Paul Nakane Prize Lecture | FROM NUCLEOLAR MORPHOLOGY TO MOLECULAR REGULATION OF GENE EXPRESSION BY PHASE SEPARATION

“…We discovered the Nuclear Lipid Islets (NLIs) –globular ~100 nm structures containing PI (4,5) P2 (PIP2) at their periphery which associate with key transcription factors and showed that NLIs are crucial for efficient Polymerase II transcription. To decipher whether the NLIs surface recruits a transcription regulatory protein through PIP2 molecules in their surface, we employed a proteomic approach based on differential quantitative mass in combination with super-resolution microscopy. …”

Current strategies in the farm practices and post-harvest pesticidal defence by Luciano Suss, Fabio Molinari

“…In both cases, they deal with production methods characterized by a particular attention to the reduction of the environmental impact of all the farm practices used, especially for defence from adversities, being the element of major concern for environment and consumers’ health.Farm practice evolution, especially those about pest defence, is based on important conceptual change, accurate scientific analysis and organization of technical assistance, rationalization of agri-pharmaceutical product use is one of the main objective of Integrated Production Specifications (IPS). The quantitative reduction is the first objective, obtained by various means such as the use of efficient equipment and the qualitative selection based on the priority use of minor impact means, effectiveness being equal. …”
