Physics of Protein Aggregation in Normal and Accelerated Brain Aging

Protein aggregation is a normal response to age‐related exposures. According to the thermodynamic hypothesis of protein folding, soluble proteins precipitate into amyloids (pathology) under supersaturated conditions through a process similar to crystalliza ...

Nanopore Technology: When Proteins Analyse Proteins

Verena Rukes

Nanopore sensing is an emerging technology that can distinguish subtle differences in molecules and allows the observation of molecular processes. The technique has revolutionized DNA sequencing through long reads of single molecules. Following this succes ...

Microsecond melting and revitrification of cryo samples with a correlative light-electron microscopy approach

Marcel Drabbels, Gabriele Bongiovanni, Oliver Florian Harder

We have recently introduced a novel approach to time-resolved cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) that affords microsecond time resolution. It involves melting a cryo sample with a laser beam to allow dynamics of the embedded particles to occur. Once the la ...

Centromeres are dismantled by foundational meiotic proteins Spo11 and Rec8

Eftychia Kyriacou

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 ...

Interaction of Fluorescent Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Photosynthetic Microbes

Alessandra Antonucci

The discovery of carbon-based nanomaterials has impacted a variety of research areas in ways that could not be imagined three decades ago. Their unique combination of structural, optical, and electronic properties has made these nano-sized materials partic ...

Glutaredoxin1 Diminishes Amyloid Beta-Mediated Oxidation of F-Actin and Reverses Cognitive Deficits in an Alzheimer's Disease Mouse Model

Bernard Schneider

Aims: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis through multiple sources are implicated in synaptic pathology observed in the disease. We have previously shown F-actin disassembly in dendritic spines in early AD ( ...
