Phosphoregulated orthogonal signal transduction in mammalian cells

Leo Scheller

Orthogonal tools for controlling protein function by post-translational modifications open up new possibilities for protein circuit engineering in synthetic biology. Phosphoregulation is a key mechanism of signal processing in all kingdoms of life, but too ...

Mitocellular communication: Shaping health and disease

Johan Auwerx, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis, Sébastien Robert Victor Herzig

Throughout the animal kingdom, mitochondria are the only organelles that retain their own genome and the transcription and translation machineries that are all essential for energy harvesting. Mitochondria have developed a complex communication network, al ...

Mitochondrial stress signalling and its impacts on physiology

Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis

Mitochondria are responsible for respiration and energy harvesting across the eukaryotic kingdom. They also take part in other cellular processes like intermediary metabolism. As a result, mitochondrial function directly impacts organismal features such as ...

Evolution of an intricate J-protein network driving protein disaggregation in eukaryotes

Paolo De Los Rios, Alessandro Barducci, Duccio Malinverni

Hsp70 participates in a broad spectrum of protein folding processes extending from nascent chain folding to protein disaggregation. This versatility in function is achieved through a diverse family of J-protein cochaperones that select substrates for Hsp70 ...

Toll-like receptors--taking an evolutionary approach

Bruno Lemaitre

The Toll receptor was initially identified in Drosophila melanogaster for its role in embryonic development. Subsequently, D. melanogaster Toll and mammalian Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been recognized as key regulators of immune responses. After ten y ...

Molecular analysis of the biodiversity of protists in hydrocarbon-polluted and pristine soils

Enrique Lara

Eukaryotic microorganisms are an essential component of the Earth's global diversity. It is believed that the number of protistan taxa far outnumbers the one of viruses and bacteria. The taxonomic classification of these organisms, which also represent the ...
