17/04/202012:00MARIE CURIEPRBB-CRG SessionsMontserrat EliasUniversidad de Murcia"Bacterial “vision” and how its study unmasked a long-sought human enzyme"Host: Vivek MalhotraAbstract:Light is a crucial environmental signal and energy source that determines many metabolic, developmental and behavioral processes in most living organisms. It also causes photooxidative stress and cellular damage by generating highly reactive oxygen species like singlet oxygen, which attack cellular proteins, DNA and lipids. We study the molecular mechanisms by which the Gram-negative, predatory soil bacterium Myxococcus xanthus responds to light and their evolutionary conservation from bacteria to...

The functional characterization of the endosomal Rab5 machinery using biochemical and biophysical approaches has revealed new properties for the self-organization and mechanics of the endosomal membrane. Endosomes are important organelles for the...

Rehovot, Israel"Functions and modes of action of long noncoding RNAs in mammalian cells"Host: Jorge FerrerAbstract:We are interested in understanding the codes that drive the functions of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in mammalian cells. It is now well appreciated that the human genome encodes tens of thousands of distinct lncRNA transcripts, and an increasing number are implicated as regulators in critical pathways in health and disease. The mechanisms underlying their activity, to what extent these rely on specific sequences...
