Pintard Lab – Microtubule-binding domains in Katanin p80 subunit are essential for severing activity in C. elegans

L'équipe Pintard a publié un nouvel article dans Journal of Cell Biology : Microtubule-binding domains in Katanin p80 subunit are essential for severing activity in C. elegans   Résumé : Microtubule-severing enzymes (MSEs), such as Katanin, Spastin, and Fidgetin play essential roles in cell division and neurogenesis. They damage the microtubule (MT) lattice, which can either destroy or amplify…

Courtier Lab – Higher evolutionary dynamics of gene copy number for Drosophila glue genes located near short repeat sequences

L'équipe Courtier a récemment publié un nouvel article dans BMC Ecology and Evolution : Higher evolutionary dynamics of gene copy number for Drosophila glue genes located near short repeat sequences Résumé : Background During evolution, genes can experience duplications, losses, inversions and gene conversions. Why certain genes are more dynamic than others is poorly understood.…

Wassmann Lab – Qualitative rather than quantitative phosphoregulation shapes the end of meiosis I in budding yeast

L'équipe Wassmann a publié un nouvel article dans EMBO : Qualitative rather than quantitative phosphoregulation shapes the end of meiosis I in budding yeast   Résumé : Exit from mitosis is brought about by dramatic changes in the phosphoproteome landscape. A drop in Cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) activity, the master regulatory kinase, and activation of counteracting phosphatases such as Cdc14…

Guichet Lab – The Importance of the Position of the Nucleus in Drosophila Oocyte Development

L'équipe Guichet a publié un nouvel article dans Cells : The Importance of the Position of the Nucleus in Drosophila  Oocyte Development Résumé : Oogenesis is a developmental process leading to the formation of an oocyte, a haploid gamete, which upon fertilisation and sperm entry allows the male and the female pronuclei to fuse and give rise to…

Romet-Lemonne/Jégou Lab – Regeneration of actin filament branches from the same Arp2/3 complex

L'équipe Romet-Lemonne/Jégou a publié un nouvel article dans Science Advances : Regeneration of actin filament branches from the same Arp2/3 complex Résumé : Branched actin filaments are found in many key cellular structures. Branches are nucleated by the Arp2/3 complex activated by nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) proteins and bound to the side of preexisting “mother” filaments. Over time,…

Greenberg lab – DNA methylation restricts coordinated germline and neural fates in embryonic stem cell differentiation

L'équipe Greenberg a contribué à la publication d'un nouvel article dans Nature Structural & Molecular biology : DNA methylation restricts coordinated germline and neural fates in embryonic stem cell differentiation   Résumé : 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…
