Elucidating the Human Telomerase Interactome in Aneuploidy-Induced Replication Stress Context

Accumulation of impaired proteins presents a critical challenge for cells, and control systems have evolved to minimize their detrimental effects. Cells have developed mechanisms to address ribosomal stalls caused by problematic translation.

General principles of DNA damage sensing by (lipid) membranes Dr. María Moriel-Carretero Centre de Recherche en Biologie cellulaire de Montpellier (CRBM) Université de Montpellier-CNRS, Montpellier, France invited by Teresa Teixeira Monday 1st December 2025, at 10:30 am at IBPC Conference room Read more

Re-appraising the role of R-loops in transcription-driven genome instability Dr. Vincent Vanoosthuyse LBMC, ENS-Lyon, France invited by Teresa Teixeira Monday 24 November 2025, at 10:30 am at IBPC Conference room

Previous studies using ubiquitin traps combined with mass spectrometry revealed that in Bortezomib (BTZ) resistant Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) cells, a selective autophagy mechanism, known as proteaphagy, was a main mechanism eliminating the proteasome and reducing the sensitivity to this treatment.

TELS1 reveals a minor contribution for telomere loops in chromosome end-protection Dr Jérôme Dejardin invité par Maria Teresa Teixeira Lundi 9 Décembre 2024 à 10:30 à l’IBPC – Salle de Conférences 3è étage Chromosome-end protection is crucial for genome stability, Read more

“Molecular and Cellular Responses to the Shortest Telomere in Saccharomyces cerevisiae” 

directed by Dr Teresa Teixeira.

The defense will take place on Friday, October 11, 2024, at 2:00 PM, in the Edmond de Rothschild Library at the Institut de Biologie Physico-Chimique (IBPC), located at 13 rue Pierre et Marie Curie, 75005 Paris.

Telomere maintenance is a universal hallmark of cancers to sustain the unlimited proliferative potential. In ~85% of cancers, telomere shortening is mitigated by reactivated telomerase expression while the other ~15% use a recombination-based mechanism, termed Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres (ALT).
