Centromeres are dismantled by foundational meiotic proteins Spo11 and Rec8

Meiotic processes are potentially dangerous to genome stability and could be disastrous if activated in proliferative cells. Here we show that two key meiosis-defining proteins, the topoisomerase Spo11 (which forms double-strand breaks) and the meiotic coh ...

Pulchelloid A, a sesquiterpene lactone from the Canadian prairie plant Gaillardia aristata inhibits mitosis in human cells

Tatiana Favez, Pierre Gönczy, Georgios Hatzopoulos

Background The Canadian prairie ecosystem presents a rich source of natural products from plants that are subjected to herbivory by grazing mammals. This type of ecological competition may contribute to the production of natural products of interest in cel ...

Co-regulation of endothelial and myogenic cell fates through intercellular crosstalk in skeletal muscle

Umji Lee

Skeletal muscle is one of the most dynamic organs in the human body, which has a vigorous potential to regenerate and adapt to environmental changes. Depending on environments, skeletal muscle enables essential life activities to survive by controlling mov ...

Evolutionary history expands the range of signaling interactions in hybrid multikinase networks

Mohamed Barakat, Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

Two-component systems (TCSs) are ubiquitous signaling pathways, typically comprising a sensory histidine kinase (HK) and a response regulator, which communicate via intermolecular kinase-to-receiver domain phosphotransfer. Hybrid HKs constitute non-canonic ...

Engineered Extracellular Matrices with Integrated Wireless Microactuators to Study Mechanobiology

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Erik Mailand, Nikolaos Bouklas, Fazil Emre Uslu

Mechanobiology explores how forces regulate cell behaviors and what molecular machinery are responsible for the sensing, transduction, and modulation of mechanical cues. To this end, probing of cells cultured on planar substrates has served as a primary ex ...

Variations of intracellular density during the cell cycle arise from tip-growth regulation in fission yeast

Emrah Bostan, Pascal Damian Odermatt

Intracellular density impacts the physical nature of the cytoplasm and can globally affect cellular processes, yet density regulation remains poorly understood. Here, using a new quantitative phase imaging method, we determined that dry-mass density in fis ...

Function Integration, Reconstruction And Approximation Using Rank-1 Lattices

Fabio Nobile, Giovanni Migliorati

We consider rank-1 lattices for integration and reconstruction of functions with series expansion supported on a finite index set. We explore the connection between the periodic Fourier space and the non-periodic cosine space and Chebyshev space, via tent ...

Expression of E-Cadherin in Epithelial Cancer Cells Increases Cell Motility and Directionality through the Localization of ZO-1 during Collective Cell Migration

Hwanseok Jang

Collective cell migration of epithelial tumor cells is one of the important factors for elucidating cancer metastasis and developing novel drugs for cancer treatment. Especially, new roles of E-cadherin in cancer migration and metastasis, beyond the epithe ...

Reprogramming G Protein-Coupled Receptor Structure, Function And Signaling By Computational Design

Dániel Kéri

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are 7-transmembrane alpha-helical integral membrane proteins on which cells heavily rely to receive information regarding their external environment. These receptors are able to transfer information to intracellular down ...

Considerations of the Impacts of Cell-Specific Growth and Production Rate on Clone Selection-A Simulation Study

Florian Maria Wurm

For the manufacturing of complex biopharmaceuticals using bioreactors with cultivated mammalian cells, high product concentration is an important objective. The phenotype of the cells in a reactor plays an important role. Are clonal cell populations showin ...
