Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Cap-dependent translation initiation monitored in living cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
mRNA translation is tightly regulated to preserve cellular homeostasis. Here live-cell spectroscopy and single-particle tracking are combined to interrogate the binding dynamics of endogenous initiation factors to mRNAs 5’cap, revealing the sequence of ...

A Complementary Mechanism of Bacterial mRNA Translation Inhibition by Tetracyclines

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Tetracycline has positively impacted human health as well as the farming and animal industries. Its extensive usage and versatility led to the spread of resistance mechanisms followed by the development of new variants of the antibiotic.

Genome transcription/translation of segmented, negative-strand RNA viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The requirements for alignment of capped RNA leader sequences along the viral genome during influenza transcription initiation (“cap-snatching”) have long been an enigma.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Translation initiation or elongation inhibition triggers contrasting effects on Caenorhabditis elegans survival during pathogen infection

open access: yesmBio
Diverse microbial pathogens are known to attenuate host protein synthesis. Consequently, the host mounts a defense response against protein translation inhibition, leading to increased transcript levels of immune genes.

Decoding the dynamic extracellular matrix in cancer—3D models and bioscaffolds rewire the rules of tumor progression

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.

Universal scanning-free initiation of eukaryote protein translation–a new normal

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2021
A unique feature of eukaryote initiation of protein translation is a so-called scanning of 5′-untranslated region (5′-UTR) by a ribosome initiation complex to enable bound Met-tRNAi access to the initiation codon located further downstream.

Specialized Yeast Ribosomes: A Customized Tool for Selective mRNA Translation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Evidence is now accumulating that sub-populations of ribosomes - so-called specialized ribosomes - can favour the translation of subsets of mRNAs. Here we use a large collection of diploid yeast strains, each deficient in one or other copy of the set of ...

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.
