On the hormonal control of posterior regeneration in the annelid Platynereis dumerilii
Abstract:
Regeneration is the process by which many animals are able to restore lost or injured body parts. After amputation of the posterior part of its body, the annelid Platynereis dumerilii is…
The Duharcourt Lab just published in Molecular Biology and Evolution :
Dynamics of gene loss following ancient whole-genome duplication in the cryptic Paramecium complex
Abstract:
Whole-genome duplications (WGDs) have shaped the gene repertoire of many eukaryotic lineages. The redundancy created by WGDs typically results in a phase of massive gene loss. However, some WGD-derived paralogs are maintained over long…
The Camadro Lab just published in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education :
A field guide for implementing a flipped classroom
Abstract :
The way flipped classrooms are perceived and even practiced by teachers is sometimes approximate. For instance, while the Covid-19 pandemic has pushed many universities to adopt distance learning, flipped classrooms have often been mentioned as…
Invited par Sébastien Léon, Simonetta Piatti (CRBM Montpellier), will give an IJM seminar on the theme:
Septin remodelling in the control of cytokinesis in budding yeast
Research field:
During cell division, chromosomes are faithfully duplicated and segregated, so that one copy of each chromosome can be inherited by the two daughter cells, which must carry identical genetic…
On Tuesday, June 20, 2023, the Monod-Diderot conferences will welcome in the François Jacob's room, Judith Frydman – (Department of Genetics and Biology at Stanford University) who will speak on the topic :
Molecular Origami: The TRiCky business of folding proteins in the cell
Abstract:
The eukaryotic chaperonin TRiC/CCT is a large hetero-oligomeric complex that plays an essential role assisting…
Invited by Nicolas Minc, Rut Carballido-Lopez (Micalis Institute, INRAE) will present an IJM seminar on the theme:
Actin-like MreB proteins: from single molecules to cell morphogenesis
Abstract:
How cells control their shape is a long-standing question in cell biology. In bacteria, the external peptidoglycan cell wall -one of the most prominent targets for antibiotics- is the primary…
Invited by Roshan Kumar Vijendravarma (Courtier Lab), Stephen J. Simpson (Charles Perkins Centre, The University of Sydney, Australia) will give a seminar on the theme:
The protein paradox – resolving the roles of dietary protein in obesity, ageing and age-related disease
Abstrat:
Reducing protein intake (and that of key amino acids) extends lifespan, especially during mid-life and…
