has emerged to explain the etiology of this neurodegenerative disease. To further understand the cause of Parkinsonâ s disease (PD), it is ther ...
