--- _id: '7210' abstract: - lang: eng text: The rate of biological evolution depends on the fixation probability and on the fixation time of new mutants. Intensive research has focused on identifying population structures that augment the fixation probability of advantageous mutants. But these amplifiers of natural selection typically increase fixation time. Here we study population structures that achieve a tradeoff between fixation probability and time. First, we show that no amplifiers can have an asymptotically lower absorption time than the well-mixed population. Then we design population structures that substantially augment the fixation probability with just a minor increase in fixation time. Finally, we show that those structures enable higher effective rate of evolution than the well-mixed population provided that the rate of generating advantageous mutants is relatively low. Our work sheds light on how population structure affects the rate of evolution. Moreover, our structures could be useful for lab-based, medical, or industrial applications of evolutionary optimization. article_number: '138' article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Josef full_name: Tkadlec, Josef id: 3F24CCC8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Tkadlec orcid: 0000-0002-1097-9684 - first_name: Andreas full_name: Pavlogiannis, Andreas id: 49704004-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Pavlogiannis orcid: 0000-0002-8943-0722 - first_name: Krishnendu full_name: Chatterjee, Krishnendu id: 2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Chatterjee orcid: 0000-0002-4561-241X - first_name: Martin A. full_name: Nowak, Martin A. last_name: Nowak citation: ama: Tkadlec J, Pavlogiannis A, Chatterjee K, Nowak MA.

Constructing hash functions for which this transformation is sound is a central and long-standing open question in cryptography.\r\n\r\nWe show that solving the END−OF−METERED−LINE problem is no easier than breaking the soundness of the Fiat-Shamir transformation when applied to the sumcheck protocol. In particular, if the transformed protocol is sound, then any hard problem in #P gives rise to a hard distribution in the class CLS, which is contained in PPAD. Our result opens up the possibility of sampling moderately-sized games for which it is hard to find a Nash equilibrium, by reducing the inversion of appropriately chosen one-way functions to #SAT.\r\n\r\nOur main technical contribution is a stateful incrementally verifiable procedure that, given a SAT instance over n variables, counts the number of satisfying assignments. This is accomplished via an exponential sequence of small steps, each computable in time poly(n). Incremental verifiability means that each intermediate state includes a sumcheck-based proof of its correctness, and the proof can be updated and verified in time poly(n)." article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Arka Rai full_name: Choudhuri, Arka Rai last_name: Choudhuri - first_name: Pavel full_name: Hubáček, Pavel last_name: Hubáček - first_name: Chethan full_name: Kamath Hosdurg, Chethan id: 4BD3F30E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Kamath Hosdurg orcid: 0009-0006-6812-7317 - first_name: Krzysztof Z full_name: Pietrzak, Krzysztof Z id: 3E04A7AA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Pietrzak orcid: 0000-0002-9139-1654 - first_name: Alon full_name: Rosen, Alon last_name: Rosen - first_name: Guy N. full_name: Rothblum, Guy N. last_name: Rothblum citation: ama: 'Choudhuri AR, Hubáček P, Kamath Hosdurg C, Pietrzak KZ, Rosen A, Rothblum GN.

This Z-ring not only organizes the division machinery, but treadmilling of FtsZ filaments was also found to play a key role in distributing proteins at the division site. What regulates the architecture, dynamics and stability of the Z-ring is currently unknown, but FtsZ-associated proteins are known to play an important role. Here, using an in vitro reconstitution approach, we studied how the well-conserved protein ZapA affects FtsZ treadmilling and filament organization into large-scale patterns. Using high-resolution fluorescence microscopy and quantitative image analysis, we found that ZapA cooperatively increases the spatial order of the filament network, but binds only transiently to FtsZ filaments and has no effect on filament length and treadmilling velocity. Together, our data provides a model for how FtsZ-associated proteins can increase the precision and stability of the bacterial cell division machinery in a switch-like manner. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: LifeSc - _id: Bio article_number: '5744' article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Paulo R full_name: Dos Santos Caldas, Paulo R id: 38FCDB4C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Dos Santos Caldas orcid: 0000-0001-6730-4461 - first_name: Maria D full_name: Lopez Pelegrin, Maria D id: 319AA9CE-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Lopez Pelegrin - first_name: Daniel J.

Here, when subjected to strong enough perturbations, the flow becomes turbulent in spite of the laminar base flow being linearly stable. The nature of this instability has puzzled the scientific community for decades. At onset, turbulence appears in localized patches and flows are spatio-temporally intermittent. In pipe flow the localized turbulent structures are referred to as puffs and in planar flows like plane Couette and channel flow, patches arise in the form of localized oblique bands. In this thesis, we study the onset of turbulence in channel flow in direct numerical simulations from a dynamical system theory perspective, as well as by performing experiments in a large aspect ratio channel.\r\n\r\nThe aim of the experimental work is to determine the critical Reynolds number where turbulence first becomes sustained. Recently, the onset of turbulence has been described in analogy to absorbing state phase transition (i.e. directed percolation). In particular, it has been shown that the critical point can be estimated from the competition between spreading and decay processes. Here, by performing experiments, we identify the mechanisms underlying turbulence proliferation in channel flow and find the critical Reynolds number, above which turbulence becomes sustained. Above the critical point, the continuous growth at the tip of the stripes outweighs the stochastic shedding of turbulent patches at the tail and the stripes expand. For growing stripes, the probability to decay decreases while the probability of stripe splitting increases. Consequently, and unlike for the puffs in pipe flow, neither of these two processes is time-independent i.e. memoryless. Coupling between stripe expansion and creation of new stripes via splitting leads to a significantly lower critical point ($Re_c=670+/-10$) than most earlier studies suggest. \r\n\r\nWhile the above approach sheds light on how turbulence first becomes sustained, it provides no insight into the origin of the stripes themselves. In the numerical part of the thesis we investigate how turbulent stripes form from invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. The origin of these turbulent stripes can be identified by applying concepts from the dynamical system theory. In doing so, we identify the exact coherent structures underlying stripes and their bifurcations and how they give rise to the turbulent attractor in phase space. We first report a family of localized nonlinear traveling wave solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in channel flow. These solutions show structural similarities with turbulent stripes in experiments like obliqueness, quasi-streamwise streaks and vortices, etc. A parametric study of these traveling wave solution is performed, with parameters like Reynolds number, stripe tilt angle and domain size, including the stability of the solutions. These solutions emerge through saddle-node bifurcations and form a phase space skeleton for the turbulent stripes observed in the experiments. The lower branches of these TW solutions at different tilt angles undergo Hopf bifurcation and new solutions branches of relative periodic orbits emerge. These RPO solutions do not belong to the same family and therefore the routes to chaos for different angles are different. \r\n\r\nIn shear flows, turbulence at onset is transient in nature. \ Consequently,turbulence can not be tracked to lower Reynolds numbers, where the dynamics may simplify. Before this happens, turbulence becomes short-lived and laminarizes. In the last part of the thesis, we show that using numerical simulations we can continue turbulent stripes in channel flow past the 'relaminarization barrier' all the way to their origin. Here, turbulent stripe dynamics simplifies and the fluctuations are no longer stochastic and the stripe settles down to a relative periodic orbit. This relative periodic orbit originates from the aforementioned traveling wave solutions. Starting from the relative periodic orbit, a small increase in speed i.e. Reynolds number gives rise to chaos and the attractor dimension sharply increases in contrast to the classical transition scenario where the instabilities affect the flow globally and give rise to much more gradual route to turbulence." alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Chaitanya S full_name: Paranjape, Chaitanya S id: 3D85B7C4-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Paranjape citation: ama: Paranjape CS.

An important role in these processes play the phytohormones and among them, auxin is crucial as it controls many important functions. It is transported through the whole plant body by creating local and temporal concentration maxima and minima, which have an impact on the cell status, tissue and organ identity. Auxin has the property to undergo a directional and finely regulated cell-to-cell transport, which is enabled by the transport proteins, localized on the plasma membrane. An important role in this process have the PIN auxin efflux proteins, which have an asymmetric/polar subcellular localization and determine the directionality of the auxin transport. During the last years, there were significant advances in understanding how the trafficking molecular machineries function, including studies on molecular interactions, function, subcellular localization and intracellular distribution. However, there is still a lack of detailed characterization on the steps of endocytosis, exocytosis, endocytic recycling and degradation. Due to this fact, I focused on the identification of novel trafficking factors and better characterization of the intracellular trafficking pathways. My PhD thesis consists of an introductory chapter, three experimental chapters, a chapter containing general discussion, conclusions and perspectives and also an appendix chapter with published collaborative papers.\r\nThe first chapter is separated in two different parts: I start by a general introduction to auxin biology and then I introduce the trafficking pathways in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Then, I explain also the phosphorylation-signals for polar targeting and also the roles of the phytohormone strigolactone.\r\nThe second chapter includes the characterization of bar1/sacsin mutant, which was identified in a forward genetic screen for novel trafficking components in Arabidopsis thaliana, where by the implementation of an EMS-treated pPIN1::PIN1-GFP marker line and by using the established inhibitor of ARF-GEFs, Brefeldin A (BFA) as a tool to study trafficking processes, we identified a novel factor, which is mediating the adaptation of the plant cell to ARF-GEF inhibition. The mutation is in a previously uncharacterized gene, encoding a very big protein that we, based on its homologies, called SACSIN with domains suggesting roles as a molecular chaperon or as a component of the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Our physiology and imaging studies revealed that SACSIN is a crucial plant cell component of the adaptation to the ARF-GEF inhibition.\r\nThe third chapter includes six subchapters, where I focus on the role of the phytohormone strigolactone, which interferes with auxin feedback on PIN internalization. Strigolactone moderates the polar auxin transport by increasing the internalization of the PIN auxin efflux carriers, which reduces the canalization related growth responses. In addition, I also studied the role of phosphorylation in the strigolactone regulation of auxin feedback on PIN internalization. In this chapter I also present my results on the MAX2-dependence of strigolactone-mediated root growth inhibition and I also share my results on the auxin metabolomics profiling after application of GR24.\r\nIn the fourth chapter I studied the effect of two small molecules ES-9 and ES9-17, which were identified from a collection of small molecules with the property to impair the clathrin-mediated endocytosis.\r\nIn the fifth chapter, I discuss all my observations and experimental findings and suggest alternative hypothesis to interpret my results.\r\nIn the appendix there are three collaborative published projects. In the first, I participated in the characterization of the role of ES9 as a small molecule, which is inhibitor of clathrin- mediated endocytosis in different model organisms. In the second paper, I contributed to the characterization of another small molecule ES9-17, which is a non-protonophoric analog of ES9 and also impairs the clathrin-mediated endocytosis not only in plant cells, but also in mammalian HeLa cells. Last but not least, I also attach another paper, where I tried to establish the grafting method as a technique in our lab to study canalization related processes." acknowledged_ssus: - _id: LifeSc - _id: Bio alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Mina K full_name: Vasileva, Mina K id: 3407EB18-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Vasileva citation: ama: Vasileva MK.

However, this specificity is limited, leading to frequent incorrect binding of transcription factors that might have deleterious consequences on the cell. By constructing a biophysical model of TF-DNA binding in the context of gene regulation, I will first explore how regulatory constraints can strongly shape the distribution of a population in sequence space. Then, by directly linking this to a picture of multiple types of transcription factors performing their functions simultaneously inside the cell, I will explore the extent of regulatory crosstalk -- incorrect binding interactions between transcription factors and binding sites that lead to erroneous regulatory states -- and understand the constraints this places on the design of regulatory systems. I will then develop a generic theoretical framework to investigate the coevolution of multiple transcription factors and multiple binding sites, in the context of a gene regulatory network that performs a certain function. As a particular tractable version of this problem, I will consider the evolution of two transcription factors when they transmit upstream signals to downstream target genes. Specifically, I will describe the evolutionary steady states and the evolutionary pathways involved, along with their timescales, of a system that initially undergoes a transcription factor duplication event. To connect this important theoretical model to the prominent biological event of transcription factor duplication giving rise to paralogous families, I will then describe a bioinformatics analysis of C2H2 Zn-finger transcription factors, a major family in humans, and focus on the patterns of evolution that paralogs have undergone in their various protein domains in the recent past.

In contrast, although small molecules can acutely and reversibly perturb CME, the few chemical CME inhibitors that have been applied to plants are either ineffective or show undesirable side effects. Here, we identify the previously described endosidin9 (ES9) as an inhibitor of clathrin heavy chain (CHC) function in both Arabidopsis and human cells through affinity-based target isolation, in vitro binding studies and X-ray crystallography. Moreover, we present a chemically improved ES9 analog, ES9-17, which lacks the undesirable side effects of ES9 while retaining the ability to target CHC. ES9 and ES9-17 have expanded the chemical toolbox used to probe CHC function, and present chemical scaffolds for further design of more specific and potent CHC inhibitors across different systems. article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Wim full_name: Dejonghe, Wim last_name: Dejonghe - first_name: Isha full_name: Sharma, Isha last_name: Sharma - first_name: Bram full_name: Denoo, Bram last_name: Denoo - first_name: Steven full_name: De Munck, Steven last_name: De Munck - first_name: Qing full_name: Lu, Qing last_name: Lu - first_name: Kiril full_name: Mishev, Kiril last_name: Mishev - first_name: Haydar full_name: Bulut, Haydar last_name: Bulut - first_name: Evelien full_name: Mylle, Evelien last_name: Mylle - first_name: Riet full_name: De Rycke, Riet last_name: De Rycke - first_name: Mina K full_name: Vasileva, Mina K id: 3407EB18-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Vasileva - first_name: Daniel V. full_name: Savatin, Daniel V. last_name: Savatin - first_name: Wim full_name: Nerinckx, Wim last_name: Nerinckx - first_name: An full_name: Staes, An last_name: Staes - first_name: Andrzej full_name: Drozdzecki, Andrzej last_name: Drozdzecki - first_name: Dominique full_name: Audenaert, Dominique last_name: Audenaert - first_name: Klaas full_name: Yperman, Klaas last_name: Yperman - first_name: Annemieke full_name: Madder, Annemieke last_name: Madder - first_name: Jiří full_name: Friml, Jiří id: 4159519E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Friml orcid: 0000-0002-8302-7596 - first_name: Daniël full_name: Van Damme, Daniël last_name: Van Damme - first_name: Kris full_name: Gevaert, Kris last_name: Gevaert - first_name: Volker full_name: Haucke, Volker last_name: Haucke - first_name: Savvas N. full_name: Savvides, Savvas N. last_name: Savvides - first_name: Johan full_name: Winne, Johan last_name: Winne - first_name: Eugenia full_name: Russinova, Eugenia last_name: Russinova citation: ama: Dejonghe W, Sharma I, Denoo B, et al.

We prove universality of the local eigenvalue statistics and optimal local laws for the resolvent in the bulk and edge regime. The main novel tool is a systematic diagrammatic control of a multivariate cumulant expansion.\r\nIn the second part we consider Wigner-type matrices and show that at any cusp singularity of the limiting eigenvalue distribution the local eigenvalue statistics are uni- versal and form a Pearcey process. Since the density of states typically exhibits only square root or cubic root cusp singularities, our work complements previous results on the bulk and edge universality and it thus completes the resolution of the Wigner- Dyson-Mehta universality conjecture for the last remaining universality type. Our analysis holds not only for exact cusps, but approximate cusps as well, where an ex- tended Pearcey process emerges. As a main technical ingredient we prove an optimal local law at the cusp, and extend the fast relaxation to equilibrium of the Dyson Brow- nian motion to the cusp regime.\r\nIn the third and final part we explore the entrywise linear statistics of Wigner ma- trices and identify the fluctuations for a large class of test functions with little regularity. This enables us to study the rectangular Young diagram obtained from the interlacing eigenvalues of the random matrix and its minor, and we find that, despite having the same limit, the fluctuations differ from those of the algebraic Young tableaux equipped with the Plancharel measure." alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Dominik J full_name: Schröder, Dominik J id: 408ED176-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Schröder orcid: 0000-0002-2904-1856 citation: ama: 'Schröder DJ.

While the molecular signaling cascades are increasingly well\r\ndescribed, the mechanical signals affecting tissue shape changes have only recently been\r\nstudied in greater detail. To gain more insight into the mechanochemical and biophysical\r\nbasis of an epithelial spreading process (epiboly) in early zebrafish development, we studied\r\ncell-cell junction formation and actomyosin network dynamics at the boundary between\r\nsurface layer epithelial cells (EVL) and the yolk syncytial layer (YSL). During zebrafish epiboly,\r\nthe cell mass sitting on top of the yolk cell spreads to engulf the yolk cell by the end of\r\ngastrulation. It has been previously shown that an actomyosin ring residing within the YSL\r\npulls on the EVL tissue through a cable-constriction and a flow-friction motor, thereby\r\ndragging the tissue vegetal wards. Pulling forces are likely transmitted from the YSL\r\nactomyosin ring to EVL cells; however, the nature and formation of the junctional structure\r\nmediating this process has not been well described so far. Therefore, our main aim was to\r\ndetermine the nature, dynamics and potential function of the EVL-YSL junction during this\r\nepithelial tissue spreading. Specifically, we show that the EVL-YSL junction is a\r\nmechanosensitive structure, predominantly made of tight junction (TJ) proteins. The process\r\nof TJ mechanosensation depends on the retrograde flow of non-junctional, phase-separated\r\nZonula Occludens-1 (ZO-1) protein clusters towards the EVL-YSL boundary. Interestingly, we\r\ncould demonstrate that ZO-1 is present in a non-junctional pool on the surface of the yolk\r\ncell, and ZO-1 undergoes a phase separation process that likely renders the protein\r\nresponsive to flows. These flows are directed towards the junction and mediate proper\r\ntension-dependent recruitment of ZO-1. Upon reaching the EVL-YSL junction ZO-1 gets\r\nincorporated into the junctional pool mediated through its direct actin-binding domain.\r\nWhen the non-junctional pool and/or ZO-1 direct actin binding is absent, TJs fail in their\r\nproper mechanosensitive responses resulting in slower tissue spreading. We could further\r\ndemonstrate that depletion of ZO proteins within the YSL results in diminished actomyosin\r\nring formation. This suggests that a mechanochemical feedback loop is at work during\r\nzebrafish epiboly: ZO proteins help in proper actomyosin ring formation and actomyosin\r\ncontractility and flows positively influence ZO-1 junctional recruitment. Finally, such a\r\nmesoscale polarization process mediated through the flow of phase-separated protein\r\nclusters might have implications for other processes such as immunological synapse\r\nformation, C. elegans zygote polarization and wound healing." acknowledged_ssus: - _id: Bio - _id: LifeSc - _id: EM-Fac - _id: SSU alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Cornelia full_name: Schwayer, Cornelia id: 3436488C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Schwayer orcid: 0000-0001-5130-2226 citation: ama: Schwayer C.

Here, using a radial eight-arm maze, we examined how the combined demand on these memories influenced CA1 place cell assemblies while reference memories were partially updated. This was contrasted with control tasks requiring only working memory or the update of reference memory. Reference memory update led to the reward-directed place field shifts at newly rewarded arms and to the gradual strengthening of firing in passes between newly rewarded arms but not between those passes that included a familiar-rewarded arm. At the maze center, transient network synchronization periods preferentially replayed trajectories of the next chosen arm in reference memory tasks but the previously visited arm in the working memory task. Hence, reference memory demand was uniquely associated with a gradual, goal novelty-related reorganization of place cell assemblies and with trajectory replay that reflected the animal's decision of which arm to visit next. article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Haibing full_name: Xu, Haibing id: 310349D0-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Xu - first_name: Peter full_name: Baracskay, Peter id: 361CC00E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Baracskay - first_name: Joseph full_name: O'Neill, Joseph id: 426376DC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: O'Neill - first_name: Jozsef L full_name: Csicsvari, Jozsef L id: 3FA14672-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Csicsvari orcid: 0000-0002-5193-4036 citation: ama: Xu H, Baracskay P, O’Neill J, Csicsvari JL.

Assuming X is a stationary Poisson point process, we give explicit formulas for the expected number and total area of faces of a given dimension per unit volume of space. We also develop a relaxed version of discrete Morse theory and generalize by counting only faces, for which the k nearest points in X are within a given distance threshold." article_processing_charge: Yes (via OA deal) article_type: original arxiv: 1 author: - first_name: Herbert full_name: Edelsbrunner, Herbert id: 3FB178DA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Edelsbrunner orcid: 0000-0002-9823-6833 - first_name: Anton full_name: Nikitenko, Anton id: 3E4FF1BA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Nikitenko orcid: 0000-0002-0659-3201 citation: ama: Edelsbrunner H, Nikitenko A.
