Palancade Lab – Puzzling out nuclear pore complex assembly

The Palancade lab recently published a new article in FEBS Letters: Puzzling out nuclear pore complex assembly Abstract:  Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are sophisticated multiprotein assemblies embedded within the nuclear envelope and controlling the exchanges of molecules between the cytoplasm and the nucleus. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms by which these elaborate complexes are built…

Dumont Lab – An unconventional TOG domain is required for CLASP localization

The Dumont Lab recently published an article in Current Biology: An unconventional TOG domain is required for CLASP localization Abstract: Cytoplasmic linker-associated proteins (CLASPs) form a conserved family of microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) that maintain microtubules in a growing state by promoting rescue while suppressing catastrophe.1  CLASP function involves an ordered array of tumor overexpressed gene (TOG)…

Greenberg Lab – A genome-wide screen reveals new regulators of the 2-cell-like cell state

The Greenberg Lab recently contributed to the publication of a new article in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology: A genome-wide screen reveals new regulators of the 2-cell-like cell state Abstract: In mammals, only the zygote and blastomeres of the early embryo are totipotent. This totipotency is mirrored in vitro by mouse ‘2-cell-like cells’ (2CLCs), which appear at…

Pintard Lab – Mechanisms of nuclear pore complex disassembly by the mitotic Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK-1) in C. elegans embryos

The Pintard  lab rencently published in Science Advances: Mechanisms of nuclear pore complex disassembly by the mitotic Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK-1) in C. elegans embryos Abstract: The nuclear envelope, which protects and organizes the genome, is dismantled during mitosis. In the Caenorhabditis elegans zygote, nuclear envelope breakdown (NEBD) of the parental pronuclei is spatially and temporally regulated during mitosis…

Cadoret Lab – Firing of Replication Origins Is Disturbed by a CDK4/6 Inhibitor in a pRb-Independent Manner

The Cadoret Lab recently published in International Journal of Molecular Sciences : Firing of Replication Origins Is Disturbed by a CDK4/6 Inhibitor in a pRb-Independent Manner Abstract: Over the last decade, CDK4/6 inhibitors (palbociclib, ribociclib and abemaciclib) have emerged as promising anticancer drugs. Numerous studies have demonstrated that CDK4/6 inhibitors efficiently block the pRb-E2F pathway and induce…
