El proper divendres 22 de setembre de 2023, a les 13.00h, l'Aula 14, Dolors Aleu i Riera del Campus Clínic, acollirà un nou seminari del Cicle Continuat de Conferències de la Facultat de Medicina i Ciències de la Salut organitzat per la Dra. Caroline Chloe Mauvezin.
El seminari porta per títol "Mechanisms of intracellular communication" i estarà a càrrec de la Dra. Anne Spang, PhD, Professor of Biochemistry Biozentrum, University of Basel..
Aquest seminari, esta adreçat a tot el PDI de la Facultat de Medicina i Ciències de la Salut i els diferents centres de recerca de Barcelona i no requereixen inscripció prèvia per poder assistir-hi.
A continuació trobareu una breu sinopsi dels temes que abordarà la Dra. Spang durant el seminari:
Cells need to communicate and interact with the environment. These interactions need to be facilitated through intracellular communication (iComm) pathways, which comprises biosynthetic and endocytic transport and signaling pathways. In recent years it became clear that besides the classical pathways, organellar contact sites and membrane-less organelles are likewise important players of the iComm. Moreover, technological advances allowed a more precise dissection of vesicular transport. We are interested in understanding how different cellular – membrane-bounded and membrane-less – organelles interact with each other, how signals are relayed and how mRNAs and proteins are localized correctly in space and time, and how cells adapt its iComm during perturbations such as stress or ageing. We use different experimental models such as S. cerevisiae, C. elegans and mammalian cells to gain understanding on single cells as well as on tissue and whole organism levels. The endosomal system is a particular interesting system to study iComm as signals from the plasma membrane converge with biosynthetic route and the information has to be processed correctly. Moreover, the connections between organelles of the biosynthetic route with more metabolic organelles continuous to provide new insights in iComm. There is still so much to learn – it is a really exciting time. I will discuss our latest findings on iComm.
Us hi esperem!
