Whole-genome doubling drives oncogenic loss of chromatin segregation

Elisa Oricchio, Natalya Katanayeva, Daniele Tavernari, Ruxandra-Andreea Lambuta, Juan Diaz Miyar

Whole-genome doubling (WGD) is a recurrent event in human cancers and it promotes chromosomal instability and acquisition of aneuploidies(1-8). However, the three-dimensional organization of chromatin in WGD cells and its contribution to oncogenic phenotyp ...

Infrared nanospectroscopic mapping of a single metaphase chromosome

Giovanni Dietler, Andrzej Kulik, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Ewelina Wioletta Lipiec

The integrity of the chromatin structure is essential to every process occurring within eukaryotic nuclei. However, there are no reliable tools to decipher the molecular composition of metaphase chromosomes. Here, we have applied infrared nanospectroscopy ...

Revealing chromatin organization in metaphase chromosomes

Beat Fierz

The local structural organization of chromatin in mitotic chromosomes is not well understood. A new cryo-electron tomography study from the Daban laboratory (Chicano et al, ) reveals that mitotic chromatin isolated from human cells can assume a plate-like ...

Photophysical Heavy-Atom Effect in Iodinated Metallocorroles: Spin-Orbit Coupling and Density of States

Majed Chergui, Enrico Pomarico, Marine Eva Fedora Bouduban

Excited-state dynamics and electronic structures of Al and Ga corrole complexes were studied as a function of the number of beta-pyrrole iodine substituents. Using spectrally broad-band femtosecond-resolved fluorescence upconversion, we determined the kine ...

Improvement of breast cancer diagnosis through microfluidics

Huu Tuan Nguyen

In breast cancer, 15-20% of cases are reported with overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) that causes rapid cancer progression and poor prognosis. Fortunately, HER2-targeted therapy using specific antibodies such as Trastuzumab ...

Differential signaling networks of Bcr-Abl p210 and p190 kinases in leukemia cells defined by functional proteomics

Romain Hamelin, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Oliver Hantschel, Sina Maren Reckel

The two major isoforms of the oncogenic Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase, p210 and p190, are expressed upon the Philadelphia chromosome translocation. p210 is the hallmark of chronic myelogenous leukemia, whereas p190 occurs in the majority of B-cell acute lymphobl ...

Functional Dissection of Intersubunit Interactions in the EspR Virulence Regulator of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Giovanni Dietler, Matteo Dal Peraro, Florence Pojer, Marco Stenta, Aleksandre Japaridze, Benjamin Blasco

The nucleoid-associated protein EspR, a chromosome organizer, has pleiotropic effects on expression of genes associated with cell wall function and pathogenesis in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In particular, EspR binds to several sites upstream of the espAC ...

Chromosomal Number Aberrations and Transformation in Adult Mouse Retinal Stem Cells In Vitro

Freddy Radtke

Purpose. The potential of stem cells (SCs) as a source for cell-based therapy on a wide range of degenerative diseases and damaged tissues such as retinal degeneration has been recognized. Generation of a high number of retinal stem cells (RSCs) in vitro w ...

DCJ median problems on linear multichromosomal genomes: Graph representation and fast exact solutions

Given a set of genomes g and a distance measure d, the genome rearrangement median problem asks for another genome q that minimizes Sigma n is an element of g(d(q,g)). This problem lies at the heart of phylogenetic reconstruction from rearrangement data. w ...

Long-range enhancer-promoter interactions in the HoxD complex

Denis Duboule

Collinear expression of 5′ Hoxd genes during mammalian limb development is required to properly determine digits number and identity. We recently proposed a two-step model to account for the underlying regulatory mechanism, which involves an initial loopin ...

Lack of Insertional-Deletional Polymorphism in a Collection of Mycobacterium ulcerans Isolates from Ghanaian Buruli Ulcer Patients

Stewart Cole

Mycobacterium ulcerans causes the devastating infectious skin disease Buruli ulcer and has a monomorphic population structure. The resolution of conventional genetic fingerprinting methods is therefore not sufficient for microepidemiological studies aiming ...

Calcium phosphate transfection generates mammalian recombinant cell lines with higher specific productivity than polyfection

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Madiha Derouazi, Sébastien Chenuet

Transfection with polyethylenimine (PEI) was evaluated as a method for the generation of recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO DG44) cell lines by direct comparison with calcium phosphate-DNA coprecipitation (CaPO4) using both green fluorescent protein (G ...

Genetic characterization of CHO production host DG44 and derivative recombinant cell lines

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Madiha Derouazi, Martin Bertschinger

The dihydrofolate reductase-deficient Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line DG44 is the dominant mammalian host for recombinant protein manufacturing, in large part because of the availability of a well-characterized genetic selection and amplification sys ...
