--- _id: '14274' abstract: - lang: eng 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. acknowledgement: "We thank I. de Vries and the Scientific Service Units (Life Sciences, Bioimaging, Nanofabrication, Preclinical and Miba Machine Shop) of the Institute of Science and Technology Austria for excellent support, as well as all the rotation students assisting in the laboratory work (B.

We argue that the term should be defined based on the structure of the Ancestral Recombination Graph (ARG), which contains complete information on the ancestry of a sample. We use simulated examples to demonstrate key features of the relationship between haplotype blocks and ancestral structure, emphasizing the stochasticity of the processes that generate them. Even the simplest cases of neutrality or of a “hard” selective sweep produce a rich structure, often missed by commonly used statistics. We highlight a number of novel methods for inferring haplotype structure, based on the full ARG, or on a sequence of trees, and illustrate how they can be used to define haplotype blocks using an empirical data set. While the advent of new, computationally efficient methods makes it possible to apply these concepts broadly, they (and additional new methods) could benefit from adding features to explore haplotype blocks, as we define them. Understanding and applying the concept of the haplotype block will be essential to fully exploit long and linked-read sequencing technologies. acknowledgement: 'We thank the Barton group for useful discussion and feedback during the writing of this article.

CME\r\nrelies on the precise recruitment control of protein regulators for vesicle maturation and\r\nrelease. During the early stages of endocytosis, an area of flat membrane is remodelled by\r\nproteins to create a spherical vesicle against intracellular forces. After the Clathrin-coated\r\nvesicle (CCV) is fully formed, scission machinery releases it from the plasma membrane,\r\nand cargo proceeds for recycling or degradation through early endosomes / Trans Golgi\r\nnetwork. Protein machineries that mediate membrane bending and vesicle release in plants\r\nare unknown. However, studies show, that plant endocytosis is actin independent, thus\r\nindicating that plants utilize a unique mechanism to mediate membrane bending against highturgor pressure compared to other model systems. First, by using biochemical and advanced\r\nlive microscopy approaches we investigate the TPLATE complex, a plant-specific\r\nendocytosis protein complex. We found that TPLATE is peripherally associated with\r\nclathrin-coated vesicles and localises at the rim of endocytosis events. Next, our study of\r\nplant Dynamin-related protein 1C (DRP1C), which was hypothesised previously to play a\r\nrole in vesicle release, shows the recruitment of the protein already at the early stages of\r\nendocytosis. Moreover, DRP1C assembles into organised ring-like structures and is able to\r\ninduce membrane deformation and tubulation, suggesting its role also in membrane bending\r\nduring early CME. Based on the data from mammalian and yeast systems, plant DynaminRelated Proteins 2 and SH3P2 protein are strong candidates to be part of the plant vesicle\r\nscission machinery; however, their precise role in plant CME has not been yet elucidated.\r\nHere, we characterised DRP2s and SH3P2 roles in CME by combining high-resolution\r\nimaging of endocytic events in vivo and protein characterisation. Although DRP2s and\r\nSH3P2 arrive together during late CME and physically interact, genetic analysis using\r\n∆sh3p1,2,3 mutant and complementation with non-DRP2-interacting SH3P2 variants suggest\r\nthat SH3P2 does not directly recruit DRP2s to the site of endocytosis. Summarising our\r\nresearch, these observations provide new important insights into the mechanism of plant\r\nCME and show that, despite plants posses many homologues of mammalian and yeast CME\r\ncomponents, they do not necessarily act in the same manner.

CME relies on the precise recruitment of regulators for vesicle maturation and release. Homologues of components of mammalian vesicle scission are strong candidates to be part of the scissin machinery in plants, but the precise roles of these proteins in this process is not fully understood. Here, we characterised the roles of Plant Dynamin-Related Proteins 2 (DRP2s) and SH3-domain containing protein 2 (SH3P2), the plant homologue to Dynamins’ recruiters, like Endophilin and Amphiphysin, in the CME by combining high-resolution imaging of endocytic events in vivo and characterisation of the purified proteins in vitro. Although DRP2s and SH3P2 arrive similarly late during CME and physically interact, genetic analysis of the Dsh3p1,2,3 triple-mutant and complementation assays with non-SH3P2-interacting DRP2 variants suggests that SH3P2 does not directly recruit DRP2s to the site of endocytosis. These observations imply that despite the presence of many well-conserved endocytic components, plants have acquired a distinct mechanism for CME. One Sentence Summary In contrast to predictions based on mammalian systems, plant Dynamin-related proteins 2 are recruited to the site of Clathrin-mediated endocytosis independently of BAR-SH3 proteins. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: EM-Fac - _id: LifeSc - _id: Bio article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Nataliia full_name: Gnyliukh, Nataliia id: 390C1120-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Gnyliukh orcid: 0000-0002-2198-0509 - first_name: Alexander J full_name: Johnson, Alexander J id: 46A62C3A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Johnson orcid: 0000-0002-2739-8843 - first_name: Marie-Kristin full_name: Nagel, Marie-Kristin last_name: Nagel - first_name: Aline full_name: Monzer, Aline id: 2DB5D88C-D7B3-11E9-B8FD-7907E6697425 last_name: Monzer - first_name: Annamaria full_name: Hlavata, Annamaria id: 36062FEC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Hlavata - first_name: Erika full_name: Isono, Erika last_name: Isono - first_name: Martin full_name: Loose, Martin id: 462D4284-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Loose orcid: 0000-0001-7309-9724 - first_name: Jiří full_name: Friml, Jiří id: 4159519E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Friml orcid: 0000-0002-8302-7596 citation: ama: Gnyliukh N, Johnson AJ, Nagel M-K, et al.

Tunable directionality can be achieved by applying external magnetic fields that modify optical selection rules, by using nonlinear effects, or interactions with vibrations. However, these approaches are less suitable to control microwave photon propagation inside integrated superconducting quantum devices. Here, we demonstrate on-demand tunable directional scattering based on two periodically modulated transmon qubits coupled to a transmission line at a fixed distance. By changing the relative phase between the modulation tones, we realize unidirectional forward or backward photon scattering. Such an in-situ switchable mirror represents a versatile tool for intra- and inter-chip microwave photonic processors. In the future, a lattice of qubits can be used to realize topological circuits that exhibit strong nonreciprocity or chirality. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: M-Shop - _id: NanoFab acknowledgement: The authors thank W.D.

Our\r\nprimary focus lies on two particular types of VQAs: the Quantum Approximate Optimization\r\nAlgorithm (QAOA), used for solving binary optimization problems, and the Variational Quantum\r\nEigensolver (VQE), utilized for finding ground states of quantum many-body systems.\r\nIn the first part of the thesis, we examine the issue of effective parameter initialization for\r\nthe QAOA. The work demonstrates that random initialization of the QAOA often leads to\r\nconvergence in local minima with sub-optimal performance. To mitigate this issue, we propose\r\nan initialization of QAOA parameters based on the Trotterized Quantum Annealing (TQA).\r\nWe show that TQA initialization leads to the same performance as the best of an exponentially\r\nscaling number of random initializations.\r\nThe second study introduces Transition States (TS), stationary points with a single direction\r\nof descent, as a tool for systematically exploring the QAOA optimization landscape. This\r\nleads us to propose a novel greedy parameter initialization strategy that guarantees for the\r\nenergy to decrease with increasing number of circuit layers.\r\nIn the third section, we extend the QAOA to qudit systems, which are higher-dimensional\r\ngeneralizations of qubits. This chapter provides theoretical insights and practical strategies for\r\nleveraging the increased computational power of qudits in the context of quantum optimization\r\nalgorithms and suggests a quantum circuit for implementing the algorithm on an ion trap\r\nquantum computer.\r\nFinally, we propose an algorithm to avoid “barren plateaus”, regions in parameter space with\r\nvanishing gradients that obstruct efficient parameter optimization. This novel approach relies\r\non defining a notion of weak barren plateaus based on the entropies of local reduced density\r\nmatrices and showcases how these can be efficiently quantified using shadow tomography.\r\nTo illustrate the approach we employ the strategy in the VQE and show that it allows to\r\nsuccessfully avoid barren plateaus in the initialization and throughout the optimization.\r\nTaken together, this thesis greatly enhances our understanding of parameter initialization and\r\noptimization in VQAs, expands the scope of QAOA to higher-dimensional quantum systems,\r\nand presents a method to address the challenge of barren plateaus using the VQE. These\r\ninsights are instrumental in advancing the field of near-term quantum computation." alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Stefan full_name: Sack, Stefan id: dd622248-f6e0-11ea-865d-ce382a1c81a5 last_name: Sack orcid: 0000-0001-5400-8508 citation: ama: 'Sack S.

For a random initialization, the optimization typically leads to local minima with poor performance, motivating the search for initialization strategies of QAOA variational parameters. Although numerous heuristic initializations exist, an analytical understanding and performance guarantees for large p remain evasive.We introduce a greedy initialization of QAOA which guarantees improving performance with an increasing number of layers. Our main result is an analytic construction of 2p + 1 transition states—saddle points with a unique negative curvature direction—for QAOA with p + 1 layers that use the local minimum of QAOA with p layers. Transition states connect to new local minima, which are guaranteed to lower the energy compared to the minimum found for p layers. We use the GREEDY procedure to navigate the exponentially increasing with p number of local minima resulting from the recursive application of our analytic construction. The performance of the GREEDY procedure matches available initialization strategies while providing a guarantee for the minimal energy to decrease with an increasing number of layers p.

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. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: M-Shop - _id: NanoFab acknowledgement: We thank D.

This complex process requires coordination between the generation of cell mass and the morphogenetic mechanisms that sculpt tissues. These processes are regulated by morphogen signalling pathways and mechanical forces. Yet, in many systems, it is unclear how biochemical and mechanical signalling are quantitatively interpreted to determine the behaviours of individual cells and how they contribute to growth and morphogenesis at the tissue scale. In this review, we discuss the development of the vertebrate neural tube and somites as an example of the state of knowledge, as well as the challenges in understanding the mechanisms of tissue size control in vertebrate organogenesis. We highlight how the recent advances in stem cell differentiation and organoid approaches can be harnessed to provide new insights into this question. acknowledgement: 'We thank J.

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.' acknowledged_ssus: - _id: ScienComp acknowledgement: "We thank the Vicoso lab for their assistance with specimen collection, and Tim Connallon for valuable comments and suggestions on earlier versions of the manuscript.

The evolution of X chromosomes after they stop recombining in males, but before they become hemizygous, has not been well explored theoretically. We use the diffusion approximation to infer substitution rates of beneficial and deleterious mutations under such a scenario. Our results show that selection is less efficient on diploid X loci than on autosomal and hemizygous X loci under a wide range of parameters. This “slower-X” effect is stronger for genes affecting primarily (or only) male fitness, and for sexually antagonistic genes. These unusual dynamics suggest that some of the peculiar features of X chromosomes, such as the differential accumulation of genes with sex-specific functions, may start arising earlier than previously appreciated. acknowledgement: We thank the Vicoso and Barton groups and ISTA Scientific Computing Unit.

While recent theoretical studies and experiments in simpler, shear-driven flows suggest that the onset of turbulence is a directed percolation non-equilibrium phase transition, whether these findings are generic and apply also to open or pressure-driven flows is unknown. In pipe flow, the extremely long time scales near the transition make direct observations of critical behavior virtually impossible. Here, we circumvent these limitations by experimentally characterizing all pairwise interactions between localized patches of turbulence ("puffs"), and using these interactions as input to renormalization group and computer simulations of minimal models that extrapolate to long length and time scales. We show that the universality class of the transition is directed percolation, from which emerges a jammed phase of puffs above the critical point. The stronger interactions in the jamming regime enable us to explicitly measure the turbulent fraction and confirm model predictions. Our work shows that directed percolation scaling applies beyond simple closed shear flows, and underscores how statistical mechanics can lead to profound, quantitative and predictive insights on turbulent flows and their phases. article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Grégoire full_name: Lemoult, Grégoire last_name: Lemoult citation: ama: Lemoult G.

However, how they influence the normal functioning of synapses is largely unknown. In this study, we characterized the effects of pharmacological microglia depletion, achieved by administration of PLX5622, on hippocampal CA3-CA1 synapses of adult wild type mice. Following microglial depletion, we observed a reduction of spontaneous and evoked glutamatergic activity associated with a decrease of dendritic spine density. We also observed the appearance of immature synaptic features and higher levels of plasticity. Microglia depleted mice showed a deficit in the acquisition of the Novel Object Recognition task. These events were accompanied by hippocampal astrogliosis, although in the absence ofneuroinflammatory condition. PLX-induced synaptic changes were absent in Cx3cr1−/− mice, highlighting the role of CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis in microglia control of synaptic functioning. Remarkably, microglia repopulation after PLX5622 withdrawal was associated with the recovery of hippocampal synapses and learning functions. Altogether, these data demonstrate that microglia contribute to normal synaptic functioning in the adult brain and that their removal induces reversible changes in organization and activity of glutamatergic synapses. acknowledgement: The work was supported by a grant from MIUR (PRIN 2017HPTFFC_003) to Davide Ragozzino and in part by funds to Silvia Di Angelantonio (CrestOptics-IIT JointLab for Advanced Microscopy) and Daniele Caprioli (Istituto Pasteur-Fondazione Cenci Bolognetti).

In this paper, we investigate the impact of two forms of streaks on the instability of supersonic boundary layers. The first concerns the streaks generated by an array of spanwise periodic and streamwise elongated surface roughness elements, and our interest is how these streaks influence the lower-branch viscous first modes, whose characteristic wavelength and frequency are on the classical triple-deck scales. By adapting the triple-deck theory in the incompressible regime to the supersonic one, we first derived a simplified system which allows for efficient calculation of the streaks. The asymptotic analysis simplifies a bi-global eigenvalue problem to a one-dimensional problem in the spanwise direction, showing that the instability is controlled at leading order solely by the spanwise-dependent wall shear. In the fundamental configuration, the streaks stabilize first modes at low frequencies but destabilize the high-frequency ones. In the subharmonic configuration, the streaks generally destabilize the first mode across the entire frequency band. Importantly, the spanwise even modes are of radiating nature, i.e. they emit acoustic waves spontaneously to the far field. Streaks of the second form are generated by low-frequency vortical disturbances representing free-stream turbulence. They alter the flow in the entire layer and their effects on instability are investigated by solving the inviscid bi-global eigenvalue problem. Different from the incompressible case, a multitude of compressible instability modes exists, of which the dominant mode is an inviscid instability associated with the spanwise shear.

An important example is the mammalian inner cell mass, in which the primitive endoderm (PrE, founder of the yolk sac) physically segregates from the epiblast (EPI, founder of the fetus). While the molecular requirements have been well studied, the physical mechanisms determining spatial segregation between EPI and PrE remain elusive. Here, we investigate the mechanical basis of EPI and PrE sorting. We find that rather than the differences in static cell surface mechanical parameters as in classical sorting models, it is the differences in surface fluctuations that robustly ensure physical lineage sorting. These differential surface fluctuations systematically correlate with differential cellular fluidity, which we propose together constitute a non-equilibrium sorting mechanism for EPI and PrE lineages. By combining experiments and modeling, we identify cell surface dynamics as a key factor orchestrating the correct spatial segregation of the founder embryonic lineages. acknowledgement: We are grateful to H.

The mechanisms underpinning this cross-modal plasticity are poorly understood. We probe such mechanisms by performing a forward genetic screen for mutants with enhanced O2 perception in Caenorhabditis elegans. Multiple mutants exhibiting increased O2 responsiveness concomitantly show defects in other sensory responses. One mutant, qui-1, defective in a conserved NACHT/WD40 protein, abolishes pheromone-evoked Ca2+ responses in the ADL pheromone-sensing neurons. At the same time, ADL responsiveness to pre-synaptic input from O2-sensing neurons is heightened in qui-1, and other sensory defective mutants, resulting in enhanced neurosecretion although not increased Ca2+ responses. Expressing qui-1 selectively in ADL rescues both the qui-1 ADL neurosecretory phenotype and enhanced escape from 21% O2. Profiling ADL neurons in qui-1 mutants highlights extensive changes in gene expression, notably of many neuropeptide receptors. We show that elevated ADL expression of the conserved neuropeptide receptor NPR-22 is necessary for enhanced ADL neurosecretion in qui-1 mutants, and is sufficient to confer increased ADL neurosecretion in control animals. Sensory loss can thus confer cross-modal plasticity by changing the peptidergic connectome. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: Bio - _id: LifeSc - _id: ScienComp acknowledgement: "We would like to thank Gemma Chandratillake and Merav Cohen for identifying mutants and José David Moñino Sánchez for his help on neurosecretion assays.

A high resolution means longer image acquisition and larger data requirements for a given sample, but if the resolution is too low, significant information may be lost. This paper studies the impact of changes in resolution on persistent homology, a tool from topological data analysis that provides a signature of structure in an image across all length scales. Given prior information about a function, the geometry of an object, or its density distribution at a given resolution, we provide methods to select the coarsest resolution yielding results within an acceptable tolerance. We present numerical case studies for an illustrative synthetic example and samples from porous materials where the theoretical bounds are unknown. article_processing_charge: No arxiv: 1 author: - first_name: Teresa full_name: Heiss, Teresa id: 4879BB4E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Heiss orcid: 0000-0002-1780-2689 - first_name: Sarah full_name: Tymochko, Sarah last_name: Tymochko - first_name: Brittany full_name: Story, Brittany last_name: Story - first_name: Adélie full_name: Garin, Adélie last_name: Garin - first_name: Hoa full_name: Bui, Hoa last_name: Bui - first_name: Bea full_name: Bleile, Bea last_name: Bleile - first_name: Vanessa full_name: Robins, Vanessa last_name: Robins citation: ama: 'Heiss T, Tymochko S, Story B, et al.

The dual-mode sensor allows for discrimination of mass and charge contributions for binding assays on the same sensor surface. Furthermore, we optimize the sensor geometry by investigating the influence of the fiber area to transistor channel area ratio and distance. We show that larger fiber optic tip diameters are favorable for electronic and optical signals and demonstrate the reversibility of plasmon resonance wavelength shifts after electric field application. As a proof of principle, a layer-by-layer assembly of polyelectrolytes is performed to benchmark the system against multivariable sensing platforms with planar surface plasmon resonance configurations. Furthermore, the biosensing performance is assessed using a thrombin binding assay with surface-immobilized aptamers as receptors, allowing for the detection of medically relevant thrombin concentrations. acknowledgement: "This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 813863-\r\nBORGES.
