Loop extrusion drives very different dynamics for Rouse chains in bulk solutions and at interfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The loop extrusion theory predicts that the loops of chromosomes are produced by cohesin molecules that uni-directionally extrude a chromatin fiber. We here use an extension of the Rouse model to predict the chain conformational dynamics driven by the ...

Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...

High-resolution CTCF footprinting reveals impact of chromatin state on cohesin extrusion

open access: yesNature Communications
Cohesin-mediated DNA loop extrusion enables gene regulation by distal enhancers through the establishment of chromosome structure and long-range enhancer-promoter interactions.

Mimetic Core‐Sheath Silk Sutures with Superior‐Strength for Pain Management, Anti‐Infection and Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sutures are crucial for tissue approximation and wound healing. Besides their strength limits requirement, they often fail to effectively address complications like infection and pain. Inspired by natural silk's “core‐sheath” structure, our suture features a wet‐spun core of n zinc‐fortified silk fibroin fibers (RSF‐Zn2+) after drawing with ...

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Scc2 counteracts a Wapl-independent mechanism that releases cohesin from chromosomes during G1

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Cohesin’s association with chromosomes is determined by loading dependent on the Scc2/4 complex and release due to Wapl. We show here that Scc2 also actively maintains cohesin on chromosomes during G1 in S. cerevisiae cells. It does so by blocking a Wapl-

Sodium Alginate‐Based Submucosal Lifting Hydrogel for Endoscopic Mucosal Resection and Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A biocompatible sodium alginate‐based hydrogel is developed as a next‐generation submucosal lifting agent intended for EMR and ESD. The optimized formulation exhibits a composition devoid of endotoxins, high viscosity, demonstrates reliable injectability, and ensures prolonged mucosal elevation.

A Mechanism of Cohesin-Dependent Loop Extrusion Organizes Zygotic Genome Architecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
SUMMARYFertilization triggers assembly of higher-order chromatin structure from a naïve genome to generate a totipotent embryo. Chromatin loops and domains are detected in mouse zygotes by single-nucleus Hi-C (snHi-C) but not bulk Hi-C.

An extrinsic motor directs chromatin loop formation by cohesin

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
The ring-shaped cohesin complex topologically entraps two DNA molecules to establish sister chromatid cohesion. Cohesin also shapes the interphase chromatin landscape with wide-ranging implications for gene regulation, and cohesin is thought to achieve ...
