Bridging spatial and temporal scales of developmental gene regulation

Andrés H. Cardona, Márcia Mesquita Peixoto, Tohn Borjigin +1

The development of multicellular organisms relies on the precise coordination of molecular events across multiple spatial and temporal scales. Understanding how information flows f…

Transcription factor clusters as information transfer agents

Rahul Munshi, Jia Ling, Sergey Ryabichko +2

Deciphering how genes interpret information from the concentration of transcription factors (TFs) within the cell nucleus remains a fundamental question in gene regulation. Recent…

Scale invariance in early embryonic development

Miloš Nikolić, Victoria Antonetti, Feng Liu +6

The body plan of the fruit fly is determined by the expression of just a handful of genes. We show that the spatial patterns of expression for several of these genes scale precisel…

Finding the last bits of positional information

Lauren McGough, Helena Casademunt, Miloš Nikolić +3

In a developing embryo, information about the position of cells is encoded in the concentrations of "morphogen" molecules. In the fruit fly, the local concentrations of just a hand…

Structured foraging of soil predators unveils functional responses to bacterial defenses

Fernando W. Rossine, Gabriel Vercelli, Corina E. Tarnita +1

Predators and their foraging strategies often determine ecosystem structure and function. Yet, the role of protozoan predators in microbial soil ecosystems remains elusive despite…
