DUX is a non-essential synchronizer of zygotic genome activation

Didier Trono, Sonia Verp, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Alberto De Iaco, Delphine Yvette L Grun

Some of the earliest transcripts produced in fertilized human and mouse oocytes code for DUX, a double homeodomain protein that promotes embryonic genome activation (EGA). Deleting Dux by genome editing at the 1- to 2-cell stage in the mouse impairs EGA an ...

Single-cell studies of Mycobacterium smegmatis cell cycle using time-lapse fluorescence microscopy

Joëlle Xiao Yuan Ven

Cell division is one of the most primordial cellular processes and is essential for life propagation. It is composed of crucial events, namely genome duplication, chromosomes segregation and membrane separation. Failure of these processes will have dramati ...

Protein Engineering Tools to Explore the Function of Protein Post-Translational Modifications for Chromatin and Microtubule Cytoskeletal Biology

Ninad Dilip Agashe

Protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a crucial role in expanding the protein diversity and are one of the major mechanisms through which cells respond to ever changing environmental cues. The function of two of the most important cellular c ...

Probing the distribution of cortical components, including PtdIns(4,5)P2, during asymmetric division of C. elegans embryos

Melina Jasmin Scholze

Asymmetric cell division is crucial for embryonic development and stem cell lineages. In the one-cell C. elegans embryo, a contractile cortical actomyosin network contributes to asymmetric division by segregating PAR proteins to discrete cortical domains. ...

Stabilization of overlapping biofilaments by passive crosslinkers

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

The formation, maintenance and reorganization of the cytoskeletal filament network is essential for a number of cellular processes. While the crucial role played by active forces generated by motor proteins has been studied extensively, only recently the i ...

Casein kinase 2 mediated phosphorylation of Spt6 modulates histone dynamics and regulates spurious transcription

Eric Paquet

CK2 is an essential protein kinase implicated in various cellular processes. In this study, we address a potential role of this kinase in chromatin modulations associated with transcription. We found that CK2 depletion from yeast cells leads to replication ...

Transcription-induced supercoiling explains formation of self-interacting chromatin domains in S-pombe

Yannis Burnier, Andrzej Stasiak, Julien Dorier, Fabrizio Benedetti

The question of how self-interacting chromatin domains in interphase chromosomes are structured and generated dominates current discussions on eukaryotic chromosomes. Numerical simulations using standard polymer models have been helpful in testing the vali ...

Bidirectional motion of filaments: the role of motor proteins and passive cross linkers

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

In eukaryotic cells, motor proteins (MPs) bind to cytoskeletal filaments and move along them in a directed manner generating active stresses. During cell division a spindle structure of overlapping antiparallel microtubules forms whose stability and dynami ...

Modulation of the endogenous production of protoporphyrin IX in a yeast - based model organism

Georges Wagnières, Emmanuel Louis Arthur Gerelli, Jaroslava Joniová

The main aim of this study was to assess conditions at which simple yeast-based model organism produces maximal levels of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) after an exogenous administration of its precursor, 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), and the ferrous-ion chelator ...

An Amidase_3 domain-containing N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase is required for mycobacterial cell division

Neeraj Dhar, Ashima Bhaskar, Dong Li

Mycobacteria possess a multi-layered cell wall that requires extensive remodelling during cell division. We investigated the role of an amidase_3 domain-containing N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase, a peptidoglycan remodelling enzyme implicated in cell div ...

Identification of genetic interactors of ypa2 in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Manuela Moraru

In this study, the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe was used as a model system to study the cellular signaling that underlies cell cycle progression. Phosphorylation plays an important part in the regulation of this process. Kinases catalyze the tra ...

The Human Centriolar Protein CEP135 Contains a Two-Stranded Coiled-Coil Domain Critical for Microtubule Binding

Pierre Gönczy, Paul Guichard, Georgios Hatzopoulos

Centrioles are microtubule-based structures that play important roles notably in cell division and cilium biogenesis. CEP135/Bld10p family members are evolutionarily conserved microtubule-binding proteins important for centriole formation. Here, we analyze ...
