Giant piezoresistance in silicon structures for microsystems
Piezoresistance (PZR), the change of electrical resistivity with an externally applied mechanical stress, is well known and was first measured in silicon almost 60 years ago. In addition to revealing
Dynamic Roles of H2B Ubiquitylation in Eukaryotic Cells
Nous proposons d’étudier chez la levure et chez les mammifères (dans des cellules en culture mais également chez l’animal) comment une marque épigénétique, l’ubiquitination de l’histone H2B est régulée sur l’ensemble du génome. Nous essayerons de comprendre les différentes fonctions de cette modification et pourquoi les niveaux d’ubiquitination de H2B sont très précisément régulés.
