Invited by the Palancade, Mounia Lagha (Institut de Génétique Moléculaire de Montpellier) will present the IJm seminar:
Lighting up the central dogma to dissect how sharp developmental patterns are established
"A fundamental question in biology is how cellular processes are so reproducible despite the inherent variations in the chemical reactions governing them. During development of a…
The Palancade Lab recently published a new review in Current Opinion in Genetics & Development:
On the edge: how nuclear pore complexes rule genome stability
Abstract:
Nuclear organization has emerged as a critical layer in the coordination of DNA repair activities. Distinct types of DNA lesions have notably been shown to relocate at the vicinity of nuclear…
The dream of every cell is to become two cells (François Jacob, 1920-2013).
This citation can be considered as the key phrase describing all previous 15 Jacques Monod conferences in the Cell cycle series that took place in Roscoff. Each meeting had a slightly shifted focus on topics of how cells achieve this dream, and which…
On January 19th 2024, the Monod-Diderot conference will welcome Matthieu Piel (Cell Biology and Cancer department, Institut Curie/CNRS, and Institut Pierre-Gilles de Gennes) who will present:
Nuclear size and shape in proliferating and migrating cells
Abstract:
I will present our recent work on the cell nucleus in cells that grow during the cell division cycle or deform…
The next meeting of the Cytoskeleton club will be on January 17th at 9.30 at the Institut Jacques Monod (15 rue Hélène Brion - salle François Jacob):
Anumita Jawahar (PhD. student, O. du Roure/J. Heuvingh lab, PMMH, ESPCI) will talk about: "Mechanical Polarity of the Cell Cortex"
Jérémy Sallé (researcher, N. Minc lab, IJM) will…
The Greenberg contributed to the publication of a new article in Nature Structural & Molecular biology:
DNA methylation restricts coordinated germline and neural fates in embryonic stem cell differentiation
Abstract:
As embryonic stem cells (ESCs) transition from naive to primed pluripotency during early mammalian development, they acquire high DNA methylation levels. During this transition, the germline is…
The Camadro lab and the ProtéoSeine platform contirbuted to the publication of a new article in eBioMedicine:
Multiomic analysis in fibroblasts of patients with inborn errors of cobalamin metabolism reveals concordance with clinical and metabolic variability
Abstract:
Background
The high variability in clinical and metabolic presentations of inborn errors of cobalamin (cbl) metabolism (IECM), such as the cblC/epicblC types with…
The Raote lab contributed to the publicaiton of a new article in PNAS :
A model for collagen secretion by intercompartmental continuities
Abstract: Newly synthesized secretory proteins are exported from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) at specialized subcompartments called exit sites (ERES). Cargoes like procollagen are too large for export by the standard COPII-coated vesicle of 60…
The Balavoine Lab recently published a new article in Plos One:
Fast cycling culture of the annelid model Platynereis dumerilii
Abstract: Platynereis dumerilii, a marine annelid, is a model animal that has gained popularity in various fields such as developmental biology, biological rhythms, nervous system organization and physiology, behaviour, reproductive biology, and epigenetic regulation. The transparency of P. dumerilii tissues…
Invited by the Konstantinides Lab, Simon Sprecher (Faculty of Science and Medicine, University of Fribourg) will present an IJM seminar:
Mechanistic and evolutionary insights into the making and forgetting of memories
Abstract:
Plasticity of the brain with its ability to learn and form memories is one of the most astonishing features of the nervous system. We study…
