    Pour la deuxième année consécutive, me voici à New York, pour assister à Tools of change for publishing (TOC), la grand-messe sur l'édition et sur l'édition électronique. Je tente de bloguer en direct les conférences les plus marquantes. Nous avons eu droit à une keynote de Peter Collingridge, qu'Hubert Guillaud, mon voisin de table, a synthétisée. La présentation publicitaire d'Enhanced-editions est assez éclairante sur la façon dont le conférencier conçoit ce qui est bien le successeur d..

    Compartmentalized Calcium Signaling in Cilia Regulates Intraflagellar Transport

    No full text
    Intraflagellar transport (IFT) underpins many of the important cellular roles of cilia and flagella in signaling and motility [1,2,3,4]. The microtubule motors kinesin-2 and cytoplasmic dynein 1b drive IFT particles (protein complexes carrying ciliary component proteins) along the axoneme to facilitate the assembly and maintenance of cilia. IFT is regulated primarily by cargo loading onto the IFT particles, although evidence suggests that IFT particles also exhibit differential rates of movement [5,6,7]. Here we demonstrate that intraflagellar Ca2+ elevations act to directly regulate the movement of IFT particles. IFT-driven movement of adherent flagella membrane glycoproteins in the model alga Chlamydomonas enables flagella-mediated gliding motility [8,9,10]. We find that surface contact promotes the localized accumulation of IFT particles in Chlamydomonas flagella. Highly compartmentalized intraflagellar Ca2+ elevations initiate retrograde transport of paused IFT particles to modulate their accumulation. Gliding motility induces mechanosensitive intraflagellar Ca2+ elevations in trailing (dragging) flagella only, acting to specifically clear the accumulated microtubule motors from individual flagella and prevent a futile tug-of-war. Our results demonstrate that compartmentalized intraciliary Ca2+ signaling can regulate the movement of IFT particles and is therefore likely to play a central role in directing the movement and distribution of many ciliary proteins

    Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel

    No full text
    For close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

    Ca <sup>2+</sup> elevations disrupt interactions between intraflagellar transport and the flagella membrane in <i>Chlamydomonas</i>

    No full text
    The movement of ciliary membrane proteins is directed by transient interactions with intraflagellar transport (IFT) trains. The green alga Chlamydomonas has adapted this process for gliding motility, using retrograde IFT motors to move adhesive glycoproteins in the flagella membrane. Ca 2+signalling contributes directly to the gliding process, although uncertainty remains over the mechanism through which it acts. Here, we show that flagella Ca 2+elevations initiate the movement of paused retrograde IFT trains, which accumulate at the distal end of adherent flagella, but do not influence other IFT processes. On highly adherent surfaces, flagella exhibit highfrequency Ca 2+elevations that prevent the accumulation of paused retrograde IFT trains. Flagella Ca 2+elevations disrupt the IFTdependent movement of microspheres along the flagella membrane, suggesting that Ca 2+acts by directly disrupting an interaction between retrograde IFT trains and flagella membrane glycoproteins. By regulating the extent to which glycoproteins on the flagella surface interact with IFT motor proteins on the axoneme, this signalling mechanism allows precise control of traction force and gliding motility in adherent flagella. </p
