100th study using the C-Trap® provides crucial insights into how the Smc5/6 complex stabilizes certain DNA structures  

A recent study published in Nature Communications led by Shixin Liu from The Rockefeller University, New York, demonstrates how the C-Trap® can be used to directly visualize and observe molecular mechanisms in action, leading to better and faster insights into critical molecular processes. This study marks an important milestone for LUMICKS,…

C-Trap® experiments shed light on the mechanisms that govern Structural Maintenance of Chromosome (SMC) Complexes  

In two recent scientific publications, Johannes Stigler and his team from the Gene Center of the Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany, set out to mechanistically describe the action of the Structural Maintenance of Chromosome (SMC) Complexes using LUMICKS’ C-Trap® technology. By performing dynamic single-molecule experiments coupled with real-time visualization, they were able…

Transcription factors and chromatin co-condensate and generate forces that alter genomic structure and function

Researchers led by Yael David and Shixin Liu have published a Nature Communications study describing for the first time the mechanisms underlying the co-condensation between transcription factors and DNA. By performing dynamic single-molecule experiments using LUMICKS’ C-Trap® technology, they were able to prove the physiological importance of phase-separated sub-compartments (co-condensates)…

C-Trap® experiments suggest tubulin lattice state dictates tau envelope formation

Tau is an intrinsically disordered microtubule-associated protein (MAP) that helps stabilize microtubules by forming an envelope around them. This stabilizing protein has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, where abnormal chemical changes promote detachment of tau from microtubules and the formation of long threads that eventually lead to…
