Nanoscale 3D DNA tracing in single human cells visualizes loop extrusion directly in situ

K. S. Beckwith, O. Oedegaard Fougner, N. R. Morero, C. Barton, F. Schueder, W. Tang, S. Alexander, J.-M. Peters, R. Jungmann, E. Birney, J. Ellenberg

This study uses nanoscale 3D imaging to show that DNA folds as flexible coils without loop extruding enzymes, but forms reproducible loops with Cohesin and CTCF.

Plasma membrane damage causes NLRP3 activation and pyroptosis during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection

K. S. Beckwith, M. S. Beckwith, S. Ullmann, R. S. R. Saetra, H. Kim, A. Marstad, S. E. Asberg, T. A. Strand, H. Stenmark, T. H. Flo

This study identifies a novel mechanism where plasma membrane damage during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection triggers NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis and facilitates bacterial spread.
