In the honey bee brain, PDF is expressed in about 15 clock neurons per hemisphere that lie between the central brain and the optic lobes. As in other insects, the bee PDF neurons form wide arborizations in the brain, but certain differences are evident. For example, they arborize only sparsely in the accessory medulla (AME), which serves as important communication center of the circadian clock in cockroaches and flies. Furthermore, all bee PDF neurons cluster together, which makes it impossible to distinguish individual projections. Here, we investigated the developing bee PDF network and found that the first three PDF neurons arise in the third larval instar and form a dense network of varicose fibers at the base of the developing medulla that strongly resembles the AME of hemimetabolous insects. In addition, they send faint fibers toward the lateral superior protocerebrum. In last larval instar, PDF cells with larger somata appear and send fibers toward the distal medulla and the medial protocerebrum. In the dorsal part of the medulla serpentine layer, a small PDF knot evolves from which PDF fibers extend ventrally. This knot disappears during metamorphosis and the varicose arborizations in the putative AME become fainter. Instead, a new strongly stained PDF fiber hub appears in front of the lobula. Simultaneously, the number of PDF neurons increases and the PDF neuronal network in the brain gets continuously more complex.}, language = {en} } @article{BeerHelfrichFoerster2020, author = {Beer, Katharina and Helfrich-F{\"o}rster, Charlotte}, title = {Model and Non-model Insects in Chronobiology}, series = {Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience}, volume = {14}, journal = {Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience}, issn = {1662-5153}, doi = {10.3389/fnbeh.2020.601676}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-218721}, year = {2020}, abstract = {The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is an established model organism in chronobiology, because genetic manipulation and breeding in the laboratory are easy.

A. mellifera hallmarks the research on the interplay between the clock and sociality and complex behaviors like sun compass navigation and time-place-learning. Nevertheless, there are aspects of clock structure and function, like for example the role of the clock in photoperiodism and diapause, which can be only insufficiently investigated in these two models. Unlike high-latitude flies such as Chymomyza costata or D. ezoana, cosmopolitan D. melanogaster flies do not display a photoperiodic diapause. Similarly, A. mellifera bees do not go into "real" diapause, but most solitary bee species exhibit an obligatory diapause. Furthermore, sociality evolved in different Hymenoptera independently, wherefore it might be misleading to study the social clock only in one social insect. Consequently, additional research on non-model insects is required to understand the circadian clock in Diptera and Hymenoptera.

The social lifestyle of a honey bee colony has been shown to influence circadian behavior in nurse bees, which do not exhibit rhythmic behavior when they are nursing. On the other hand, forager bees display strong circadian rhythms. Solitary bees, like the mason bee, do not nurse their offspring and do not live in hive communities, but face the same daily environmental changes as honey bees. Besides their lifestyle mason and honey bees differ in their development and life history, because mason bees overwinter after eclosion as adults in their cocoons until they emerge in spring. Honey bees do not undergo diapause and have a relatively short development of a few weeks until they emerge. In my thesis, I present a comparison of the circadian clock of social honey bees (Apis mellifera) and solitary mason bees (Osmia bicornis and Osmia cornuta) on the neuroanatomical level and behavioral output level. I firstly characterized in detail the localization of the circadian clock in the bee brain via the expression pattern of two clock components, namely the clock protein PERIOD (PER) and the neuropeptide Pigment Dispersing Factor (PDF), in the brain of honey bee and mason bee. PER is localized in lateral neuron clusters (which we called lateral neurons 1 and 2: LN1 and LN2) and dorsal neuron clusters (we called dorsal lateral neurons and dorsal neurons: DLN, DN), many glia cells and photoreceptor cells. This expression pattern is similar to the one in other insect species and indicates a common ground plan of clock cells among insects. In the LN2 neuron cluster with cell bodies located in the lateral brain, PER is co-expressed with PDF. These cells build a complex arborization network throughout the brain and provide the perfect structure to convey time information to brain centers, where complex behavior, e.g. sun-compass orientation and time memory, is controlled. The PDF arborizations centralize in a dense network (we named it anterio-lobular PDF hub: ALO) which is located in front of the lobula. In other insects, this fiber center is associated with the medulla (accessory medulla: AME). Few PDF cells build the ALO already in very early larval development and the cell number and complexity of the network grows throughout honey bee development. Thereby, dorsal regions are innervated first by PDF fibers and, in late larval development, the fibers grow laterally to the optic lobe and central brain. The overall expression pattern of PER and PDF are similar in adult social and solitary bees, but I found a few differences in the PDF network density in the posterior protocerebrum and the lamina, which may be associated with evolution of sociality in bees. Secondly, I monitored activity rhythms, for which I developed and established a device to monitor locomotor activity rhythms of individual honey bees with contact to a mini colony in the laboratory. This revealed new aspects of social synchronization and survival of young bees with indirect social contact to the mini colony (no trophalaxis was possible). For mason bees, I established a method to monitor emergence and locomotor activity rhythms and I could show that circadian emergence rhythms are entrainable by daily temperature cycles. Furthermore, I present the first locomotor activity rhythms of solitary bees, which show strong circadian rhythms in their behavior right after emergence. Honey bees needed several days to develop circadian locomotor rhythms in my experiments. I hypothesized that honey bees do not emerge with a fully matured circadian system in the hive, while solitary bees, without the protection of a colony, would need a fully matured circadian clock right away after emergence. Several indices in published work and preliminary studies support my hypothesis and future studies on PDF expression in different developmental stages in solitary bees may provide hard evidence.}, subject = {Chronobiologie}, language = {en} } @article{BeckerKucharskiRoessleretal.2016, author = {Becker, Nils and Kucharski, Robert and R{\"o}ssler, Wolfgang and Maleszka, Ryszard}, title = {Age-dependent transcriptional and epigenomic responses to light exposure in the honey bee brain}, series = {FEBS Open Bio}, volume = {6}, journal = {FEBS Open Bio}, number = {7}, doi = {10.1002/2211-5463.12084}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-147080}, pages = {622-639}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Light is a powerful environmental stimulus of special importance in social honey bees that undergo a behavioral transition from in-hive to outdoor foraging duties. Our previous work has shown that light exposure induces structural neuronal plasticity in the mushroom bodies (MBs), a brain center implicated in processing inputs from sensory modalities. Here, we extended these analyses to the molecular level to unravel light-induced transcriptomic and epigenomic changes in the honey bee brain. We have compared gene expression in brain compartments of 1- and 7-day-old light-exposed honey bees with age-matched dark-kept individuals. We have found a number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), both novel and conserved, including several genes with reported roles in neuronal plasticity. Most of the DEGs show age-related changes in the amplitude of light-induced expression and are likely to be both developmentally and environmentally regulated. Some of the DEGs are either known to be methylated or are implicated in epigenetic processes suggesting that responses to light exposure are at least partly regulated at the epigenome level. Consistent with this idea light alters the DNA methylation pattern of bgm, one of the DEGs affected by light exposure, and the expression of microRNA miR-932. This confirms the usefulness of our approach to identify candidate genes for neuronal plasticity and provides evidence for the role of epigenetic processes in driving the molecular responses to visual stimulation.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Becker2020, author = {Becker, Mira Caroline}, title = {Principles of olfactory-visual integration to form a common percept in honeybees}, doi = {10.25972/OPUS-19919}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-199190}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2020}, abstract = {The honeybee is a well studied and important organism in neuroethology. The possibility to train them with a classical conditioning paradigm and their miniature brain provide a perfect requisite to investigate the neuronal principles of learning and memory. Honeybees use visual and olfactory cues to detect flowers during their foraging trips. Hence, the reward association of a nectar source is a multi-modal construct, which has at least two major components - olfactory and visual cues. It is still an open question, how both sensory components are converged in the mushroom body, which represent the multi-modal integration centre of the honeybee brain. The main goal of this study, is to investigate the processing of multiple modalities and how a reward association is formed. This includes, how and wether both sensory modalities interfere during learning. Thus, in this study stimulation with UV, blue and green light was used to evoke distinct photoreceptor activities in the compound eye. Furthermore, three different odours (Geraniol, Citronellol and Farnesol) were used. These stimuli were tested in three different experimental series. The first experiment involved classical differential conditioning of the single modalities - odour and colour. Honeybees showed high learning performances in differentiating olfactory stimuli and also reliable responses for visual conditioning. Furthermore, a temporal discrepancy in the stimulus length for best learning in the olfatcoty and visual cues was found. In the second series, it was tested how multi-modal compounds are perceived. This includes, unique cues (configural processing) or the sum of the single components of a compound (elemen- tal processing). This was tested by combining single odour components with monochromatic light in a positive (PP) and negative patterning (NP) experiment. During PP, the olfactory- visual compound was rewarded, whereas the single components were unrewarded. In contrast, during NP the single components were reinforced, but the compound was not. In addition, the ability to distinguish between two different light stimuli presented as a part of an olfactory-visual compound with the same odour component during acquisition was tested. In a memory test, the light stimuli were presented again as a compound and in addition as the single components. The results revealed that bees used elemental processing with compounds containing green and blue light. In contrast, when UV light was presented the bees used configural processing. Finally, a third experiment was conducted at the neuronal level. Multi-unit recordings were established to provide a suitable method to analyse extrinsic neurons at the mushroom body output region, the so called ventral lobe of the pedunculus. Here, three different odours (Geran- iol, Farnesol and Citronellol), two colours (green and blue) and two combined stimuli (colour + odour) were chosen as stimuli, to search for possible variations in processing stimuli with different modalities.

Moreover, there is need for an efficient light-gated potassium (K\(^{+}\)) channel that can rapidly inhibit spiking in targeted neurons. Considering the importance of Ca\(^{2+}\) and K\(^{+}\) in cell physiology, light-activated Ca\(^{2+}\)-permeant and K\(^{+}\)-specific channels would be welcome additions to the optogenetic toolbox.

Optimized fusion constructs showed strong light-gated conductance in Xenopus laevis oocytes and in rat hippocampal neurons. These constructs could also be used to control the motility of Drosophila melanogaster larvae, when expressed in motoneurons. Illumination led to body contraction when motoneurons expressed the light-sensitive Ca\(^{2+}\)-permeant channel, and to body extension when expressing the light-sensitive K\(^{+}\) channel, both effectively and reversibly paralyzing the larvae. Further optimization of these constructs will be required for application in adult flies since both constructs led to eclosion failure when expressed in motoneurons.}, language = {en} } @article{BeckHovhanyanMenegazzietal.2018, author = {Beck, Katherina and Hovhanyan, Anna and Menegazzi, Pamela and Helfrich-F{\"o}rster, Charlotte and Raabe, Thomas}, title = {Drosophila RSK Influences the Pace of the Circadian Clock by Negative Regulation of Protein Kinase Shaggy Activity}, series = {Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience}, volume = {11}, journal = {Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience}, number = {122}, issn = {1662-5099}, doi = {10.3389/fnmol.2018.00122}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-196034}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Endogenous molecular circadian clocks drive daily rhythmic changes at the cellular, physiological, and behavioral level for adaptation to and anticipation of environmental signals.

This study focuses on the molecular function of Ribosomal S6 Kinase (RSK) in the Drosophila melanogaster circadian clock. Mutations in the human rsk2 gene cause Coffin-Lowry syndrome, which is associated with severe mental disabilities. Knock-out studies with Drosophila ortholog rsk uncovered functions in synaptic processes, axonal transport and adult behavior including associative learning and circadian activity. However, the molecular targets of RSK remain elusive. Our experiments provide evidence that RSK acts in the key pace maker neurons as a negative regulator of Shaggy (SGG) kinase activity, which in turn determines timely nuclear entry of the clock proteins Period and Timeless to close the negative feedback loop. Phosphorylation of serine 9 in SGG is mediated by the C-terminal kinase domain of RSK, which is in agreement with previous genetic studies of RSK in the circadian clock but argues against the prevailing view that only the N-terminal kinase domain of RSK proteins carries the effector function.

Die Serobiotyp O:3/4-St{\"a}mme haben ein anderes Repertoir von Virulenz Faktoren erworben, darunter Gene bzw. genomische Inseln f{\"u}r das Ysp Typ 3 Sekretionssystem, Rtx-{\"a}hnliches putatives Toxin, Insektizid-Toxine und ein funktionelles PTS System f{\"u}r die Aufnahme von N-acetyl-galactosamin, dem aga-Operon. Nach dem Transfer des aga-Operons in Y. enterocolitica subsp. enterocolitica O:8/1B konnte Wachstum auf N-acetyl-galactosamin festgestellt werden. Neben diesen Genen k{\"o}nnen m{\"o}glicherweise auch zwei Prophagen (PhiYep-2 und PhiYep-3) und eine asn tRNA assoziierte genomische Insel (GIYep-01) zur Pathoadaptation von Y. enterocolitica subsp. palearctica Serobiotyp O:3/4 beitragen. Der PhiYep-3 Prophage und die GIYep-01 Insel weisen Rekombinationsaktivit{\"a}t auf, und PhiYep-3 wurde nicht in allen untersuchten Serobiotyp O:3/4 St{\"a}mmen gefunden. Y. enterocolitica subsp. palearctica Serobiotyp O:5,27/3 Stamm Y527P ist genetisch eng verwandt zu allen Serobiotyp O:3/4 Isolaten, wohingegen die Biotyp 1A Isolate ein mehr Mosaik-artiges Genom aufweisen und potentielle Virulenzgene sowohl mit Serobiotyp O:8/1B als auch O:3/4 gemeinsam haben, was einen gemeinsamen Vorfahren impliziert. Neben dem pYV Virulenz-Plasmid fehlen den Biotyp 1A Isolaten klassische Virulenzmarker wie das Ail Adhesin, das YstA Enterotoxin und das Virulenz-assoziierte Protein C (VapC). Interessanterweise gibt es keine betr{\"a}chtlichen Unterschiede zwischen den bekannten Virulenzfaktoren des nosokomialen Isolats und dem Umweltisolat der Biotyp 1A-Gruppe, abgesehen von einem verk{\"u}rzten Rtx Toxin-{\"a}hnlichem Genkluster und {\"U}berresten eines P2-{\"a}hnlichen Phagen im Krankenhausisolat der Serogruppe O:5.}, subject = {Genanalyse}, language = {en} } @article{BatramJonesJanzenetal.2014, author = {Batram, Christopher and Jones, Nivola G. and Janzen, Christian J. and Markert, Sebastian M. and Engstler, Markus}, title = {Expression site attenuation mechanistically links antigenic variation and development in Trypanosoma brucei}, series = {eLife}, volume = {3}, journal = {eLife}, number = {e02324}, issn = {2050-084X}, doi = {10.7554/eLife.02324}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-119727}, year = {2014}, abstract = {We have discovered a new mechanism of monoallelic gene expression that links antigenic variation, cell cycle, and development in the model parasite Trypanosoma brucei. African trypanosomes possess hundreds of variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) genes, but only one is expressed from a telomeric expression site (ES) at any given time. We found that the expression of a second VSG alone is sufficient to silence the active VSG gene and directionally attenuate the ES by disruptor of telomeric silencing-1B (DOT1B)-mediated histone methylation. Three conserved expression-site-associated genes (ESAGs) appear to serve as signal for ES attenuation. Their depletion causes G1-phase dormancy and reversible initiation of the slender-to-stumpy differentiation pathway.

To date most studies have focused on narrow taxonomic groups or lack a design that allows partitioning of the components of diversity. Here, we consider an exceptionally large dataset (113,952 individuals representing 5,858 species), obtained from the San Lorenzo forest in Panama, where the phylogenetic breadth of arthropod taxa was surveyed using 14 protocols targeting the soil, litter, understory, lower and upper canopy habitats, replicated across seasons in 2003 and 2004. This dataset is used to explore the relative influence of horizontal, vertical and seasonal drivers of arthropod distribution in this forest. We considered arthropod abundance, observed and estimated species richness, additive decomposition of species richness, multiplicative partitioning of species diversity, variation in species composition, species turnover and guild structure as components of diversity. At the scale of our study (2km of distance, 40m in height and 400 days), the effects related to the vertical and seasonal dimensions were most important. Most adult arthropods were collected from the soil/litter or the upper canopy and species richness was highest in the canopy. We compared the distribution of arthropods and trees within our study system. Effects related to the seasonal dimension were stronger for arthropods than for trees. We conclude that: (1) models of beta diversity developed for tropical trees are unlikely to be applicable to tropical arthropods; (2) it is imperative that estimates of global biodiversity derived from mass collecting of arthropods in tropical rainforests embrace the strong vertical and seasonal partitioning observed here; and (3) given the high species turnover observed between seasons, global climate change may have severe consequences for rainforest arthropods.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Basile2009, author = {Basile, Rebecca}, title = {Thermoregulation and Resource Management in the Honeybee (Apis mellifera)}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-39793}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Ein grundlegender Faktor, der f{\"u}r das {\"U}berleben einer Kolonie sozialer Insekten ausschlaggebend ist, liegt in der F{\"a}higkeit Nahrung durch sogenannte „Trophallaxis" auszutauschen. Diese F{\"u}tterungskontakte sorgen f{\"u}r die gleichm{\"a}ßige Verteilung der Nahrung innerhalb der Kolonie und werden als einer der Grundpfeiler der Sozialit{\"a}t der Staatenbildenden Insekten erachtet. Im Fall der Honigbienen finden diese Kontakte in vollkommener Dunkelheit statt. Damit es in dieser Situation {\"u}berhaupt zum Nahrungsaustausch kommen kann, sind die Antennen von großer Wichtigkeit. Ein erster Schritt in den Verhaltensweisen, die der Rezipient eines trophallaktischen Kontaktes zeigt, ist der Kontakt einer Antennenspitze mit den Mundwerkzeugen des Donoren, da sich dort die regurgitierte Nahrung befindet. Diese Ber{\"u}hrung hat aufgrund der gustatorischen Sensibilit{\"a}t der Antenne den Zweck, das angebotene Futter zu „erschmecken". Die rechte Antenne wird vom Rezipienten eines trophallaktischen Kontakts signifikant h{\"a}ufiger eingesetzt als die linke Antenne. Die Pr{\"a}ferenz f{\"u}r die rechte Antenne bleibt dabei auch erhalten, wenn ein Teil der Antennengeisel abgetrennt wurde, also die sensorischen F{\"a}higkeiten der rechten Antenne stark beeintr{\"a}chtigt wurden. Der Grund f{\"u}r die Pr{\"a}ferenz der rechten Antenne k{\"o}nnte ihrer erh{\"o}hten Sensibilit{\"a}t gegen{\"u}ber Zuckerwasser zugrunde liegen, da die rechte Antenne im Laborversuch signifikant st{\"a}rker auf Stimulationen mit Zuckerwasser verschiedener Konzentrationen reagierte als die linke. Trophallaktische Kontakte sichern Individuen innerhalb einer Kolonie den Zugang zur lebenswichtigen Nahrung. Im Beispiel der Honigbienen ist st{\"a}ndige Zugriff auf Nahrung besonders wichtig, da es sich um ein heterothermes Tier handelt, das die F{\"a}higkeit besitzt, aktiv seine K{\"o}rpertemperatur zu regulieren. Obgleich jedes Individuum in der Lage ist, seine K{\"o}rpertemperatur den eigenen Bed{\"u}rfnissen anzupassen, ist diese F{\"a}higkeit streng durch den in der Nahrung aufgenommenen Zucker reguliert. Im Gegensatz zu den S{\"a}ugetieren oder V{\"o}geln, die f{\"u}r eine Erh{\"o}hung des Blutzuckerspiegels auch auf Fett- oder Eiweißressourcen zur{\"u}ckgreifen k{\"o}nnen, ist die Honigbiene auf die Glucose aus der aufgenommenen Nahrung angewiesen. Die Ergebnisse dieser Untersuchung zeigen, dass der Zuckergehalt der aufgenommenen Nahrung positiv mit der Thoraxtemperatur der Bienen korreliert. Dieser Zusammenhang tritt auf, selbst wenn keine W{\"a}rmeerzeugung f{\"u}r die Brutpflege oder f{\"u}r das Erw{\"a}rmen der Wintertraube notwendig ist und die Tiere außerhalb des Stockes ohne eigentliche Notwendigkeit f{\"u}r die W{\"a}rmeerzeugung in einem K{\"a}fig gehalten werden. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung zeigen, dass die Rezipienten beim Nahrungsaustausch eine signifikant h{\"o}here Thoraxtemperatur haben als die Donoren. Außerdem zeigen die Rezipienten nach der F{\"u}tterung signifikant h{\"a}ufiger Brutw{\"a}rmeverhalten als die Donoren. Letztere haben eine signifikant niedrigere Thoraxtemperatur als die Rezipienten und zeigen eine Verhaltenstendenz, h{\"a}ufig zwischen Brutbereich und Honiglager hin- und her zu pendeln. Dabei nehmen sie im Honiglager Honig in ihren Kropf auf und f{\"u}ttern mit dieser Nahrung danach Bienen im Brutbereich. Außerdem zeigen die Ergebnisse, dass es einen w{\"a}rmegesteuerten Ausl{\"o}semechanismus gibt, der den Donoren und Rezipienten des trophallaktischen Kontakts dazu verhilft, trotz der Dunkelheit des Stocks praktisch verz{\"o}gerungsfreie Nahrungs{\"u}bertragung am Ort des h{\"o}chsten Energieverbrauchs zu gew{\"a}hrleisten. Das Hervorw{\"u}rgen von Nahrung angesichts einer W{\"a}rmequelle k{\"o}nnte seinen Ursprung in einer Beschwichtigungsgeste haben. Aggressive Tiere zeigen neben sichtbaren aggressiven Verhalten auch durch ihre erh{\"o}hte K{\"o}rpertemperatur, dass sie bereit sind sich auf einen Kampf einzulassen. Die Temperaturerh{\"o}hung eines aggressiven Tieres beruht dabei auf der erh{\"o}hten Muskelaktivit{\"a}t, die vor allem bei Insekten dazu n{\"o}tig ist, einen entsprechende Reaktion im Falle eines Kampfes oder der Flucht zeigen zu k{\"o}nnen. Wird ein Individuum mit Aggression konfrontiert, so bleibt ihm die Wahl sich auf einen Kampf einzulassen, zu fl{\"u}chten oder durch eine Beschwichtigungsgeste eine Deeskalation der Situation einzuleiten. Besonders h{\"a}ufig wird f{\"u}r diesen Zweck Nahrung regurgitiert und dem dominanteren Tier angeboten, um einem Konflikt aus dem Weg zu gehen.

Das daraus resultierende Managementsystem, welches sparsam mit den Ressourcen haushaltet und auf die individuellen Bed{\"u}rfnisse jeder einzelnen Biene einzugehen vermag, k{\"o}nnte ein Grund f{\"u}r die F{\"a}higkeit der Honigbienen zur Entwicklung mehrj{\"a}hriger Kolonien sein, die, anders als Hummeln oder Wespen, auch den Winter in gem{\"a}ßigten Zonen als Gemeinschaft zu {\"u}berstehen verm{\"o}gen.}, subject = {Biene}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Bartossek2018, author = {Bartossek, Thomas}, title = {Structural and functional analysis of the trypanosomal variant surface glycoprotein using x-ray scattering techniques and fluorescence microscopy}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-144775}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Trypanosoma brucei is an obligate parasite and causative agent of severe diseases affecting humans and livestock. The protist lives extracellularly in the bloodstream of the mammalian host, where it is prone to attacks by the host immune system. As a sophisticated means of defence against the immune response, the parasite's surface is coated in a dense layer of the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG), that reduces identification of invariant epitopes on the cell surface by the immune system to levels that prevent host immunity. The VSG has to form a coat that is both dense and mobile, to shield invariant surface proteins from detection and to allow quick recycling of the protective coat during immune evasion. This coat effectively protects the parasite from the harsh environment that is the mammalian bloodstream and leads to a persistent parasitemia if the infection remains untreated. The available treatment against African Trypanosomiasis involves the use of drugs that are themselves severely toxic and that can lead to the death of the patient. Most of the drugs used as treatment were developed in the early-to-mid 20th century, and while developments continue, they still represent the best medical means to fight the parasite. The discovery of a fluorescent VSG gave rise to speculations about a potential interaction between the VSG coat and components of the surrounding medium, that could also lead to a new approach in the treatment of African Trypanosomiasis that involves the VSG coat. The initially observed fluorescence signal was specific for a combination of a VSG called VSG'Y' and the triphenylmethane (TPM) dye phenol red. Exchanging this TPM to a bromo-derivative led to the observation of another fluorescence effect termed trypanicidal effect which killed the parasite independent of the expressed VSG and suggests a structurally conserved feature between VSGs that could function as a specific drug target against T. b. brucei. The work of this thesis aims to identify the mechanisms that govern the unique VSG'Y' fluorescence and the trypanocidal effect. Fluorescence experiments and protein mutagenesis of VSG'Y' as well as crystallographic trials with a range of different VSGs were utilized in the endeavour to identify the binding mechanisms between TPM compounds and VSGs, to find potentially conserved structural features between VSGs and to identify the working mechanisms of VSG fluorescence and the trypanocidal effect. These trials have the potential to lead to the formulation of highly specific drugs that target the parasites VSG coat. During the crystallographic trials of this thesis, the complete structure of a VSG was solved experimentally for the first time. This complete structure is a key component in furthering the understanding of the mechanisms governing VSG coat formation. X-ray scattering techniques, involving x-ray crystallography and small angle x-ray scattering were applied to elucidate the first complete VSG structures, which reveal high flexibility of the protein and supplies insight into the importance of this flexibility in the formation of a densely packed but highly mobile surface coat.}, subject = {Trypanosoma brucei brucei}, language = {en} } @article{BartomeusPottsSteffanDewenteretal.2014, author = {Bartomeus, Ignasi and Potts, Simon G. and Steffan-Dewenter, Ingolf and Vaissiere, Bernard E. and Woyciechowski, Michal and Krewenka, Kristin M. and Tscheulin, Thomas and Roberts, Stuart P.

Up to 75\% of crop species benefit at least to some degree from animal pollination for fruit or seed set and yield. However, basic information on the level of pollinator dependence and pollinator contribution to yield is lacking for many crops. Even less is known about how insect pollination affects crop quality. Given that habitat loss and agricultural intensification are known to decrease pollinator richness and abundance, there is a need to assess the consequences for different components of crop production. Methods. We used pollination exclusion on flowers or inflorescences on a whole plant basis to assess the contribution of insect pollination to crop yield and quality in four flowering crops (spring oilseed rape, field bean, strawberry, and buckwheat) located in four regions of Europe. For each crop, we recorded abundance and species richness of flower visiting insects in ten fields located along a gradient from simple to heterogeneous landscapes. Results. Insect pollination enhanced average crop yield between 18 and 71\% depending on the crop. Yield quality was also enhanced in most crops. For instance, oilseed rape had higher oil and lower chlorophyll contents when adequately pollinated, the proportion of empty seeds decreased in buckwheat, and strawberries' commercial grade improved; however, we did not find higher nitrogen content in open pollinated field beans. Complex landscapes had a higher overall species richness of wild pollinators across crops, but visitation rates were only higher in complex landscapes for some crops. On the contrary, the overall yield was consistently enhanced by higher visitation rates, but not by higher pollinator richness. Discussion. For the four crops in this study, there is clear benefit delivered by pollinators on yield quantity and/or quality, but it is not maximized under current agricultural intensification. Honeybees, the most abundant pollinator, might partially compensate the loss of wild pollinators in some areas, but our results suggest the need of landscape-scale actions to enhance wild pollinator populations.}, language = {en} }
