F-pili dynamics by live-cell imaging.
Bacteria have evolved numerous mechanisms for cell-cell communication, many of which have important consequences for human health. Among these is conjugation, the direct transfer of DNA from one cell to another. For gram-negative bacteria, conjugation requires thin, flexible filaments (conjugative pili) that are elaborated by DNA donor cells. The structure, function, and especially the dynamics...
متن کاملLive‐cell CRISPR imaging in plants reveals dynamic telomere movements
Elucidating the spatiotemporal organization of the genome inside the nucleus is imperative to our understanding of the regulation of genes and non-coding sequences during development and environmental changes. Emerging techniques of chromatin imaging promise to bridge the long-standing gap between sequencing studies, which reveal genomic information, and imaging studies that provide spatial and...
متن کاملDynamic Organization of Chromatin Domains Revealed by Super-Resolution Live-Cell Imaging.
The eukaryotic genome is organized within cells as chromatin. For proper information output, higher-order chromatin structures can be regulated dynamically. How such structures form and behave in various cellular processes remains unclear. Here, by combining super-resolution imaging (photoactivated localization microscopy [PALM]) and single-nucleosome tracking, we developed a nuclear imaging sy...
متن کاملEfficient cell migration requires global chromatin condensation.
Cell migration is a fundamental process that is necessary for the development and survival of multicellular organisms. Here, we show that cell migration is contingent on global condensation of the chromatin fiber. Induction of directed cell migration by the scratch-wound assay leads to decreased DNaseI sensitivity, alterations in the chromatin binding of architectural proteins and elevated leve...
متن کاملLive imaging of chromosome dynamics.
Progression of meiosis has been traditionally reconstructed from microscopic images collected from fixed cells. However, studies conducted in a number of species, including plants, indicate that this approach has clear shortcomings in accurately portraying the dynamic nature of meiotic processes. Here, we describe two methods to study chromosome dynamics in live meiocytes in maize, a protocol t...
