  text: "Most energy in humans is produced in form of ATP by the mitochondrial respiratory
    chain consisting of several protein assemblies embedded into lipid membrane (complexes
    I-V). Complex I is the first and the largest enzyme of the respiratory chain which
    is essential for energy production. It couples the transfer of two electrons from
    NADH to ubiquinone with proton translocation across bacterial or inner mitochondrial
    membrane. The coupling mechanism between electron transfer and proton translocation
    is one of the biggest enigma in bioenergetics and structural biology. Even though
    the enzyme has been studied for decades, only recent technological advances in
    cryo-EM allowed its extensive structural investigation. \r\n\r\nComplex I from
    E.coli appears to be of special importance because it is a perfect model system
    with a rich mutant library, however the structure of the entire complex was unknown.
    In this thesis I have resolved structures of the minimal complex I version from
    E. coli in different states including reduced, inhibited, under reaction turnover
    and several others. Extensive structural analyses of these structures and comparison
    to structures from other species allowed to derive general features of conformational
    dynamics and propose a universal coupling mechanism. The mechanism is straightforward,
    robust and consistent with decades of experimental data available for complex
    I from different species. \r\n\r\nCyanobacterial NDH (cyanobacterial complex I)
    is a part of broad complex I superfamily and was studied as well in this thesis.
    It plays an important role in cyclic electron transfer (CET), during which electrons
    are cycled within PSI through ferredoxin and plastoquinone to generate proton
    gradient without NADPH production. Here, I solved structure of NDH and revealed
    additional state, which was not observed before. The novel “resting” state allowed
    to propose the mechanism of CET regulation. Moreover, conformational dynamics
    of NDH resembles one in complex I which suggest more broad universality of the
    proposed coupling mechanism.\r\n\r\nIn summary, results presented here helped
    to interpret decades of experimental data for complex I and contributed to fundamental
    mechanistic understanding of protein function.\r\n"

  text: "The tight spatiotemporal coordination of signaling activity determining embryo\r\npatterning
    and the physical processes driving embryo morphogenesis renders\r\nembryonic development
    robust, such that key developmental processes can unfold\r\nrelatively normally
    even outside of the full embryonic context. For instance, embryonic\r\nstem cell
    cultures can recapitulate the hallmarks of gastrulation, i.e. break symmetry\r\nleading
    to germ layer formation and morphogenesis, in a very reduced environment.\r\nThis
    leads to questions on specific contributions of embryo-specific features, such
    as\r\nthe presence of extraembryonic tissues, which are inherently involved in
    gastrulation\r\nin the full embryonic context. To address this, we established
    zebrafish embryonic\r\nexplants without the extraembryonic yolk cell, an important
    player as a signaling\r\nsource and for morphogenesis during gastrulation, as
    a model of ex vivo development.\r\nWe found that dorsal-marginal determinants
    are required and sufficient in these\r\nexplants to form and pattern all three
    germ layers. However, formation of tissues,\r\nwhich require the highest Nodal-signaling
    levels, is variable, demonstrating a\r\ncontribution of extraembryonic tissues
    for reaching peak Nodal signaling levels.\r\nBlastoderm explants also undergo
    gastrulation-like axis elongation. We found that this\r\nelongation movement shows
    hallmarks of oriented mesendoderm cell intercalations\r\ntypically associated
    with dorsal tissues in the intact embryo. These are disrupted by\r\nuniform upregulation
    of BMP signaling activity and concomitant explant ventralization,\r\nsuggesting
    that tight spatial control of BMP signaling is a prerequisite for explant\r\nmorphogenesis.
    This control is achieved by Nodal signaling, which is critical for\r\neffectively
    downregulating BMP signaling in the mesendoderm, highlighting that Nodal\r\nsignaling
    is not only directly required for mesendoderm cell fate specification and\r\nmorphogenesis,
    but also by maintaining low levels of BMP signaling at the dorsal side.\r\nCollectively,
    we provide insights into the capacity and organization of signaling and\r\nmorphogenetic
    domains to recapitulate features of zebrafish gastrulation outside of\r\nthe full
    embryonic context."

  text: As a crucial nitrogen source, nitrate (NO3−) is a key nutrient for plants.
    Accordingly, root systems adapt to maximize NO3− availability, a developmental
    regulation also involving the phytohormone auxin. Nonetheless, the molecular mechanisms
    underlying this regulation remain poorly understood. Here, we identify low-nitrate-resistant
    mutant (lonr) in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), whose root growth fails to
    adapt to low-NO3− conditions. lonr2 is defective in the high-affinity NO3− transporter
    NRT2.1. lonr2 (nrt2.1) mutants exhibit defects in polar auxin transport, and their
    low-NO3−-induced root phenotype depends on the PIN7 auxin exporter activity. NRT2.1
    directly associates with PIN7 and antagonizes PIN7-mediated auxin efflux depending
    on NO3− levels. These results reveal a mechanism by which NRT2.1 in response to
    NO3− limitation directly regulates auxin transport activity and, thus, root growth.
    This adaptive mechanism contributes to the root developmental plasticity to help
    plants cope with changes in NO3− availability.

  text: "All visual experiences of the vertebrates begin with light being converted
    into electrical signals\r\nby the eye retina. Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are
    the neurons of the innermost layer of the\r\nmammal retina, and they transmit
    visual information to the rest of the brain.\r\nIt has been shown that RGCs vary
    in their morphology and genetic profiles, moreover they can\r\nbe unambiguously
    grouped into subtypes that share the same morphological and/or molecular\r\nproperties.
    However, in terms of RGCs function, it remains unclear how many distinct types\r\nthere
    are and what response properties their typology relies on. Even given the recent
    studies\r\nthat successfully classified RGCs in a patch of the retina [1] and
    in scotopic conditions [2], the\r\nquestion remains whether the found subtypes
    persist across the entire retina.\r\nIn this work, using a novel imaging method,
    we show that, when sampled from a large portion\r\nof the retina, RGCs can not
    be clearly divided into functional subtypes. We found that in\r\nphotopic conditions,
    which implies more prominent natural scene statistic differences across\r\nthe
    visual field, response properties can be exhibited by cells differently depending
    on their\r\nlocation in the retina, which leads to formation of a gradient of
    features rather than distinct\r\nclasses.\r\nThis finding suggests that RGCs follow
    a global organization across the visual field of the\r\nanimal, adapting each
    RGC subtype to the requirements imposed by the natural scene statistics."

  text: "During my Ph.D. research, I managed a series of projects, each focused on
    the\r\nmechanisms underlying cell migration. My work involved an in-depth examination
    of\r\nthe complex strategies employed by neutrophils, with a specific focus on
    their ability to\r\nsynchronize spatial-temporal cues and optimize their gradient
    perception. However, it\r\nis essential to acknowledge that not all projects yielded
    successful results, as some\r\nideas were discontinued and are archived for future
    reference within this thesis.\r\nMy main project investigated how neutrophils
    decode spatial cues for precise navigation. Human neutrophils showcased distinct
    movement patterns based on source\r\ntype – linear or point-like. By combining
    single-cell tracking in 3D environments with\r\nproxy dyes, this project linked
    cell behaviors to gradient changes, revealing a stronger\r\nresponse to semi-exponential
    gradients from point sources. In addition, neutrophils\r\nexhibited oscillating
    migration speeds, using speed minima to adjust trajectories toward sources. Experiencing
    continuous concentration changes, they accelerated over\r\ntime and employed a
    \"Run and Fumble\" strategy, alternating between consistent runs\r\nand strategic
    \"tumbles\" for efficient navigation.\r\nThe project extended to the possibility
    of cells amplifying perceived gradients by\r\nenclosing their immediate surroundings,
    pushing attractants forward for enrichment\r\nwhile depleting it at the cell rear.
    Microfluidic devices were employed, and various experimental parameters configurations
    were optimized. Although significant differences\r\nin migratory efficacy were
    detected across pore sizes and device heights, quantifying\r\ngradient manipulation
    effects proved challenging.\r\nThe \"Laser-Assisted Protein Adsorption by Photobleaching\"
    (LAPAP) project was\r\npromising, as it allowed the printing of gradients. Initially
    successful with dendritic cells,\r\nwe aimed to adapt it for neutrophils. Through
    extensive experimentation with multiple\r\nparameters, we attempted to trigger
    responses from neutrophils. Despite these efforts\r\nand collaboration, the project
    failed due to practical challenges and limitations.\r\nFacing a lack of neutrophil-like
    cells at IST, we initially established the SCF-HoxB8\r\nprimary murine cell line.
    Despite their existence, their migratory behavior was largely\r\nunexplored due
    to potential limitations. Through differentiation protocol refinements we\r\nenhanced
    their migratory capabilities, though their capacity still lagged behind human\r\nneutrophils.
    Despite this, the improved migration potential of these cells pointed toward\r\ntheir
    utility for in vitro murine neutrophil migration studies."

  text: As developing tissues grow in size and undergo morphogenetic changes, their
    material properties may be altered. Such changes result from tension dynamics
    at cell contacts or cellular jamming. Yet, in many cases, the cellular mechanisms
    controlling the physical state of growing tissues are unclear. We found that at
    early developmental stages, the epithelium in the developing mouse spinal cord
    maintains both high junctional tension and high fluidity. This is achieved via
    a mechanism in which interkinetic nuclear movements generate cell area dynamics
    that drive extensive cell rearrangements. Over time, the cell proliferation rate
    declines, effectively solidifying the tissue. Thus, unlike well-studied jamming
    transitions, the solidification uncovered here resembles a glass transition that
    depends on the dynamical stresses generated by proliferation and differentiation.
    Our finding that the fluidity of developing epithelia is linked to interkinetic
    nuclear movements and the dynamics of growth is likely to be relevant to multiple
    developing tissues.

  text: To navigate through diverse tissues, migrating cells must balance persistent
    self-propelled motion with adaptive behaviors to circumvent obstacles. We identify
    a curvature-sensing mechanism underlying obstacle evasion in immune-like cells.
    Specifically, we propose that actin polymerization at the advancing edge of migrating
    cells is inhibited by the curvature-sensitive BAR domain protein Snx33 in regions
    with inward plasma membrane curvature. The genetic perturbation of this machinery
    reduces the cells’ capacity to evade obstructions combined with faster and more
    persistent cell migration in obstacle-free environments. Our results show how
    cells can read out their surface topography and utilize actin and plasma membrane
    biophysics to interpret their environment, allowing them to adaptively decide
    if they should move ahead or turn away. On the basis of our findings, we propose
    that the natural diversity of BAR domain proteins may allow cells to tune their
    curvature sensing machinery to match the shape characteristics in their environment.

  text: During development, tissues undergo changes in size and shape to form functional
    organs. Distinct cellular processes such as cell division and cell rearrangements
    underlie tissue morphogenesis. Yet how the distinct processes are controlled and
    coordinated, and how they contribute to morphogenesis is poorly understood. In
    our study, we addressed these questions using the developing mouse neural tube.
    This epithelial organ transforms from a flat epithelial sheet to an epithelial
    tube while increasing in size and undergoing morpho-gen-mediated patterning. The
    extent and mechanism of neural progenitor rearrangement within the developing
    mouse neuroepithelium is unknown. To investigate this, we per-formed high resolution
    lineage tracing analysis to quantify the extent of epithelial rear-rangement at
    different stages of neural tube development. We quantitatively described the relationship
    between apical cell size with cell cycle dependent interkinetic nuclear migra-tions
    (IKNM) and performed high cellular resolution live imaging of the neuroepithelium
    to study the dynamics of junctional remodeling.  Furthermore, developed a vertex
    model of the neuroepithelium to investigate the quantitative contribution of cell
    proliferation, cell differentiation and mechanical properties to the epithelial
    rearrangement dynamics and validated the model predictions through functional
    experiments. Our analysis revealed that at early developmental stages, the apical
    cell area kinetics driven by IKNM induce high lev-els of cell rearrangements in
    a regime of high junctional tension and contractility. After E9.5, there is a
    sharp decline in the extent of cell rearrangements, suggesting that the epi-thelium
    transitions from a fluid-like to a solid-like state. We found that this transition
    is regulated by the growth rate of the tissue, rather than by changes in cell-cell
    adhesion and contractile forces. Overall, our study provides a quantitative description
    of the relationship between tissue growth, cell cycle dynamics, epithelia rearrangements
    and the emergent tissue material properties, and novel insights on how epithelial
    cell dynamics influences tissue morphogenesis.

  text: Morphogens are signaling molecules that are known for their prominent role
    in pattern formation within developing tissues. In addition to patterning, morphogens
    also control tissue growth. However, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood.
    We studied the role of morphogens in regulating tissue growth in the developing
    vertebrate neural tube. In this system, opposing morphogen gradients of Shh and
    BMP establish the dorsoventral pattern of neural progenitor domains. Perturbations
    in these morphogen pathways result in alterations in tissue growth and cell cycle
    progression, however, it has been unclear what cellular process is affected. To
    address this, we analysed the rates of cell proliferation and cell death in mouse
    mutants in which signaling is perturbed, as well as in chick neural plate explants
    exposed to defined concentrations of signaling activators or inhibitors. Our results
    indicated that the rate of cell proliferation was not altered in these assays.
    By contrast, both the Shh and BMP signaling pathways had profound effects on neural
    progenitor survival. Our results indicate that these pathways synergise to promote
    cell survival within neural progenitors. Consistent with this, we found that progenitors
    within the intermediate region of the neural tube, where the combined levels of
    Shh and BMP are the lowest, are most prone to cell death when signaling activity
    is inhibited. In addition, we found that downregulation of Shh results in increased
    apoptosis within the roof plate, which is the dorsal source of BMP ligand production.
    This revealed a cross-interaction between the Shh and BMP morphogen signaling
    pathways that may be relevant for understanding how gradients scale in neural
    tubes with different overall sizes. We further studied the mechanism acting downstream
    of Shh in cell survival regulation using genetic and genomic approaches. We propose
    that Shh transcriptionally regulates a non-canonical apoptotic pathway. Altogether,
    our study points to a novel role of opposing morphogen gradients in tissue size
    regulation and provides new insights into complex interactions between Shh and
    BMP signaling gradients in the neural tube.

  text: 'The evolutionary processes that brought about today’s plethora of living
    species and the many billions more ancient ones all underlie biology. Evolutionary
    pathways are neither directed nor deterministic, but rather an interplay between
    selection, migration, mutation, genetic drift and other environmental factors.
    Hybrid zones, as natural crossing experiments, offer a great opportunity to use
    cline analysis to deduce different evolutionary processes - for example, selection
    strength. Theoretical cline models, largely assuming uniform distribution of individuals,
    often lack the capability of incorporating population structure. Since in reality
    organisms mostly live in patchy distributions and their dispersal is hardly ever
    Gaussian, it is necessary to unravel the effect of these different elements of
    population structure on cline parameters and shape. In this thesis, I develop
    a simulation inspired by the A. majus hybrid zone of a single selected locus under
    frequency dependent selection. This simulation enables us to untangle the effects
    of different elements of population structure as for example a low-density center
    and long-range dispersal. This thesis is therefore a first step towards theoretically
    untangling the effects of different elements of population structure on cline
    parameters and shape. '

  text: Autoencoders are a popular model in many branches of machine learning and
    lossy data compression. However, their fundamental limits, the performance of
    gradient methods and the features learnt during optimization remain poorly understood,
    even in the two-layer setting. In fact, earlier work has considered either linear
    autoencoders or specific training regimes (leading to vanishing or diverging compression
    rates). Our paper addresses this gap by focusing on non-linear two-layer autoencoders
    trained in the challenging proportional regime in which the input dimension scales
    linearly with the size of the representation. Our results characterize the minimizers
    of the population risk, and show that such minimizers are achieved by gradient
    methods; their structure is also unveiled, thus leading to a concise description
    of the features obtained via training. For the special case of a sign activation
    function, our analysis establishes the fundamental limits for the lossy compression
    of Gaussian sources via (shallow) autoencoders. Finally, while the results are
    proved for Gaussian data, numerical simulations on standard datasets display the
    universality of the theoretical predictions.

  text: Arrays of Josephson junctions are governed by a competition between superconductivity
    and repulsive Coulomb interactions, and are expected to exhibit diverging low-temperature
    resistance when interactions exceed a critical level. Here we report a study of
    the transport and microwave response of Josephson arrays with interactions exceeding
    this level. Contrary to expectations, we observe that the array resistance drops
    dramatically as the temperature is decreased—reminiscent of superconducting behaviour—and
    then saturates at low temperature. Applying a magnetic field, we eventually observe
    a transition to a highly resistive regime. These observations can be understood
    within a theoretical picture that accounts for the effect of thermal fluctuations
    on the insulating phase. On the basis of the agreement between experiment and
    theory, we suggest that apparent superconductivity in our Josephson arrays arises
    from melting the zero-temperature insulator.

  text: Although much is known about how single neurons in the hippocampus represent
    an animal's position, how circuit interactions contribute to spatial coding is
    less well understood. Using a novel statistical estimator and theoretical modeling,
    both developed in the framework of maximum entropy models, we reveal highly structured
    CA1 cell-cell interactions in male rats during open field exploration. The statistics
    of these interactions depend on whether the animal is in a familiar or novel environment.
    In both conditions the circuit interactions optimize the encoding of spatial information,
    but for regimes that differ in the informativeness of their spatial inputs. This
    structure facilitates linear decodability, making the information easy to read
    out by downstream circuits. Overall, our findings suggest that the efficient coding
    hypothesis is not only applicable to individual neuron properties in the sensory
    periphery, but also to neural interactions in the central brain.

  text: 'Many insects carry an ancient X chromosome - the Drosophila Muller element
    F - that likely predates their origin. Interestingly, the X has undergone turnover
    in multiple fly species (Diptera) after being conserved for more than 450 MY.
    The long evolutionary distance between Diptera and other sequenced insect clades
    makes it difficult to infer what could have contributed to this sudden increase
    in rate of turnover. Here, we produce the first genome and transcriptome of a
    long overlooked sister-order to Diptera: Mecoptera. We compare the scorpionfly
    Panorpa cognata X-chromosome gene content, expression, and structure, to that
    of several dipteran species as well as more distantly-related insect orders (Orthoptera
    and Blattodea). We find high conservation of gene content between the mecopteran
    X and the dipteran Muller F element, as well as several shared biological features,
    such as the presence of dosage compensation and a low amount of genetic diversity,
    consistent with a low recombination rate. However, the two homologous X chromosomes
    differ strikingly in their size and number of genes they carry. Our results therefore
    support a common ancestry of the mecopteran and ancestral dipteran X chromosomes,
    and suggest that Muller element F shrank in size and gene content after the split
    of Diptera and Mecoptera, which may have contributed to its turnover in dipteran
    insects.'

  text: "Animals exhibit a remarkable ability to learn and remember new behaviors,
    skills, and associations throughout their lifetime. These capabilities are made
    possible thanks to a variety of\r\nchanges in the brain throughout adulthood,
    regrouped under the term \"plasticity\". Some cells\r\nin the brain —neurons—
    and specifically changes in the connections between neurons, the\r\nsynapses,
    were shown to be crucial for the formation, selection, and consolidation of memories\r\nfrom
    past experiences. These ongoing changes of synapses across time are called synaptic\r\nplasticity.
    Understanding how a myriad of biochemical processes operating at individual\r\nsynapses
    can somehow work in concert to give rise to meaningful changes in behavior is
    a\r\nfascinating problem and an active area of research.\r\nHowever, the experimental
    search for the precise plasticity mechanisms at play in the brain\r\nis daunting,
    as it is difficult to control and observe synapses during learning. Theoretical\r\napproaches
    have thus been the default method to probe the plasticity-behavior connection.
    Such\r\nstudies attempt to extract unifying principles across synapses and model
    all observed synaptic\r\nchanges using plasticity rules: equations that govern
    the evolution of synaptic strengths across\r\ntime in neuronal network models.
    These rules can use many relevant quantities to determine\r\nthe magnitude of
    synaptic changes, such as the precise timings of pre- and postsynaptic\r\naction
    potentials, the recent neuronal activity levels, the state of neighboring synapses,
    etc.\r\nHowever, analytical studies rely heavily on human intuition and are forced
    to make simplifying\r\nassumptions about plasticity rules.\r\nIn this thesis,
    we aim to assist and augment human intuition in this search for plasticity rules.\r\nWe
    explore whether a numerical approach could automatically discover the plasticity
    rules\r\nthat elicit desired behaviors in large networks of interconnected neurons.
    This approach is\r\ndubbed meta-learning synaptic plasticity: learning plasticity
    rules which themselves will make\r\nneuronal networks learn how to solve a desired
    task. We first write all the potential plasticity\r\nmechanisms to consider using
    a single expression with adjustable parameters. We then optimize\r\nthese plasticity
    parameters using evolutionary strategies or Bayesian inference on tasks known\r\nto
    involve synaptic plasticity, such as familiarity detection and network stabilization.\r\nWe
    show that these automated approaches are powerful tools, able to complement established\r\nanalytical
    methods. By comprehensively screening plasticity rules at all synapse types in\r\nrealistic,
    spiking neuronal network models, we discover entire sets of degenerate plausible\r\nplasticity
    rules that reliably elicit memory-related behaviors. Our approaches allow for
    more\r\nrobust experimental predictions, by abstracting out the idiosyncrasies
    of individual plasticity\r\nrules, and provide fresh insights on synaptic plasticity
    in spiking network models.\r\n"

  text: "Proper operation of electro-optic I/Q modulators relies on precise adjustment
    and control of the relative phase biases between the modulator’s internal interferometer
    arms. We present an all-analog phase bias locking scheme where error signals are
    obtained from the beat between the optical carrier and optical tones generated
    by an auxiliary 2 MHz \U0001D445\U0001D439 tone to lock the phases of all three
    involved interferometers for operation up to 10 GHz. With the developed method,
    we demonstrate an I/Q modulator in carrier-suppressed single-sideband mode, where
    the suppressed carrier and sideband are locked at optical power levels <−27dB\r\n
    relative to the transmitted sideband. We describe a simple analytical model for
    calculating the error signals and detail the implementation of the electronic
    circuitry for the implementation of the method."

  text: Statistics of natural scenes are not uniform - their structure varies dramatically
    from ground to sky. It remains unknown whether these non-uniformities are reflected
    in the large-scale organization of the early visual system and what benefits such
    adaptations would confer. Here, by relying on the efficient coding hypothesis,
    we predict that changes in the structure of receptive fields across visual space
    increase the efficiency of sensory coding. We show experimentally that, in agreement
    with our predictions, receptive fields of retinal ganglion cells change their
    shape along the dorsoventral retinal axis, with a marked surround asymmetry at
    the visual horizon. Our work demonstrates that, according to principles of efficient
    coding, the panoramic structure of natural scenes is exploited by the retina across
    space and cell-types.

  text: 'Statistics of natural scenes are not uniform - their structure varies dramatically
    from ground to sky. It remains unknown whether these non-uniformities are reflected
    in the large-scale organization of the early visual system and what benefits such
    adaptations would confer. Here, by relying on the efficient coding hypothesis,
    we predict that changes in the structure of receptive fields across visual space
    increase the efficiency of sensory coding. We show experimentally that, in agreement
    with our predictions, receptive fields of retinal ganglion cells change their
    shape along the dorsoventral retinal axis, with a marked surround asymmetry at
    the visual horizon. Our work demonstrates that, according to principles of efficient
    coding, the panoramic structure of natural scenes is exploited by the retina across
    space and cell-types. '

  text: Recent quantum technologies have established precise quantum control of various
    microscopic systems using electromagnetic waves. Interfaces based on cryogenic
    cavity electro-optic systems are particularly promising, due to the direct interaction
    between microwave and optical fields in the quantum regime. Quantum optical control
    of superconducting microwave circuits has been precluded so far due to the weak
    electro-optical coupling as well as quasi-particles induced by the pump laser.
    Here we report the coherent control of a superconducting microwave cavity using
    laser pulses in a multimode electro-optical device at millikelvin temperature
    with near-unity cooperativity. Both the stationary and instantaneous responses
    of the microwave and optical modes comply with the coherent electro-optical interaction,
    and reveal only minuscule amount of excess back-action with an unanticipated time
    delay. Our demonstration enables wide ranges of applications beyond quantum transductions,
    from squeezing and quantum non-demolition measurements of microwave fields, to
    entanglement generation and hybrid quantum networks.

  text: Immune responses rely on the rapid and coordinated migration of leukocytes.
    Whereas it is well established that single-cell migration is often guided by gradients
    of chemokines and other chemoattractants, it remains poorly understood how these
    gradients are generated, maintained, and modulated. By combining experimental
    data with theory on leukocyte chemotaxis guided by the G protein–coupled receptor
    (GPCR) CCR7, we demonstrate that in addition to its role as the sensory receptor
    that steers migration, CCR7 also acts as a generator and a modulator of chemotactic
    gradients. Upon exposure to the CCR7 ligand CCL19, dendritic cells (DCs) effectively
    internalize the receptor and ligand as part of the canonical GPCR desensitization
    response. We show that CCR7 internalization also acts as an effective sink for
    the chemoattractant, dynamically shaping the spatiotemporal distribution of the
    chemokine. This mechanism drives complex collective migration patterns, enabling
    DCs to create or sharpen chemotactic gradients. We further show that these self-generated
    gradients can sustain the long-range guidance of DCs, adapt collective migration
    patterns to the size and geometry of the environment, and provide a guidance cue
    for other comigrating cells. Such a dual role of CCR7 as a GPCR that both senses
    and consumes its ligand can thus provide a novel mode of cellular self-organization.
