Mitochondrial gene signature in the prefrontal cortex for differential susceptibility to chronic stress

Rolf Gruetter, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Bart Deplancke, Jocelin Grosse, Daniel Alpern, Julie Marie Russeil, Meltem Weger, Antoine Timothée Cherix, Sriparna Ghosal

Mitochondrial dysfunction was highlighted as a crucial vulnerability factor for the development of depression. However, systemic studies assessing stress-induced changes in mitochondria-associated genes in brain regions relevant to depression symptomatolog ...

Gene replacement therapy provides benefit in an adult mouse model of Leigh syndrome

Johan Auwerx

Mutations in nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes are responsible for a broad spectrum of disorders among which Leigh syndrome is the most common in infancy. No effective therapies are available for this severe disease mainly because of the limited capabili ...

Machine learning-based tools to model and to remove the off-target effect

François Fleuret

A RNA interference, also called a gene knockdown, is a biological technique which consists of inhibiting a targeted gene in a cell. By doing so, one can identify statistical dependencies between a gene and a cell phenotype. However, during such a gene inhi ...

Mitonuclear communication in homeostasis and stress

Johan Auwerx, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis

Mitochondria participate in crucial cellular processes such as energy harvesting and intermediate metabolism. Although mitochondria possess their own genome - a vestige of their bacterial origins and endosymbiotic evolution - most mitochondrial proteins ar ...

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response - synchronizing genomes

Johan Auwerx, Virginija Jovaisaite

Maintenance of the mitochondrial proteome is performed primarily by chaperones, which fold and assemble proteins, and by proteases, which degrade excess damaged proteins. Upon various types of mitochondrial stress, triggered genetically or pharmacologicall ...

Telomerase is essential to alleviate pif1-induced replication stress at telomeres

Joachim Lingner

Pif1, an evolutionarily conserved helicase, negatively regulates telomere length by removing telomerase from chromosome ends. Pif1 has also been implicated in DNA replication processes Such as Okazaki fragment maturation and replication fork pausing. We fi ...
