Quantitative characterization of the inorganic phosphate gene regulatory networks in S. cerevisiae and bottom up engineering an orthogonal gene network

Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) play a crucial role in an organism's response to changing environmental conditions. Cellular behaviors typically result from the integration of multiple gene outputs, and their regulation often demands precise control of num ...

A systematic CRISPR approach to understanding the role of Drosophila antimicrobial peptides in immunity in vivo

Mark Austin Hanson

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are host-encoded antibiotics that combat invading microbes. These short immune effectors are conserved in plants, animals, and fungi. Early work showed that AMPs killed bacteria in generalist fashions in vitro: i.e. AMPs that ...

Emergence of diauxie as an optimal growth strategy under resource allocation constraints in cellular metabolism

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Diauxie, or the sequential consumption of carbohydrates in bacteria such as Escherichia coli, has been hypothesized to be an evolutionary strategy which allows the organism to maximize its instantaneous specific growth-giving the bacterium a competitive ad ...

Single-Cell Tracing Dissects Regulation of Maintenance and Inheritance of Transcriptional Reinduction Memory

Sebastian Maerkl, Johannes Becker

Transcriptional memory of gene expression enables adaptation to repeated stimuli across many organisms. However, the regulation and heritability of transcriptional memory in single cells and through divisions remains poorly understood. Here, we combined mi ...

Analysis of a bac operon-silenced strain suggests pleiotropic effects of bacilysin in Bacillus subtilis

Mustafa Demir

Bacilysin, as the simplest peptide antibiotic made up of only L-alanine and L-anticapsin, is produced and excreted by Bacillus subtilis under the control of quorum sensing. We analyzed bacilysin-nonproducing strain OGU1 which was obtained by bacA-targeted ...

Increased drug permeability of a stiffened mycobacterial outer membrane in cells lacking MFS transporter Rv1410 and lipoprotein LprG

Georg Fantner, Haig Alexander Eskandarian

The major facilitator superfamily transporter Rv1410 and the lipoprotein LprG (Rv1411) are encoded by a conserved two-gene operon and contribute to virulence in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Rv1410 was originally postulated to function as a drug efflux pump, ...

Histone Modifications in Development and Malignancy

Elisa Oricchio

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) development is driven by the accumulations of multiple genetic, epigenetic, and chromosomal alterations. These lesions can lead to modifications of the chromatin architecture. To identify novel oncogenic interactions driven by mo ...

The RNA-Binding Protein PUM2 Impairs Mitochondrial Dynamics and Mitophagy During Aging

Johan Auwerx, Bernard Schneider, Kristina Schoonjans, Graham Knott, Hao Li, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Davide D'Amico, Mario Romani, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva

Little information is available about how post-transcriptional mechanisms regulate the aging process. Here, we show that the RNA-binding protein Pumilio2 (PUM2), which is a translation repressor, is induced upon aging and acts as a negative regulator of li ...

InAs/InP quantum dot VECSEL emitting at 1.5 mu m

Elyahou Kapon, Alexandru Mereuta, Andrei Caliman, Grigore Suruceanu

A high-power InAs quantum dot (QD) vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser emitting at 1.5 mu m is reported. The active region employs 20 layers of high-density Stranski-Krastanow InAs quantum dots on an InP substrate. The QD density and emission w ...

Detection of mRNA by Whole Mount in situ Hybridization and DNA Extraction for Genotyping of Zebrafish Embryos

Andrew Charles Oates, Rachna Narayanan

In situ hybridization is used to visualize the spatial distribution of gene transcripts in tissues and in embryos, providing important information about disease and development. Current methods involve the use of complementary riboprobes incorporating non- ...

Promoter mutagenesis for fine-tuning expression of essential genes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala, Gaëlle Séraphine Kolly

A range of regulated gene expression systems has been developed for mycobacteria in the last few years to facilitate the study of essential genes, validate novel drug targets and evaluate their vulnerability. Among these, the TetR/Pip-OFF repressible promo ...

Redesigning Water Distribution Networks Using a Guided Evolutionary Approach

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

The paper describes and discusses the application of a guided evolutionary approach for the optimization of water distribution networks. Initially developed for the Battle of the Water Networks II (BWN-II), the approach was adapted and improved for competi ...

Potential Direct Regulators of the Drosophila yellow Gene Identified by Yeast One-Hybrid and RNAi Screens

Bart Deplancke

The regulation of gene expression controls development, and changes in this regulation often contribute to phenotypic evolution. Drosophila pigmentation is a model system for studying evolutionary changes in gene regulation, with differences in expression ...

Dynamic Reorganization of Extremely Long-Range Promoter-Promoter Interactions between Two States of Pluripotency

Serum-to-2i interconversion of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) is a valuable in vitro model for early embryonic development. To assess whether 3D chromatin organization changes during this transition, we established Capture Hi-C with target-sequence enr ...

Upstream Binding of Idling RNA Polymerase Modulates Transcription Initiation from a Nearby Promoter

Giovanni Dietler, Aleksandre Japaridze

The bacterial gene regulatory regions often demonstrate distinctly organized arrays of RNA polymerase binding sites of illdefined function. Previously we observed a module of closely spaced polymerase binding sites upstream of the canonical promoter of the ...

Functional genomics of corrinoid starvation in the organohalide-respiring bacterium Dehalobacter restrictus strain PER-K23

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Yue Lu, Hauke Smidt, Aamani Rupakula Boyanapalli

De novo comnoid biosynthesis represents one of the most complicated metabolic pathways in nature. Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) have developed different strategies to deal with their need of corrinoid, as it is an essential cofactor of reductive d ...

From polymers to gene regulation : a bottom up approach to the bacterial chromatin

Aleksandre Japaridze

DNA molecule is the fundamental component of every living organism, since it encodes the hereditary information. Although the genetic code of almost 200 species has been sequenced, the direct connection between gene sequence, DNA structure and biological f ...

Phosphorylation of the nuclear receptor co-repressor 1 by protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) switches its co-repressor targets in the liver

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Dongryeol Ryu, Xu Wang, Adriano Maida

The nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) is a transcriptional co-regulator that has wide-ranging effects on gene expression patterns. In the liver, NCoR1 represses lipid synthesis in the fasting state, whereas it inhibits the activation of PPARα upon fee ...
