Dsup, a tardigrade protein, extends the lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans by inhibiting mitochondrial respiration and enhancing resistance to oxidative stress. Tardigrades can survive extreme environments partly thanks to a protein called Dsup, which protects DNA from ionizing radiation and oxidative stress. Encoded by a unique tardigrade gene, the Dsup protein is largely unstructured but binds […]

The F17 team, led by Pierre Charnet, has been highlighted in the CNRS Journal for its work on the bee “channelome.” The article explains how his team characterized most of the genes encoding ion channels in bees. These channels are the targets of the main neurotoxic insecticides used in agriculture. The team studies the effects […]
Offre de stage de Master 2 Equipe Synthèse des lipides bioactifs (SLB) Résumé : Les dérivés lipoconjugués forment une famille de molécules caractérisées par un noyau central auquel sont fixées une ou plusieurs chaînes lipidiques. Ces composés attirent un intérêt croissant en recherche pharmaceutique, car ils présentent des propriétés variées notamment antioxydantes, immunomodulatrices et antibactériennes. […]
