Article Abstract
Eukaryotic cells have 2 to 3 discrete nucleoli required for ribosome synthesis. Nucleoli are phase separated nuclear sub-organelles. Here we examined the role of nuclear Lamins and nucleolar factors in modulating the compartmentalization and dynamics of histone 2B (H2B-ECFP) in the nucleolus. Live imaging and Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) of labelled H2B, showed that the depletion of Lamin B1, Fibrillarin (FBL) or Nucleostemin (GNL3), enhances H2B-ECFP mobility in the nucleolus. Furthermore, Nucleolin knockdown significantly decreases H2B-ECFP compartmentalization in the nucleolus, while H2B-ECFP residence and mobility in the nucleolus was prolonged upon Nucleolin overexpression. Co-expression of N-terminal and RNA binding domain (RBD) deletion mutants of Nucleolin or inhibiting 45S rRNA synthesis reduces the sequestration of H2B-ECFP in the nucleolus. Taken together, these studies reveal a crucial role of Nucleolin-rRNA complex in modulating the compartmentalization, stability and dynamics of H2B within the nucleolus.

Compartmental infectious disease models are used to calculate disease transmission, estimate underlying rates, forecast future burden, and compare benefits across intervention scenarios. These models aggregate individuals into compartments, often stratified by characteristics to represent groups that might be intervention targets or otherwise of particular concern. Ideally, model calculation could occur at the most demanding resolution for the overall analysis, but this may be infeasible due to availability of computational resources or empirical data.

Microfluidic platforms have emerged as powerful tools for investigating complex interactions between cells and their microenvironment. Conventional cancer models often fail to accurately replicate the complexities of the tumor microenvironment. In contrast, cancer-metastasis-on-a-chip models integrate the benefits of three-dimensional cell cultures with microfluidic technology, providing more physiologically relevant platforms for studying cancer biology and improving precision of drug screening.

The evolution of IAV populations at the within-host level, however, is still less well characterized. Improving our understanding of within-host IAV evolution has the potential to shed light on the source of new strains, including new antigenic variants, at the population level.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFHow genomic changes translate into organismal novelties is often confounded by the multi-layered nature of genome architecture and the long evolutionary timescales over which molecular changes accumulate. Coleoid cephalopods (squid, cuttlefish, and octopus) provide a unique system to study these processes due to a large-scale chromosomal rearrangement in the coleoid ancestor that resulted in highly modified karyotypes, followed by lineage-specific fusions, translocations, and repeat expansions. How these events have shaped gene regulatory patterns underlying the evolution of coleoid innovations, including their large and elaborately structured nervous systems, novel organs, and complex behaviours, remains poorly understood.
