  text: 'Clathrin-Mediated Endocytosis (CME) is an aspect of cellular trafficking
    that is constantly regulated for mediating developmental and physiological responses.
    The main aim of my thesis is to decipher the basic mechanisms of CME and post-endocytic
    trafficking in the whole multicellular organ systems of Arabidopsis. The first
    chapter of my thesis describes the search for new components involved in CME.
    Tandem affinity purification was conducted using CLC and its interacting partners
    were identified. Amongst the identified proteins were the Auxilin-likes1 and 2
    (Axl1/2), putative uncoating factors, for which we made a full functional analysis.
    Over-expression of Axl1/2 causes extreme modifications in the dynamics of the
    machinery proteins and inhibition of endocytosis altogether. However the loss
    of function of the axl1/2 did not present any cellular or physiological phenotype,
    meaning Auxilin-likes do not form the major uncoating machinery. The second chapter
    of my thesis describes the establishment/utilisation of techniques to capture
    the dynamicity and the complexity of CME and post-endocytic trafficking. We have
    studied the development of endocytic pits at the PM – specifically, the mode of
    membrane remodeling during pit development and the role of actin in it, given
    plant cells possess high turgor pressure. Utilizing the improved z-resolution
    of TIRF and VAEM techniques, we captured the time-lapse of the endocytic events
    at the plasma membrane; and using particle detection software, we quantitatively
    analysed all the endocytic trajectories in an unbiased way to obtain the endocytic
    rate of the system. This together with the direct analysis of cargo internalisation
    from the PM provided an estimate on the endocytic potential of the cell. We also
    developed a methodology for ultrastructural analysis of different populations
    of Clathrin-Coated Structures (CCSs) in both PM and endomembranes in unroofed
    protoplasts. Structural analysis, together with the intensity profile of CCSs
    at the PM show that the mode of CCP development at the PM follows ‘Constant curvature
    model’; meaning that clathrin polymerisation energy is a major contributing factor
    of membrane remodeling. In addition, other analyses clearly show that actin is
    not required for membrane remodeling during invagination or any other step of
    CCP development, despite the prevalent high turgor pressure. However, actin is
    essential in orchestrating the post-endocytic trafficking of CCVs facilitating
    the EE formation. We also observed that the uncoating process post-endocytosis
    is not immediate; an alternative mechanism of uncoating – Sequential multi-step
    process – functions in the cell. Finally we also looked at one of the important
    physiological stimuli modulating the process – hormone, auxin. auxin has been
    known to influence CME before. We have made a detailed study on the concentration-time
    based effect of auxin on the machinery proteins, CCP development, and the specificity
    of cargoes endocytosed. To this end, we saw no general effect of auxin on CME
    at earlier time points. However, very low concentration of IAA, such as 50nM,
    accelerates endocytosis of specifically PIN2 through CME. Such a tight regulatory
    control with high specificity to PIN2 could be essential in modulating its polarity. '

  text: "A process of restorative patterning in plant roots correctly replaces eliminated
    cells to heal local injuries despite the absence of cell migration, which underpins
    wound healing in animals. \r\n\r\nPatterning in plants relies on oriented cell
    divisions and acquisition of specific cell identities. Plants regularly endure
    wounds caused by abiotic or biotic environmental stimuli and have developed extraordinary
    abilities to restore their tissues after injuries. Here, we provide insight into
    a mechanism of restorative patterning that repairs tissues after wounding. Laser-assisted
    elimination of different cells in Arabidopsis root combined with live-imaging
    tracking during vertical growth allowed analysis of the regeneration processes
    in vivo. Specifically, the cells adjacent to the inner side of the injury re-activated
    their stem cell transcriptional programs. They accelerated their progression through
    cell cycle, coordinately changed the cell division orientation, and ultimately
    acquired de novo the correct cell fates to replace missing cells. These observations
    highlight existence of unknown intercellular positional signaling and demonstrate
    the capability of specified cells to re-acquire stem cell programs as a crucial
    part of the plant-specific mechanism of wound healing."

  text: "The regulation of gene expression is one of the most fundamental processes
    in living systems. In recent years, thanks to advances in sequencing technology
    and automation, it has become possible to study gene expression quantitatively,
    genome-wide and in high-throughput. This leads to the possibility of exploring
    changes in gene expression in the context of many external perturbations and their
    combinations, and thus of characterising the basic principles governing gene regulation.
    In this thesis, I present quantitative experimental approaches to studying transcriptional
    and protein level changes in response to combinatorial drug treatment, as well
    as a theoretical data-driven approach to analysing thermodynamic principles guiding
    transcription of protein coding genes.  \r\nIn the first part of this work, I
    present a novel methodological framework for quantifying gene expression changes
    in drug combinations, termed isogrowth profiling. External perturbations through
    small molecule drugs influence the growth rate of the cell, leading to wide-ranging
    changes in cellular physiology and gene expression. This confounds the gene expression
    changes specifically elicited by the particular drug. Combinatorial perturbations,
    owing to the increased stress they exert, influence the growth rate even more
    strongly and hence suffer the convolution problem to a greater extent when measuring
    gene expression changes. Isogrowth profiling is a way to experimentally abstract
    non-specific, growth rate related changes, by performing the measurement using
    varying ratios of two drugs at such concentrations that the overall inhibition
    rate is constant. Using a robotic setup for automated high-throughput re-dilution
    culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the budding yeast, I investigate all pairwise
    interactions of four small molecule drugs through sequencing RNA along a growth
    isobole. Through principal component analysis, I demonstrate here that isogrowth
    profiling can uncover drug-specific as well as drug-interaction-specific gene
    expression changes. I show that drug-interaction-specific gene expression changes
    can be used for prediction of higher-order drug interactions. I propose a simplified
    generalised framework of isogrowth profiling, with few measurements needed for
    each drug pair, enabling the broad application of isogrowth profiling to high-throughput
    screening of inhibitors of cellular growth and beyond. Such high-throughput screenings
    of gene expression changes specific to pairwise drug interactions will be instrumental
    for predicting the higher-order interactions of the drugs.\r\n\r\nIn the second
    part of this work, I extend isogrowth profiling to single-cell measurements of
    gene expression, characterising population heterogeneity in the budding yeast
    in response to combinatorial drug perturbation while controlling for non-specific
    growth rate effects. Through flow cytometry of strains with protein products fused
    to green fluorescent protein, I discover multiple proteins with bi-modally distributed
    expression levels in the population in response to drug treatment. I characterize
    more closely the effect of an ionic stressor, lithium chloride, and find that
    it inhibits the splicing of mRNA, most strongly affecting ribosomal protein transcripts
    and leading to a bi-stable behaviour of a small ribosomal subunit protein Rps22B.
    Time-lapse microscopy of a microfluidic culture system revealed that the induced
    Rps22B heterogeneity leads to preferential survival of Rps22B-low cells after
    long starvation, but to preferential proliferation of Rps22B-high cells after
    short starvation. Overall, this suggests that yeast cells might use splicing of
    ribosomal genes for bet-hedging in fluctuating environments. I give specific examples
    of how further exploration of cellular heterogeneity in yeast in response to external
    perturbation has the potential to reveal yet-undiscovered gene regulation circuitry.\r\n\r\nIn
    the last part of this thesis, a re-analysis of a published sequencing dataset
    of nascent elongating transcripts is used to characterise the thermodynamic constraints
    for RNA polymerase II (RNAP) elongation. Population-level data on RNAP position
    throughout the transcribed genome with single nucleotide resolution are used to
    infer the sequence specific thermodynamic determinants of RNAP pausing and backtracking.
    This analysis reveals that the basepairing strength of the eight nucleotide-long
    RNA:DNA duplex relative to the basepairing strength of the same sequence when
    in DNA:DNA duplex, and the change in this quantity during RNA polymerase movement,
    is the key determinant of RNAP pausing. This is true for RNAP pausing while elongating,
    but also of RNAP pausing while backtracking and of the backtracking length. The
    quantitative dependence of RNAP pausing on basepairing energetics is used to infer
    the increase in pausing due to transcriptional mismatches, leading to a hypothesis
    that pervasive RNA polymerase II pausing is due to basepairing energetics, as
    an evolutionary cost for increased RNA polymerase II fidelity.\r\n\r\nThis work
    advances our understanding of the general principles governing gene expression,
    with the goal of making computational predictions of single-cell gene expression
    responses to combinatorial perturbations based on the individual perturbations
    possible. This ability would substantially facilitate the design of drug combination
    treatments and, in the long term, lead to our increased ability to more generally
    design targeted manipulations to any biological system. "

  text: "Social insect colonies tend to have numerous members which function together
    like a single organism in such harmony that the term ``super-organism'' is often
    used. In this analogy the reproductive caste is analogous to the primordial germ\r\ncells
    of a metazoan, while the sterile worker caste corresponds to somatic cells. The
    worker castes, like tissues, are\r\nin charge of all functions of a living being,
    besides reproduction. The establishment of new super-organismal units\r\n(i.e.
    new colonies) is accomplished by the co-dependent castes. The term oftentimes
    goes beyond a metaphor. We invoke it when we speak about the metabolic rate, thermoregulation,
    nutrient regulation and gas exchange of a social insect colony. Furthermore, we
    assert that the super-organism has an immune system, and benefits from ``social
    immunity''.\r\n\r\nSocial immunity was first summoned by evolutionary biologists
    to resolve the apparent discrepancy between the expected high frequency of disease
    outbreak amongst numerous, closely related tightly-interacting hosts, living in
    stable and microbially-rich environments, against the exceptionally scarce epidemic
    accounts in natural populations. Social\r\nimmunity comprises a multi-layer assembly
    of behaviours which have evolved to effectively keep the pathogenic enemies of
    a colony at bay. The field of social immunity has drawn interest, as it becomes
    increasingly urgent to stop\r\nthe collapse of pollinator species and curb the
    growth of invasive pests. In the past decade, several mechanisms of\r\nsocial
    immune responses have been dissected, but many more questions remain open.\r\n\r\nI
    present my work in two experimental chapters. In the first, I use invasive garden
    ants (*Lasius neglectus*) to study how pathogen load and its distribution among
    nestmates affect the grooming response of the group. Any given group of ants will
    carry out the same total grooming work, but will direct their grooming effort
    towards individuals\r\ncarrying a relatively higher spore load. Contrary to expectation,
    the highest risk of transmission does not stem from grooming highly contaminated
    ants, but instead, we suggest that the grooming response likely minimizes spore
    loss to the environment, reducing contamination from inadvertent pickup from the
    substrate.\r\n\r\nThe second is a comparative developmental approach. I follow
    black garden ant queens (*Lasius niger*) and their colonies from mating flight,
    through hibernation for a year. Colonies which grow fast from the start, have
    a lower chance of survival through hibernation, and those which survive grow at
    a lower pace later. This is true for colonies of naive\r\nand challenged queens.
    Early pathogen exposure of the queens changes colony dynamics in an unexpected
    way: colonies from exposed queens are more likely to grow slowly and recover in
    numbers only after they survive hibernation.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the two experimental
    chapters, this thesis includes a co-authored published review on organisational\r\nimmunity,
    where we enlist the experimental evidence and theoretical framework on which this
    hypothesis is built,\r\nidentify the caveats and underline how the field is ripe
    to overcome them. In a final chapter, I describe my part in\r\ntwo collaborative
    efforts, one to develop an image-based tracker, and the second to develop a classifier
    for ant\r\nbehaviour."

  text: Segregation of maternal determinants within the oocyte constitutes the first
    step in embryo patterning. In zebrafish oocytes, extensive ooplasmic streaming
    leads to the segregation of ooplasm from yolk granules along the animal-vegetal
    axis of the oocyte. Here, we show that this process does not rely on cortical
    actin reorganization, as previously thought, but instead on a cell-cycle-dependent
    bulk actin polymerization wave traveling from the animal to the vegetal pole of
    the oocyte. This wave functions in segregation by both pulling ooplasm animally
    and pushing yolk granules vegetally. Using biophysical experimentation and theory,
    we show that ooplasm pulling is mediated by bulk actin network flows exerting
    friction forces on the ooplasm, while yolk granule pushing is achieved by a mechanism
    closely resembling actin comet formation on yolk granules. Our study defines a
    novel role of cell-cycle-controlled bulk actin polymerization waves in oocyte
    polarization via ooplasmic segregation.

  text: "Invasive migration plays a crucial role not only during development and homeostasis
    but also in pathological states, such as tumor metastasis. Drosophila macrophage
    migration into the extended germband is an interesting system to study invasive
    migration. It carries similarities to immune cell transmigration and cancer cell
    invasion, therefore studying this process could also bring new understanding of
    invasion in higher organisms. In our work, we uncover a highly conserved member
    of the major facilitator family that plays a role in tissue invasion through regulation
    of glycosylation on a subgroup of proteins and/or by aiding the precise timing
    of DN-Cadherin downregulation. \r\n\r\nAberrant display of the truncated core1
    O-glycan T-antigen is a common feature of human cancer cells that correlates with
    metastasis. Here we show that T-antigen in Drosophila melanogaster macrophages
    is involved in their developmentally programmed tissue invasion. Higher macrophage
    T-antigen levels require an atypical major facilitator superfamily (MFS) member
    that we named Minerva which enables macrophage dissemination and invasion. We
    characterize for the first time the T and Tn glycoform O-glycoproteome of the
    Drosophila melanogaster embryo, and determine that Minerva increases the presence
    of T-antigen on proteins in pathways previously linked to cancer, most strongly
    on the sulfhydryl oxidase Qsox1 which we show is required for macrophage tissue
    entry. Minerva’s vertebrate ortholog, MFSD1, rescues the minerva mutant’s migration
    and T-antigen glycosylation defects. We thus identify \r\na key conserved regulator
    that orchestrates O-glycosylation on a protein subset to activate \r\na program
    governing migration steps important for both development and cancer metastasis.

  text: 'In the here presented thesis, we explore the role of branched actin networks
    in cell migration and antigen presentation, the two most relevant processes in
    dendritic cell biology. Branched actin networks construct lamellipodial protrusions
    at the leading edge of migrating cells. These are typically seen as adhesive structures,
    which mediate force transduction to the extracellular matrix that leads to forward
    locomotion. We ablated Arp2/3 nucleation promoting factor WAVE in DCs and found
    that the resulting cells lack lamellipodial protrusions. Instead, depending on
    the maturation state, one or multiple filopodia were formed. By challenging these
    cells in a variety of migration assays we found that lamellipodial protrusions
    are dispensable for the locomotion of leukocytes and actually dampen the speed
    of migration. However, lamellipodia are critically required to negotiate complex
    environments that DCs experience while they travel to the next draining lymph
    node. Taken together our results suggest that leukocyte lamellipodia have rather
    a sensory- than a force transducing function. Furthermore, we show for the first
    time structure and dynamics of dendritic cell F-actin at the immunological synapse
    with naïve T cells. Dendritic cell F-actin appears as dynamic foci that are nucleated
    by the Arp2/3 complex. WAVE ablated dendritic cells show increased membrane tension,
    leading to an altered ultrastructure of the immunological synapse and severe T
    cell priming defects. These results point towards a previously unappreciated role
    of the cellular mechanics of dendritic cells in T cell activation. Additionally,
    we present a novel cell culture based system for the differentiation of dendritic
    cells from conditionally immortalized hematopoietic precursors. These precursor
    cells are genetically tractable via the CRISPR/Cas9 system while they retain their
    ability to differentiate into highly migratory dendritic cells and other immune
    cells. This will foster the study of all aspects of dendritic cell biology and
    beyond. '

  text: Buffers are essential for diluting bacterial cultures for flow cytometry analysis
    in order to study bacterial physiology and gene expression parameters based on
    fluorescence signals. Using a variety of constitutively expressed fluorescent
    proteins in Escherichia coli K-12 strain MG1655, we found strong artifactual changes
    in fluorescence levels after dilution into the commonly used flow cytometry buffer
    phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and two other buffer solutions, Tris-HCl and M9
    salts. These changes appeared very rapidly after dilution, and were linked to
    increased membrane permeability and loss in cell viability. We observed buffer-related
    effects in several different E. coli strains, K-12, C and W, but not E. coli B,
    which can be partially explained by differences in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and
    outer membrane composition. Supplementing the buffers with divalent cations responsible
    for outer membrane stability, Mg2+ and Ca2+, preserved fluorescence signals, membrane
    integrity and viability of E. coli. Thus, stabilizing the bacterial outer membrane
    is essential for precise and unbiased measurements of fluorescence parameters
    using flow cytometry.

  text: 'Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are a group of genetic disorders often overlapping
    with other neurological conditions. Despite the remarkable number of scientific
    breakthroughs of the last 100 years, the treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders
    (e.g. autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, epilepsy) remains a great
    challenge. Recent advancements in geno mics, like whole-exome or whole-genome
    sequencing, have enabled scientists to identify numerous mutations underlying
    neurodevelopmental disorders. Given the few hundred risk genes that were discovered,
    the etiological variability and the heterogeneous phenotypic outcomes, the need
    for genotype -along with phenotype- based diagnosis of individual patients becomes
    a requisite. Driven by this rationale, in a previous study our group described
    mutations, identified via whole - exome sequencing, in the gene BCKDK – encoding
    for a key regulator of branched chain amin o acid (BCAA) catabolism - as a cause
    of ASD. Following up on the role of BCAAs, in the study described here we show
    that the solute carrier transporter 7a5 (SLC7A5), a large neutral amino acid transporter
    localized mainly at the blood brain barrier (BBB), has an essential role in maintaining
    normal levels of brain BCAAs. In mice, deletion of Slc7a5 from the endothelial
    cells of the BBB leads to atypical brain amino acid profile, abnormal mRNA translation
    and severe neurolo gical abnormalities. Additionally, deletion of Slc7a5 from
    the neural progenitor cell population leads to microcephaly. Interestingly, we
    demonstrate that BCAA intracerebroventricular administration ameliorates abnormal
    behaviors in adult mutant mice. Furthermore, whole - exome sequencing of patients
    diagnosed with neurological dis o r ders helped us identify several patients with
    autistic traits, microcephaly and motor delay carrying deleterious homozygous
    mutations in the SLC7A5 gene. In conclusion, our data elucidate a neurological
    syndrome defined by SLC7A5 mutations and support an essential role for t he BCAA
    s in human bra in function. Together with r ecent studies (described in chapter
    two) that have successfully made the transition into clinical practice, our findings
    on the role of B CAAs might have a crucial impact on the development of novel
    individualized therapeutic strategies for ASD. '

  text: During metastasis, malignant cells escape the primary tumor, intravasate lymphatic
    vessels, and reach draining sentinel lymph nodes before they colonize distant
    organs via the blood circulation. Although lymph node metastasis in cancer patients
    correlates with poor prognosis, evidence is lacking as to whether and how tumor
    cells enter the bloodstream via lymph nodes. To investigate this question, we
    delivered carcinoma cells into the lymph nodes of mice by microinfusing the cells
    into afferent lymphatic vessels. We found that tumor cells rapidly infiltrated
    the lymph node parenchyma, invaded blood vessels, and seeded lung metastases without
    involvement of the thoracic duct. These results suggest that the lymph node blood
    vessels can serve as an exit route for systemic dissemination of cancer cells
    in experimental mouse models. Whether this form of tumor cell spreading occurs
    in cancer patients remains to be determined.

  text: 'One of the key questions in understanding plant development is how single
    cells behave in a larger context of the tissue. Therefore, it requires the observation
    of the whole organ with a high spatial- as well as temporal resolution over prolonged
    periods of time, which may cause photo-toxic effects. This protocol shows a plant
    sample preparation method for light-sheet microscopy, which is characterized by
    mounting the plant vertically on the surface of a gel. The plant is mounted in
    such a way that the roots are submerged in a liquid medium while the leaves remain
    in the air. In order to ensure photosynthetic activity of the plant, a custom-made
    lighting system illuminates the leaves. To keep the roots in darkness the water
    surface is covered with sheets of black plastic foil. This method allows long-term
    imaging of plant organ development in standardized conditions. '

  text: 'GABAergic synapses in brain circuits generate inhibitory output signals with
    submillisecond latency and temporal precision. Whether the molecular identity
    of the release sensor contributes to these signaling properties remains unclear.
    Here, we examined the Ca^2+ sensor of exocytosis at GABAergic basket cell (BC)
    to Purkinje cell (PC) synapses in cerebellum. Immunolabeling suggested that BC
    terminals selectively expressed synaptotagmin 2 (Syt2), whereas synaptotagmin
    1 (Syt1) was enriched in excitatory terminals. Genetic elimination of Syt2 reduced
    action potential-evoked release to ∼10%, identifying Syt2 as the major Ca^2+ sensor
    at BC-PC synapses. Differential adenovirus-mediated rescue revealed that Syt2
    triggered release with shorter latency and higher temporal precision and mediated
    faster vesicle pool replenishment than Syt1. Furthermore, deletion of Syt2 severely
    reduced and delayed disynaptic inhibition following parallel fiber stimulation.
    Thus, the selective use of Syt2 as release sensor at BC-PC synapses ensures fast
    and efficient feedforward inhibition in cerebellar microcircuits. #bioimagingfacility-author'

  text: Eukaryotic cells store their chromosomes in a single nucleus. This is important
    to maintain genomic integrity, as chromosomes packaged into separate nuclei (micronuclei)
    are prone to massive DNA damage. During mitosis, higher eukaryotes disassemble
    their nucleus and release individualized chromosomes for segregation. How numerous
    chromosomes subsequently reform a single nucleus has remained unclear. Using image-based
    screening of human cells, we identified barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF)
    as a key factor guiding membranes to form a single nucleus. Unexpectedly, nuclear
    assembly does not require BAF?s association with inner nuclear membrane proteins
    but instead relies on BAF?s ability to bridge distant DNA sites. Live-cell imaging
    and in vitro reconstitution showed that BAF enriches around the mitotic chromosome
    ensemble to induce a densely cross-bridged chromatin layer that is mechanically
    stiff and limits membranes to the surface. Our study reveals that BAF-mediated
    changes in chromosome mechanics underlie nuclear assembly with broad implications
    for proper genome function.

  text: The concerted production of neurons and glia by neural stem cells (NSCs) is
    essential for neural circuit assembly. In the developing cerebral cortex, radial
    glia progenitors (RGPs) generate nearly all neocortical neurons and certain glia
    lineages. RGP proliferation behavior shows a high degree of non-stochasticity,
    thus a deterministic characteristic of neuron and glia production. However, the
    cellular and molecular mechanisms controlling RGP behavior and proliferation dynamics
    in neurogenesis and glia generation remain unknown. By using mosaic analysis with
    double markers (MADM)-based genetic paradigms enabling the sparse and global knockout
    with unprecedented single-cell resolution, we identified Lgl1 as a critical regulatory
    component. We uncover Lgl1-dependent tissue-wide community effects required for
    embryonic cortical neurogenesis and novel cell-autonomous Lgl1 functions controlling
    RGP-mediated glia genesis and postnatal NSC behavior. These results suggest that
    NSC-mediated neuron and glia production is tightly regulated through the concerted
    interplay of sequential Lgl1-dependent global and cell intrinsic mechanisms.

  text: Roots navigate through soil integrating environmental signals to orient their
    growth. The Arabidopsis root is a widely used model for developmental, physiological
    and cell biological studies. Live imaging greatly aids these efforts, but the
    horizontal sample position and continuous root tip displacement present significant
    difficulties. Here, we develop a confocal microscope setup for vertical sample
    mounting and integrated directional illumination. We present TipTracker – a custom
    software for automatic tracking of diverse moving objects usable on various microscope
    setups. Combined, this enables observation of root tips growing along the natural
    gravity vector over prolonged periods of time, as well as the ability to induce
    rapid gravity or light stimulation. We also track migrating cells in the developing
    zebrafish embryo, demonstrating the utility of this system in the acquisition
    of high-resolution data sets of dynamic samples. We provide detailed descriptions
    of the tools enabling the easy implementation on other microscopes.

  text: Bacterial cytokinesis is commonly initiated by the Z-ring, a dynamic cytoskeletal
    structure that assembles at the site of division. Its primary component is FtsZ,
    a tubulin-like GTPase, that like its eukaryotic relative forms protein filaments
    in the presence of GTP. Since the discovery of the Z-ring 25 years ago, various
    models for the role of FtsZ have been suggested. However, important information
    about the architecture and dynamics of FtsZ filaments during cytokinesis is still
    missing. One reason for this lack of knowledge has been the small size of bacteria,
    which has made it difficult to resolve the orientation and dynamics of individual
    FtsZ filaments in the Z-ring. While superresolution microscopy experiments have
    helped to gain more information about the organization of the Z-ring in the dividing
    cell, they were not yet able to elucidate a mechanism of how FtsZ filaments reorganize
    during assembly and disassembly of the Z-ring. In this chapter, we explain how
    to use an in vitro reconstitution approach to investigate the self-organization
    of FtsZ filaments recruited to a biomimetic lipid bilayer by its membrane anchor
    FtsA. We show how to perform single-molecule experiments to study the behavior
    of individual FtsZ monomers during the constant reorganization of the FtsZ-FtsA
    filament network. We describe how to analyze the dynamics of single molecules
    and explain why this information can help to shed light onto possible mechanism
    of Z-ring constriction. We believe that similar experimental approaches will be
    useful to study the mechanism of membrane-based polymerization of other cytoskeletal
    systems, not only from prokaryotic but also eukaryotic origin.

  text: "Directed cell migration is a hallmark feature, present in almost all multi-cellular\r\norganisms.
    Despite its importance, basic questions regarding force transduction\r\nor directional
    sensing are still heavily investigated. Directed migration of cells\r\nguided
    by immobilized guidance cues - haptotaxis - occurs in key-processes,\r\nsuch as
    embryonic development and immunity (Middleton et al., 1997; Nguyen\r\net al.,
    2000; Thiery, 1984; Weber et al., 2013). Immobilized guidance cues\r\ncomprise
    adhesive ligands, such as collagen and fibronectin (Barczyk et al.,\r\n2009),
    or chemokines - the main guidance cues for migratory leukocytes\r\n(Middleton
    et al., 1997; Weber et al., 2013). While adhesive ligands serve as\r\nattachment
    sites guiding cell migration (Carter, 1965), chemokines instruct\r\nhaptotactic
    migration by inducing adhesion to adhesive ligands and directional\r\nguidance
    (Rot and Andrian, 2004; Schumann et al., 2010). Quantitative analysis\r\nof the
    cellular response to immobilized guidance cues requires in vitro assays\r\nthat
    foster cell migration, offer accurate control of the immobilized cues on a\r\nsubcellular
    scale and in the ideal case closely reproduce in vivo conditions. The\r\nexploration
    of haptotactic cell migration through design and employment of such\r\nassays
    represents the main focus of this work.\r\nDendritic cells (DCs) are leukocytes,
    which after encountering danger\r\nsignals such as pathogens in peripheral organs
    instruct naïve T-cells and\r\nconsequently the adaptive immune response in the
    lymph node (Mellman and\r\nSteinman, 2001). To reach the lymph node from the periphery,
    DCs follow\r\nhaptotactic gradients of the chemokine CCL21 towards lymphatic vessels\r\n(Weber
    et al., 2013). Questions about how DCs interpret haptotactic CCL21\r\ngradients
    have not yet been addressed. The main reason for this is the lack of\r\nan assay
    that offers diverse haptotactic environments, hence allowing the study\r\nof DC
    migration as a response to different signals of immobilized guidance cue.\r\nIn
    this work, we developed an in vitro assay that enables us to\r\nquantitatively
    assess DC haptotaxis, by combining precisely controllable\r\nchemokine photo-patterning
    with physically confining migration conditions. With this tool at hand, we studied
    the influence of CCL21 gradient properties and\r\nconcentration on DC haptotaxis.
    We found that haptotactic gradient sensing\r\ndepends on the absolute CCL21 concentration
    in combination with the local\r\nsteepness of the gradient. Our analysis suggests
    that the directionality of\r\nmigrating DCs is governed by the signal-to-noise
    ratio of CCL21 binding to its\r\nreceptor CCR7. Moreover, the haptotactic CCL21
    gradient formed in vivo\r\nprovides an optimal shape for DCs to recognize haptotactic
    guidance cue.\r\nBy reconstitution of the CCL21 gradient in vitro we were also
    able to\r\nstudy the influence of CCR7 signal termination on DC haptotaxis. To
    this end,\r\nwe used DCs lacking the G-protein coupled receptor kinase GRK6, which
    is\r\nresponsible for CCL21 induced CCR7 receptor phosphorylation and\r\ndesensitization
    (Zidar et al., 2009). We found that CCR7 desensitization by\r\nGRK6 is crucial
    for maintenance of haptotactic CCL21 gradient sensing in vitro\r\nand confirm
    those observations in vivo.\r\nIn the context of the organism, immobilized haptotactic
    guidance cues\r\noften coincide and compete with soluble chemotactic guidance
    cues. During\r\nwound healing, fibroblasts are exposed and influenced by adhesive
    cues and\r\nsoluble factors at the same time (Wu et al., 2012; Wynn, 2008). Similarly,\r\nmigrating
    DCs are exposed to both, soluble chemokines (CCL19 and truncated\r\nCCL21) inducing
    chemotactic behavior as well as the immobilized CCL21. To\r\nquantitatively assess
    these complex coinciding immobilized and soluble\r\nguidance cues, we implemented
    our chemokine photo-patterning technique in a\r\nmicrofluidic system allowing
    for chemotactic gradient generation. To validate\r\nthe assay, we observed DC
    migration in competing CCL19/CCL21\r\nenvironments.\r\nAdhesiveness guided haptotaxis
    has been studied intensively over the\r\nlast century. However, quantitative studies
    leading to conceptual models are\r\nlargely missing, again due to the lack of
    a precisely controllable in vitro assay. A\r\nrequirement for such an in vitro
    assay is that it must prevent any uncontrolled\r\ncell adhesion. This can be accomplished
    by stable passivation of the surface. In\r\naddition, controlled adhesion must
    be sustainable, quantifiable and dose\r\ndependent in order to create homogenous
    gradients. Therefore, we developed a novel covalent photo-patterning technique
    satisfying all these needs. In\r\ncombination with a sustainable poly-vinyl alcohol
    (PVA) surface coating we\r\nwere able to generate gradients of adhesive cue to
    direct cell migration. This\r\napproach allowed us to characterize the haptotactic
    migratory behavior of\r\nzebrafish keratocytes in vitro. Furthermore, defined
    patterns of adhesive cue\r\nallowed us to control for cell shape and growth on
    a subcellular scale."

  text: Chemokines are the main guidance cues directing leukocyte migration. Opposed
    to early assumptions, chemokines do not necessarily act as soluble cues but are
    often immobilized within tissues, e.g., dendritic cell migration toward lymphatic
    vessels is guided by a haptotactic gradient of the chemokine CCL21. Controlled
    assay systems to quantitatively study haptotaxis in vitro are still missing. In
    this chapter, we describe an in vitro haptotaxis assay optimized for the unique
    properties of dendritic cells. The chemokine CCL21 is immobilized in a bioactive
    state, using laser-assisted protein adsorption by photobleaching. The cells follow
    this immobilized CCL21 gradient in a haptotaxis chamber, which provides three
    dimensionally confined migration conditions.

  text: Auxin and cytokinin are key endogenous regulators of plant development. Although
    cytokinin-mediated modulation of auxin distribution is a developmentally crucial
    hormonal interaction, its molecular basis is largely unknown. Here we show a direct
    regulatory link between cytokinin signalling and the auxin transport machinery
    uncovering a mechanistic framework for cytokinin-auxin cross-talk. We show that
    the CYTOKININ RESPONSE FACTORS (CRFs), transcription factors downstream of cytokinin
    perception, transcriptionally control genes encoding PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin transporters
    at a specific PIN CYTOKININ RESPONSE ELEMENT (PCRE) domain. Removal of this cis-regulatory
    element effectively uncouples PIN transcription from the CRF-mediated cytokinin
    regulation and attenuates plant cytokinin sensitivity. We propose that CRFs represent
    a missing cross-talk component that fine-tunes auxin transport capacity downstream
    of cytokinin signalling to control plant development.

  text: Epithelial spreading is a common and fundamental aspect of various developmental
    and disease-related processes such as epithelial closure and wound healing. A
    key challenge for epithelial tissues undergoing spreading is to increase their
    surface area without disrupting epithelial integrity. Here we show that orienting
    cell divisions by tension constitutes an efficient mechanism by which the enveloping
    cell layer (EVL) releases anisotropic tension while undergoing spreading during
    zebrafish epiboly. The control of EVL cell-division orientation by tension involves
    cell elongation and requires myosin II activity to align the mitotic spindle with
    the main tension axis. We also found that in the absence of tension-oriented cell
    divisions and in the presence of increased tissue tension, EVL cells undergo ectopic
    fusions, suggesting that the reduction of tension anisotropy by oriented cell
    divisions is required to prevent EVL cells from fusing. We conclude that cell-division
    orientation by tension constitutes a key mechanism for limiting tension anisotropy
    and thus promoting tissue spreading during EVL epiboly.
