13-P010 Auxin in the control of the development of the brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus

چکیده
cate that Shh signalling controls Laminin gene expression, a critical step in the formation of the myotomal basement membrane, and that Laminin-111 has specific and essential role in myotomal basement membrane assembly. Together, our data reveal a novel role for Shh signalling in the control of basement membrane assembly and provide a framework for understanding the complex interactions between extra-cellular matrix and intercellular signalling.

Auxin metabolism and function in the multicellular brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus.
Ectocarpus siliculosus is a small brown alga that has recently been developed as a genetic model. Its thallus is filamentous, initially organized as a main primary filament composed of elongated cells and round cells, from which branches differentiate. Modeling of its early development suggests the involvement of very local positional information mediated by cell-cell recognition. However, this...
متن کاملLaser capture microdissection in Ectocarpus siliculosus: the pathway to cell-specific transcriptomics in brown algae
Laser capture microdissection (LCM) facilitates the isolation of individual cells from tissue sections, and when combined with RNA amplification techniques, it is an extremely powerful tool for examining genome-wide expression profiles in specific cell-types. LCM has been widely used to address various biological questions in both animal and plant systems, however, no attempt has been made so f...
متن کاملETOILE regulates developmental patterning in the filamentous brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus.
Brown algae are multicellular marine organisms evolutionarily distant from both metazoans and land plants. The molecular or cellular mechanisms that govern the developmental patterning in brown algae are poorly characterized. Here, we report the first morphogenetic mutant, étoile (etl), produced in the brown algal model Ectocarpus siliculosus. Genetic, cellular, and morphometric analyses showed...
متن کاملMorphoelasticity in the development of brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus: from cell rounding to branching
A biomechanical model is proposed for the growth of the brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus Featuring ramified uniseriate filaments, this alga has two modes of growth: apical growth and intercalary growth with branching. Apical growth occurs upon the mitosis of a young cell at one extremity and leads to a new tip cell followed by a cylindrical cell, whereas branching mainly occurs when a cylindri...
متن کاملComputational prediction and experimental validation of microRNAs in the brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus
We used an in silico approach to predict microRNAs (miRNAs) genome-wide in the brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus. As brown algae are phylogenetically distant from both animals and land plants, our approach relied on features shared by all known organisms, excluding sequence conservation, genome localization and pattern of base-pairing with the target. We predicted between 500 and 1500 miRNAs ca...
