“The Mechanism of Dynein Motility”
Feb 26, 2019 at 12:00pm - NSB Auditorium 1205
Hosted by Mounir Fizari
My laboratory studies the mechanism of cytoplasmic dynein, a AAA motor responsible for minus-end-directed motility along microtubules. Using single-molecule imaging and force spectroscopy in vitro, we showed that dynein has distinct features from kinesin and myosin motors. In my talk, I will present a robust mechanistic model of dynein motility, directionality and force generation. I will also show how adaptor proteins that recruit the dynein-dynactin complex to intracellular cargos regulate its motility and force generation.

“Molecular Messages in the Human Gut Microbiome”
Jan 30, 2019 at 12:00pm - Leichtag 107
Hosted by Hetika Vora
Numerous studies with varying degrees of statistical power have found correlations between the constitution of the human gut microbiome and disease states. But the molecules and mechanism(s) connecting a dysbiotic microbiome to a specific disease are not well known. In an attempt to address this gap, we undertook a series of screens to link bacterial metabolites with the regulation of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. The talk will describe the screening logic of the approach, the selection of candidate bacterial producers, the discovery of the small molecule regulators of cytokine production and their biosynthesis, and speculations about mechanisms.

2017 MBTG Annual Retreat
Friday May 5th, 2017
MBTG Faculty and Trainees attended the MBTG Annual Retreat on Friday May 5th, 2017 at the Institute of the Americas’ Copley International Conference Center. The Retreat featured talks by young and emerging Faculty at UCSD. Elena Koslover of the Department of Physics gave a talk on "Emergent Physics of Intracellular Soft Matter, from DNA to Cytoplasm." Dmitry Lyumkis of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies followed with a talk describing his research on “Structural Insights into Retroviral Integration using Cryo-EM.”
Five MBTG alumni gave true “lightning” talks of five minutes each on their research to update the group on their progress since leaving the program. Afterwards, MBTG trainees presented their research at a Poster Session held in the Arango Foyer. PI Elizabeth Komives and the poster judges recognized Sarah Ur and Adam Maloney with poster awards for their research. Sarah's research was entitled: “The Msh4‐Msh5 complex’s role in meiotic crossover formation” and Adam's was "A Minimal In Vitro Translation for Structural Studies of FMRP." Congratulations Sarah and Adam!
Trainees and Faculty enjoyed a BBQ Dinner afterwards on the Friend Plaza to start off their weekend right. Thanks to faculty, speakers, trainees, and alumni for their participation in making this event a great success!
