  text: In recent years, the nuclear pore complex (NPC) has emerged as a key player
    in genome regulation and cellular homeostasis. New discoveries have revealed that
    the NPC has multiple cellular functions besides mediating the molecular exchange
    between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. In this review, we discuss non-transport
    aspects of the NPC focusing on the NPC-genome interaction, the extreme longevity
    of the NPC proteins, and NPC dysfunction in age-related diseases. The examples
    summarized herein demonstrate that the NPC, which first evolved to enable the
    biochemical communication between the nucleus and the cytoplasm, now doubles as
    the gatekeeper of cellular identity and aging.

  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: Aging of the circulatory system correlates with the pathogenesis of a large
    spectrum of diseases. However, it is largely unknown which factors drive the age-dependent
    or pathological decline of the vasculature and how vascular defects relate to
    tissue aging. The goal of the study is to design a multianalytical approach to
    identify how the cellular microenvironment (i.e., fibroblasts) and serum from
    healthy donors of different ages or Alzheimer disease (AD) patients can modulate
    the functionality of organ-specific vascular endothelial cells (VECs). Long-living
    human microvascular networks embedding VECs and fibroblasts from skin biopsies
    are generated. RNA-seq, secretome analyses, and microfluidic assays demonstrate
    that fibroblasts from young donors restore the functionality of aged endothelial
    cells, an effect also achieved by serum from young donors. New biomarkers of vascular
    aging are validated in human biopsies and it is shown that young serum induces
    angiopoietin-like-4, which can restore compromised vascular barriers. This strategy
    is then employed to characterize transcriptional/functional changes induced on
    the blood–brain barrier by AD serum, demonstrating the importance of PTP4A3 in
    the regulation of permeability. Features of vascular degeneration during aging
    and AD are recapitulated, and a tool to identify novel biomarkers that can be
    exploited to develop future therapeutics modulating vascular function is established.

  text: During mitosis, transcription of genomic DNA is dramatically reduced, before
    it is reactivated during nuclear reformation in anaphase/telophase. Many aspects
    of the underlying principles that mediate transcriptional memory and reactivation
    in the daughter cells remain unclear. Here, we used ChIP-seq on synchronized cells
    at different stages after mitosis to generate genome-wide maps of histone modifications.
    Combined with EU-RNA-seq and Hi-C analyses, we found that during prometaphase,
    promoters, enhancers, and insulators retain H3K4me3 and H3K4me1, while losing
    H3K27ac. Enhancers globally retaining mitotic H3K4me1 or locally retaining mitotic
    H3K27ac are associated with cell type-specific genes and their transcription factors
    for rapid transcriptional activation. As cells exit mitosis, promoters regain
    H3K27ac, which correlates with transcriptional reactivation. Insulators also gain
    H3K27ac and CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) in anaphase/telophase. This increase of
    H3K27ac in anaphase/telophase is required for posttranscriptional activation and
    may play a role in the establishment of topologically associating domains (TADs).
    Together, our results suggest that the genome is reorganized in a sequential order,
    in which histone methylations occur first in prometaphase, histone acetylation,
    and CTCF in anaphase/telophase, transcription in cytokinesis, and long-range chromatin
    interactions in early G1. We thus provide insights into the histone modification
    landscape that allows faithful reestablishment of the transcriptional program
    and TADs during cell division.

  text: Nucleoporin 93 (Nup93) expression inversely correlates with the survival of
    triple-negative breast cancer patients. However, our knowledge of Nup93 function
    in breast cancer besides its role as structural component of the nuclear pore
    complex is not understood. Combination of functional assays and genetic analyses
    suggested that chromatin interaction of Nup93 partially modulates the expression
    of genes associated with actin cytoskeleton remodeling and epithelial to mesenchymal
    transition, resulting in impaired invasion of triple-negative, claudin-low breast
    cancer cells. Nup93 depletion induced stress fiber formation associated with reduced
    cell migration/proliferation and impaired expression of mesenchymal-like genes.
    Silencing LIMCH1, a gene responsible for actin cytoskeleton remodeling and up-regulated
    upon Nup93 depletion, partially restored the invasive phenotype of cancer cells.
    Loss of Nup93 led to significant defects in tumor establishment/propagation in
    vivo, whereas patient samples revealed that high Nup93 and low LIMCH1 expression
    correlate with late tumor stage. Our approach identified Nup93 as contributor
    of triple-negative, claudin-low breast cancer cell invasion and paves the way
    to study the role of nuclear envelope proteins during breast cancer tumorigenesis.

  text: Biological membranes can dramatically accelerate the aggregation of normally
    soluble protein molecules into amyloid fibrils and alter the fibril morphologies,
    yet the molecular mechanisms through which this accelerated nucleation takes place
    are not yet understood. Here, we develop a coarse-grained model to systematically
    explore the effect that the structural properties of the lipid membrane and the
    nature of protein–membrane interactions have on the nucleation rates of amyloid
    fibrils. We identify two physically distinct nucleation pathways—protein-rich
    and lipid-rich—and quantify how the membrane fluidity and protein–membrane affinity
    control the relative importance of those molecular pathways. We find that the
    membrane’s susceptibility to reshaping and being incorporated into the fibrillar
    aggregates is a key determinant of its ability to promote protein aggregation.
    We then characterize the rates and the free-energy profile associated with this
    heterogeneous nucleation process, in which the surface itself participates in
    the aggregate structure. Finally, we compare quantitatively our data to experiments
    on membrane-catalyzed amyloid aggregation of α-synuclein, a protein implicated
    in Parkinson’s disease that predominately nucleates on membranes. More generally,
    our results provide a framework for understanding macromolecular aggregation on
    lipid membranes in a broad biological and biotechnological context.

  text: Tracing the motion of macromolecules, viruses, and nanoparticles adsorbed
    onto cell membranes is currently the most direct way of probing the complex dynamic
    interactions behind vital biological processes, including cell signalling, trafficking,
    and viral infection. The resulting trajectories are usually consistent with some
    type of anomalous diffusion, but the molecular origins behind the observed anomalous
    behaviour are usually not obvious. Here we use coarse-grained molecular dynamics
    simulations to help identify the physical mechanisms that can give rise to experimentally
    observed trajectories of nanoscopic objects moving on biological membranes. We
    find that diffusion on membranes of high fluidities typically results in normal
    diffusion of the adsorbed nanoparticle, irrespective of the concentration of receptors,
    receptor clustering, or multivalent interactions between the particle and membrane
    receptors. Gel-like membranes on the other hand result in anomalous diffusion
    of the particle, which becomes more pronounced at higher receptor concentrations.
    This anomalous diffusion is characterised by local particle trapping in the regions
    of high receptor concentrations and fast hopping between such regions. The normal
    diffusion is recovered in the limit where the gel membrane is saturated with receptors.
    We conclude that hindered receptor diffusivity can be a common reason behind the
    observed anomalous diffusion of viruses, vesicles, and nanoparticles adsorbed
    on cell and model membranes. Our results enable direct comparison with experiments
    and offer a new route for interpreting motility experiments on cell membranes.

  text: The blood-brain barrier is made of polarized brain endothelial cells (BECs)
    phenotypically conditioned by the central nervous system (CNS). Although transport
    across BECs is of paramount importance for nutrient uptake as well as ridding
    the brain of waste products, the intracellular sorting mechanisms that regulate
    successful receptor-mediated transcytosis in BECs remain to be elucidated. Here,
    we used a synthetic multivalent system with tunable avidity to the low-density
    lipoprotein receptor–related protein 1 (LRP1) to investigate the mechanisms of
    transport across BECs. We used a combination of conventional and super-resolution
    microscopy, both in vivo and in vitro, accompanied with biophysical modeling of
    transport kinetics and membrane-bound interactions to elucidate the role of membrane-sculpting
    protein syndapin-2 on fast transport via tubule formation. We show that high-avidity
    cargo biases the LRP1 toward internalization associated with fast degradation,
    while mid-avidity augments the formation of syndapin-2 tubular carriers promoting
    a fast shuttling across.

  text: In this study, we investigate the role of the surface patterning of nanostructures
    for cell membrane reshaping. To accomplish this, we combine an evolutionary algorithm
    with coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations and explore the solution space
    of ligand patterns on a nanoparticle that promote efficient and reliable cell
    uptake. Surprisingly, we find that in the regime of low ligand number the best-performing
    structures are characterized by ligands arranged into long one-dimensional chains
    that pattern the surface of the particle. We show that these chains of ligands
    provide particles with high rotational freedom and they lower the free energy
    barrier for membrane crossing. Our approach reveals a set of nonintuitive design
    rules that can be used to inform artificial nanoparticle construction and the
    search for inhibitors of viral entry.

  text: One of the most robust examples of self-assembly in living organisms is the
    formation of collagen architectures. Collagen type I molecules are a crucial component
    of the extracellular matrix, where they self-assemble into fibrils of well-defined
    axial striped patterns. This striped fibrillar pattern is preserved across the
    animal kingdom and is important for the determination of cell phenotype, cell
    adhesion, and tissue regulation and signaling. The understanding of the physical
    processes that determine such a robust morphology of self-assembled collagen fibrils
    is currently almost completely missing. Here, we develop a minimal coarse-grained
    computational model to identify the physical principles of the assembly of collagen-mimetic
    molecules. We find that screened electrostatic interactions can drive the formation
    of collagen-like filaments of well-defined striped morphologies. The fibril axial
    pattern is determined solely by the distribution of charges on the molecule and
    is robust to the changes in protein concentration, monomer rigidity, and environmental
    conditions. We show that the striped fibrillar pattern cannot be easily predicted
    from the interactions between two monomers but is an emergent result of multibody
    interactions. Our results can help address collagen remodeling in diseases and
    aging and guide the design of collagen scaffolds for biotechnological applications.

  text: Understanding the mechanism of action of compounds capable of inhibiting amyloid-fibril
    formation is critical to the development of potential therapeutics against protein-misfolding
    diseases. A fundamental challenge for progress is the range of possible target
    species and the disparate timescales involved, since the aggregating proteins
    are simultaneously the reactants, products, intermediates, and catalysts of the
    reaction. It is a complex problem, therefore, to choose the states of the aggregating
    proteins that should be bound by the compounds to achieve the most potent inhibition.
    We present here a comprehensive kinetic theory of amyloid-aggregation inhibition
    that reveals the fundamental thermodynamic and kinetic signatures characterizing
    effective inhibitors by identifying quantitative relationships between the aggregation
    and binding rate constants. These results provide general physical laws to guide
    the design and optimization of inhibitors of amyloid-fibril formation, revealing
    in particular the important role of on-rates in the binding of the inhibitors.

  text: The endosomal sorting complex required for transport-III (ESCRT-III) catalyzes
    membrane fission from within membrane necks, a process that is essential for many
    cellular functions, from cell division to lysosome degradation and autophagy.
    How it breaks membranes, though, remains unknown. Here, we characterize a sequential
    polymerization of ESCRT-III subunits that, driven by a recruitment cascade and
    by continuous subunit-turnover powered by the ATPase Vps4, induces membrane deformation
    and fission. During this process, the exchange of Vps24 for Did2 induces a tilt
    in the polymer-membrane interface, which triggers transition from flat spiral
    polymers to helical filament to drive the formation of membrane protrusions, and
    ends with the formation of a highly constricted Did2-Ist1 co-polymer that we show
    is competent to promote fission when bound on the inside of membrane necks. Overall,
    our results suggest a mechanism of stepwise changes in ESCRT-III filament structure
    and mechanical properties via exchange of the filament subunits to catalyze ESCRT-III
    activity.

  text: Sulfolobus acidocaldarius is the closest experimentally tractable archaeal
    relative of eukaryotes and, despite lacking obvious cyclin-dependent kinase and
    cyclin homologs, has an ordered eukaryote-like cell cycle with distinct phases
    of DNA replication and division. Here, in exploring the mechanism of cell division
    in S. acidocaldarius, we identify a role for the archaeal proteasome in regulating
    the transition from the end of one cell cycle to the beginning of the next. Further,
    we identify the archaeal ESCRT-III homolog, CdvB, as a key target of the proteasome
    and show that its degradation triggers division by allowing constriction of the
    CdvB1:CdvB2 ESCRT-III division ring. These findings offer a minimal mechanism
    for ESCRT-III–mediated membrane remodeling and point to a conserved role for the
    proteasome in eukaryotic and archaeal cell cycle control.

  text: The misfolding and aberrant aggregation of proteins into fibrillar structures
    is a key factor in some of the most prevalent human diseases, including diabetes
    and dementia. Low molecular weight oligomers are thought to be a central factor
    in the pathology of these diseases, as well as critical intermediates in the fibril
    formation process, and as such have received much recent attention. Moreover,
    on-pathway oligomeric intermediates are potential targets for therapeutic strategies
    aimed at interrupting the fibril formation process. However, a consistent framework
    for distinguishing on-pathway from off-pathway oligomers has hitherto been lacking
    and, in particular, no consensus definition of on- and off-pathway oligomers is
    available. In this paper, we argue that a non-binary definition of oligomers'
    contribution to fibril-forming pathways may be more informative and we suggest
    a quantitative framework, in which each oligomeric species is assigned a value
    between 0 and 1 describing its relative contribution to the formation of fibrils.
    First, we clarify the distinction between oligomers and fibrils, and then we use
    the formalism of reaction networks to develop a general definition for on-pathway
    oligomers, that yields meaningful classifications in the context of amyloid formation.
    By applying these concepts to Monte Carlo simulations of a minimal aggregating
    system, and by revisiting several previous studies of amyloid oligomers in light
    of our new framework, we demonstrate how to perform these classifications in practice.
    For each oligomeric species we obtain the degree to which it is on-pathway, highlighting
    the most effective pharmaceutical targets for the inhibition of amyloid fibril
    formation.

  text: Oligomeric species populated during the aggregation of the Aβ42 peptide have
    been identified as potent cytotoxins linked to Alzheimer’s disease, but the fundamental
    molecular pathways that control their dynamics have yet to be elucidated. By developing
    a general approach that combines theory, experiment and simulation, we reveal,
    in molecular detail, the mechanisms of Aβ42 oligomer dynamics during amyloid fibril
    formation. Even though all mature amyloid fibrils must originate as oligomers,
    we found that most Aβ42 oligomers dissociate into their monomeric precursors without
    forming new fibrils. Only a minority of oligomers converts into fibrillar structures.
    Moreover, the heterogeneous ensemble of oligomeric species interconverts on timescales
    comparable to those of aggregation. Our results identify fundamentally new steps
    that could be targeted by therapeutic interventions designed to combat protein
    misfolding diseases.

  text: In the nuclear pore complex, intrinsically disordered nuclear pore proteins
    (FG Nups) form a selective barrier for transport into and out of the cell nucleus,
    in a way that remains poorly understood. The collective FG Nup behavior has long
    been conceptualized either as a polymer brush, dominated by entropic and excluded-volume
    (repulsive) interactions, or as a hydrogel, dominated by cohesive (attractive)
    interactions between FG Nups. Here we compare mesoscale computational simulations
    with a wide range of experimental data to demonstrate that FG Nups are at the
    crossover point between these two regimes. Specifically, we find that repulsive
    and attractive interactions are balanced, resulting in morphologies and dynamics
    that are close to those of ideal polymer chains. We demonstrate that this property
    of FG Nups yields sufficient cohesion to seal the transport barrier, and yet maintains
    fast dynamics at the molecular scale, permitting the rapid polymer rearrangements
    needed for transport events.

  text: Experiments have suggested that bacterial mechanosensitive channels separate
    into 2D clusters, the role of which is unclear. By developing a coarse-grained
    computer model we find that clustering promotes the channel closure, which is
    highly dependent on the channel concentration and membrane stress. This behaviour
    yields a tightly regulated gating system, whereby at high tensions channels gate
    individually, and at lower tensions the channels spontaneously aggregate and inactivate.
    We implement this positive feedback into the model for cell volume regulation,
    and find that the channel clustering protects the cell against excessive loss
    of cytoplasmic content.

  text: Helically folded aromatic oligoamide foldamers have a size and geometrical
    parameters very distinct from those of α‐helices and are not obvious candidates
    for α‐helix mimicry. Nevertheless, they offer multiple sites for attaching side
    chains. It was found that some arrays of side chains at the surface of an aromatic
    helix make it possible to mimic extended α‐helical surfaces. Synthetic methods
    were developed to produce quinoline monomers suitably functionalized for solid
    phase synthesis. A dodecamer was prepared. Its crystal structure validated the
    initial design and showed helix bundling involving the α‐helix‐like interface.
    These results open up new uses of aromatic helices to recognize protein surfaces
    and to program helix bundling in water.
