Regulation of branched versus linear Arp2/3-generated actin filaments
Abstract
Activation of the Arp2/3 complex by VCA-motif-bearing actin nucleation-promoting factors results in the formation of “daughter” actin filaments branching off the sides of pre-existing “mother” filaments. Alternatively, when stimulated by SPIN90, Arp2/3 directly nucleates “linear” actin…

Conservation and divergence of canonical and non-canonical imprinting in murids
Abstract
Background
Genomic imprinting affects gene expression in a parent-of-origin manner and has a profound impact on complex traits including growth and behavior. While the rat is widely used to model human pathophysiology, few imprinted genes have been…
Invité par Maxim Greenberg, Ozren Bogdanovic (Andalusian Centre for Developmental Biology, Seville, Spain) donnera un séminaire IJM le vendredi 12 mai 2023 sur le thème :
Evolutionary conservation and divergence of embryonic DNA methylome remodelling in fishes
Methylation of cytosines is the most abundant DNA modification in vertebrates that plays crucial roles in cellular differentiation and…
Invité par le Young Scientist Club, Antoine Molaro (Université de Clermont Auvergne, France) donnera un séminaire IJM le 28 avril sur le thème :
Unusual Histones Mediate (epi)Génétic Conflicts during Reproduction
Foreword
I am broadly interested in understanding the function of the germline epigenome. In mammals, the germline epigenome is key to the inheritance of genetic and…

"Genomic analysis of a 34,000-year-old human individual from Mongolia"
We investigate the evolutionary history of modern and extinct human populations using ancient DNA. Our focus is to retrieve and sequence DNA from archaeological…
L'équipe Camadro (en collaboration avec ProteoSeine, Dumont Lab et Ladoux/Mège Lab) vient de publier un nouvel article dans Journal of Proteome Research :
Extending the Range of SLIM-Labeling Applications: From Human Cell Lines in Culture to Caenorhabditis elegans Whole-Organism Labeling
Abstract
The simple light isotope metabolic-labeling technique relies on the in vivo biosynthesis of amino acids from U-[12C]-labeled molecules…
L'équipe Minc vient de publier un nouvel article dans PNAS :
Size- and position-dependent cytoplasm viscoelasticity through hydrodynamic interactions with the cell surface
Abstract
Many studies of cytoplasm rheology have focused on small components in the submicrometer scale. However, the cytoplasm also baths large organelles like nuclei, microtubule asters, or spindles that often take significant portions of…
