JNK signaling in pioneer neurons organizes ventral nerve cord architecture in Drosophila embryos
Abstract Morphogenesis of the Central Nervous System (CNS) is a complex process that obeys precise…
Structures of pMV158 replication initiator RepB with and without DNA reveal a flexible dual-function protein
A new hexameric and DNA-bound structure of RepB, the replication initiation protein of plasmid pMV158,…
A dynamic interplay between chitin synthase and the proteins Expansion/Rebuf reveals that chitin polymerisation and translocation are uncoupled in Drosophila
In this work we are advancing in our current understanding of the cellular and molecular…
Structure-function characterization of a virulence array of periodontopathogenic Tannerella forsythia
Periodontopathogenic Tannerella forsythia possesses the unique, tightly-regulated KLIKK-peptidase/potempin system in which six distinct metallo- and…

Condensin pinches a short negatively supercoiled DNA loop during each round of ATP usage
SMCs are essential protein complexes highly conserved in all life kingdoms. SMCs fold chromosomal DNA…
Measuring ventral nerve cord stiffness in live flat-dissected Drosophila embryos by atomic force microscopy
Abstract Drosophila is an amenable system for addressing the mechanics of morphogen-esis. We describe a…
Impaired macroglial development and axonal conductivity contributes to the neuropathology of DYRK1A‐related intellectual disability syndrome
DYRK1A haploinsufficiency alters the production of cortical astrocytes and oligodendrocyte progenitors during development, as well…
