Fitness effects of horizontal gene transfer Bacteria living in multispecies communities can benefit from a gene pool shared through horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Because alleles, genes, and even operons can be acquired…

Molecular Mechanisms Underlying the Energy Currents of Life Description: Biological energy conversion is catalyzed by gigantic membrane-bound protein complexes that transduce redox energy into a trans-membrane proton…

LEICA UPRIGHT WIDEFIELD DM6000B LOCATION: Room 07.090 SPECIFICATIONS: standard upright fluorescence microscope with color camera for standard light or fluorescence microscopy Stand: Leica DM6000 automated XY-stage available…

Dissecting symbiotic interactions in the gut microbiota using the honeybee model Animals often harbor specialized gut microbial communities, exerting significant physiological and metabolic influences on their hosts.…

Regulation of skeletal muscle cell plasticity in health and disease Skeletal muscle has an enormous capacity to adapt to external stimuli including physical activity, oxygen levels, ambient temperature, nutrient availability…

Nanoscale tracking of molecules and ions at biointerfaces: from individual diffusion to correlative group effects Biological membranes are dynamical entities that can rapidly adjust their composition and biophysical…

Bacterial biofilms, pigments and javelins Multicellular aggregates contain chemical gradients that promote physiological differentiation, and this contributes to drug tolerance in structures such as tumors and infectious…

Selective transport control in biomimetic and cellular systems Karyopherin-centric control of nuclear pores (SNF/SNI) Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are 50 nm-diameter aqueous channels that function as the main transport hubs…

Using Cryo-Electron Tomography to establish the determinants of COPII-mediated membrane remodeling COPII mediates Endoplasmic Reticulum to Golgi trafficking of thousands of cargoes. Five essential proteins assemble into a…
