Abstract:

[Truncated abstract] Regulation of mRNA stability is an important posttranscriptional mechanism involved in the control of gene expression. The rate of mRNA decay can differ greatly from one mRNA to another and may be regulated by RNA-protein interactions. A key determinant of mRNA decay are sequence instability (cis) elements often located in the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of many mRNAs. For example, the AU rich elements (AREs), are such well characterized elements, and most commonly involved in promoting mRNA degradation, and specific binding of proteins to these elements leading to the st

Les neurones sont des cellules excitables capables de coder et transmettre l’information sous forme d’oscillations du potentiel membranaire. Cette activité électrique est produite par une modification des flux ioniques transmembranaires. Les neurones constituent un exemple d’oscillateur cellulaire dont la dynamique non linéaire permet l’apparition d’une activité électrique complexe. Dans ce système, les ions calciques sont des messagers intracellulaires importants. Ils servent de médiateur entre un signal électrique et un signal chimique, par une modulation de l’activité enzymatique de certain

Abstract:

Within recent years, allotropic structures of carbon have been produced in the forms of tubes and ribbons which offer the promise of extraordinary electronic and thermal properties. Here we present analyses of oligophenyl and oligoacene systems–infinite, one-dimensional chains of benzene rings linked along the armchair and zigzag directions. These one-dimensional structures, which are amenable to calculation by analytical means, exhibit features very similar to carbon nanotubes and nanoribbons. Using a tight-binding Hamiltonian we analytically determine the density of states, local density of

Abstract:

Protein interactions, both amongst themselves and with other molecules, are responsible for much of the work within the cellular machine. As the number of protein interaction data sets grow in number and in size, from experiments such as Yeast 2-Hybrid or Affinity Purification followed by Mass Spectrometry, there is a need to analyse the data both quantitatively and qualitatively. One area of research is determining how reliable a report of a protein interaction is – whether it could be reproduced if the experiment were repeated, or if it were tested using an independent assay.

The three-dimensional structure of a protein, formed as a result of amino-acid sequences folding into compact domains, is regarded as a key factor in its biological function. How and why proteins fold into specific topologies, remain the key focus of scientific research in the field of biophysics. By stripping down complex reactions down to the most basic elements, biophysicists aim to develop simplified models for biological phenomena such as antibody discrimination, viral fusion or self-assembly.

Without the solvent, universal quantities of the chain around the collapse transition temperature are well known. Hydrophobicity is then modelled through a lattice of solvent molecules in which each molecule can have Q states depending of an orientation v

Abstract:

The life cycle of Caulobacter crescentus is of interest because of the asymmetric nature of cell division that gives rise to progeny that have distinct morphology and function. One daughter called the stalked cell is sessile and capable of DNA replication, while the second daughter called the swarmer cell is motile but quiescent. Advances in microscopy combined with molecular biology techniques have revealed that macromolecules are localized in a non-homogeneous fashion in the cell cytoplasm, and that dynamic localization of proteins is critical for cell cycle progression and asymmetry.

Hygromycin A (HygA) binds to the large ribosomal subunit and inhibits its peptidyl transferase (PT) activity. The presented structural and biochemical data indicate that HygA does not interfere with the initial binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the A site, but prevents its subsequent adjustment such that it fails to act as a substrate in the PT reaction. Structurally we demonstrate that HygA binds within the peptidyl transferase center (PTC) and induces a unique conformation. Specifically in its ribosomal binding site HygA would overlap and clash with aminoacyl-A76 ribose moiety and, therefore, its

Genome-wide association studies have greatly improved our understanding of the contribution of common variants to the genetic architecture of complex traits.

First, common variant associations typically do not identify the causal variant and/or the gene that it is exerting its effect on to influence a trait. Second, common variant associations usually consist of variants with small effects. As a consequence, it is more challenging to harness their translational impact.

The mammalian protein POT1 binds to telomeric single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), protecting chromosome ends from being detected as sites of DNA damage. POT1 is composed of an N-terminal ssDNA-binding domain and a C-terminal protein interaction domain. With regard to the latter, POT1 heterodimerizes with the protein TPP1 to foster binding to telomeric ssDNA in vitro and binds the telomeric double-stranded-DNA-binding protein TRF2. We sought to determine which of these functions-ssDNA, TPP1, or TRF2 binding-was required to protect chromosome ends from being detected as DNA damage. Using separation-of-

Abstract:

TDP43 is an RNA and DNA binding protein that has been shown to play an integral role in disease mechanisms that underlie ALS. In fact, a common feature of the vast majority of ALS cases is the presence of TDP-43 aggregates in postmortem tissue from the brain and spinal cord. This finding has spurred research to understand the physiological roles of TDP-43 in the absence of disease, and how these roles are affected by disease. Current TDP-43 mouse models fail to faithfully and reproducibly recapitulate key aspects of ALS, possibly due to the transgenic approaches used. To address these concerns
