This project investigates how cells, specifically fission yeast, detect and respond to chemical gradients, which is crucial for processes like mating and immune responses. By employing advanced imaging and molecular techniques, it aims to uncover the mechanisms behind gradient sensing and cellular communication.
How does a cell orient in response to a chemical cue?
This basic problem is at the core of how cells interact with their environment.
Indeed, the ability to move towards the source of a chemical gradient underlies behaviours as diverse as feeding, identifying a foreign invader or building interconnected cellular networks.
Furthermore, chemo-orientation forms the basis of gamete recognition, and is thus critical for genome diversification through sexual reproduction.
