  text: Vascular dysfunctions are a common feature of multiple age-related diseases.
    However, modeling healthy and pathological aging of the human vasculature represents
    an unresolved experimental challenge. Here, we generated induced vascular endothelial
    cells (iVECs) and smooth muscle cells (iSMCs) by direct reprogramming of healthy
    human fibroblasts from donors of different ages and Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria
    Syndrome (HGPS) patients. iVECs induced from old donors revealed upregulation
    of GSTM1 and PALD1, genes linked to oxidative stress, inflammation and endothelial
    junction stability, as vascular aging markers. A functional assay performed on
    PALD1 KD VECs demonstrated a recovery in vascular permeability. We found that
    iSMCs from HGPS donors overexpressed bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)−4, which
    plays a key role in both vascular calcification and endothelial barrier damage
    observed in HGPS. Strikingly, BMP4 concentrations are higher in serum from HGPS
    vs. age-matched mice. Furthermore, targeting BMP4 with blocking antibody recovered
    the functionality of the vascular barrier in vitro, hence representing a potential
    future therapeutic strategy to limit cardiovascular dysfunction in HGPS. These
    results show that iVECs and iSMCs retain disease-related signatures, allowing
    modeling of vascular aging and HGPS in vitro.

  text: Transposable elements (TEs), the movement of which can damage the genome,
    are epigenetically silenced in eukaryotes. Intriguingly, TEs are activated in
    the sperm companion cell – vegetative cell (VC) – of the flowering plant Arabidopsis
    thaliana. However, the extent and mechanism of this activation are unknown. Here
    we show that about 100 heterochromatic TEs are activated in VCs, mostly by DEMETER-catalyzed
    DNA demethylation. We further demonstrate that DEMETER access to some of these
    TEs is permitted by the natural depletion of linker histone H1 in VCs. Ectopically
    expressed H1 suppresses TEs in VCs by reducing DNA demethylation and via a methylation-independent
    mechanism. We demonstrate that H1 is required for heterochromatin condensation
    in plant cells and show that H1 overexpression creates heterochromatic foci in
    the VC progenitor cell. Taken together, our results demonstrate that the natural
    depletion of H1 during male gametogenesis facilitates DEMETER-directed DNA demethylation,
    heterochromatin relaxation, and TE activation.

  text: The inner nuclear membrane (INM) is a subdomain of the endoplasmic reticulum
    (ER) that is gated by the nuclear pore complex. It is unknown whether proteins
    of the INM and ER are degraded through shared or distinct pathways in mammalian
    cells. We applied dynamic proteomics to profile protein half-lives and report
    that INM and ER residents turn over at similar rates, indicating that the INM’s
    unique topology is not a barrier to turnover. Using a microscopy approach, we
    observed that the proteasome can degrade INM proteins in situ. However, we also
    uncovered evidence for selective, vesicular transport-mediated turnover of a single
    INM protein, emerin, that is potentiated by ER stress. Emerin is rapidly cleared
    from the INM by a mechanism that requires emerin’s LEM domain to mediate vesicular
    trafficking to lysosomes. This work demonstrates that the INM can be dynamically
    remodeled in response to environmental inputs.

  text: 'The bacteriophage M13 has found frequent applications in nanobiotechnology
    due to its chemically and genetically tunable protein surface and its ability
    to self-assemble into colloidal membranes. Additionally, its single-stranded (ss)
    genome is commonly used as scaffold for DNA origami. Despite the manifold uses
    of M13, upstream production methods for phage and scaffold ssDNA are underexamined
    with respect to future industrial usage. Here, the high-cell-density phage production
    with Escherichia coli as host organism was studied in respect of medium composition,
    infection time, multiplicity of infection, and specific growth rate. The specific
    growth rate and the multiplicity of infection were identified as the crucial state
    variables that influence phage amplification rate on one hand and the concentration
    of produced ssDNA on the other hand. Using a growth rate of 0.15 h−1 and a multiplicity
    of infection of 0.05 pfu cfu−1 in the fed-batch production process, the concentration
    of pure isolated M13 ssDNA usable for scaffolded DNA origami could be enhanced
    by 54% to 590 mg L−1. Thus, our results help enabling M13 production for industrial
    uses in nanobiotechnology. Biotechnol. Bioeng. 2017;114: 777–784.'

  text: Biofilm formation is critical for the infection cycle of Vibrio cholerae.
    Vibrio exopolysaccharides (VPS) and the matrix proteins RbmA, Bap1 and RbmC are
    required for the development of biofilm architecture. We demonstrate that RbmA
    binds VPS directly and uses a binary structural switch within its first fibronectin
    type III (FnIII-1) domain to control RbmA structural dynamics and the formation
    of VPS-dependent higher-order structures. The structural switch in FnIII-1 regulates
    interactions in trans with the FnIII-2 domain, leading to open (monomeric) or
    closed (dimeric) interfaces. The ability of RbmA to switch between open and closed
    states is important for V. cholerae biofilm formation, as RbmA variants with switches
    that are locked in either of the two states lead to biofilms with altered architecture
    and structural integrity.

  text: Eukaryotic cells are densely packed with macromolecular complexes and intertwining
    organelles, continually transported and reshaped. Intriguingly, organelles avoid
    clashing and entangling with each other in such limited space. Mitochondria form
    extensive networks constantly remodeled by fission and fusion. Here, we show that
    mitochondrial fission is triggered by mechanical forces. Mechano-stimulation of
    mitochondria – via encounter with motile intracellular pathogens, via external
    pressure applied by an atomic force microscope, or via cell migration across uneven
    microsurfaces – results in the recruitment of the mitochondrial fission machinery,
    and subsequent division. We propose that MFF, owing to affinity for narrow mitochondria,
    acts as a membrane-bound force sensor to recruit the fission machinery to mechanically
    strained sites. Thus, mitochondria adapt to the environment by sensing and responding
    to biomechanical cues. Our findings that mechanical triggers can be coupled to
    biochemical responses in membrane dynamics may explain how organelles orderly
    cohabit in the crowded cytoplasm.
