Authors Satija R, Das A, Mühle S, Enderlein J, Makarov DE Journal Journal of Physical Chemistry B Citation J Phys Chem B. 2020 Apr 30;124(17):3482-3493. Abstract We study intrachain dynamics of intrinsically disordered proteins, as manifested by the time scales of loop formation, using atomistic simulations, experiment-parametrized coarse-grained models, and

Authors Zimmermann WH Journal Current Opinion in Physiology Citation Current Opinion in Physiology 2020, 14:70–77. Abstract The lack of regenerative therapies for the treatment of degenerative diseases, such as heart failure, motivates the search for cell therapeutics. From a technical point of view, cell-based heart repair is approached from two

Abstract DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are highly toxic DNA lesions that can

Authors Joppe K, Nicolas JD, Grünewald TA, Eckermann M, Salditt T, Lingor P Journal Biomedical Optics Express Citation Biomed. Opt. Express. 2020 11(4). Abstract In this work we use scanning X-ray microscopy to study the structure and elemental composition of neuromelanin-positive neurons in substantia nigra tissue of Parkinson patients (PD) and controls.

Abstract Purpose: We present a phase-contrast x-ray tomography study of wild type C57BL/6 mouse hearts as a nondestructive approach to the microanatomy on the scale of the

Authors Staudt T, Aspelmeier T, Laitenberger O, Geisler C, Egner A, Munk A Journal Statistical Science Citation Statist. Sci., Volume 35, Number 1 (2020), 92-111. Abstract Super-resolution microscopy is rapidly gaining importance as an analytical tool in the life sciences. A compelling feature is the ability to label biological units

Authors Vinçon B, Geisler C, Egner A Journal Optics Express Citation Opt. Express 28, 4516-4528 (2020). Abstract The achievable image quality in fluorescence microscopy and nanoscopy is usually limited by photobleaching. Reducing the light dose imposed on the sample is thus a challenge for all these imaging techniques. Various approaches
