The MiCoBion project has begun
The prestigious MiCoBion project was launched in September, supported by the "Twinning - Spreading Excellence and Widening Participation, Horizon 2020" program coordinated by the Charles University Faculty of Science (prof. Jan Tachezy, Department of Parasitology - BIOCEV). The project’s main goal is to foster scientific excellence and the innovative capacities of CU FS laboratories through collaboration with leading partners – the Catholic University of Leuven (CUL), the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and the Jacques Monod Institute (Paris Diderot University) – in the field of complex molecular profiling of biological systems (microbiomes) that will lead to innovative research into microbial communities and their impact on health and the environment.

Our Yeast research experts have received a prestigious Czech-American grant under the INTER-EXCELLENCE programme
The Yeast Colony Group team has been awarded grant support from INTER-EXCELLENCE programme for a new project of international research and development aimed at Czech-American collaboration. Supported project focuses on research into the molecular mechanisms of cell adaptation connected with cell aging, one of the most important questions in current biology. Regulatory proteins mediating cellular response to extracellular signals are among the most evolutionary conserved proteins in eukaryotes. Understanding of their function in relatively simple yeast model thus could contribute to identification of new regulations in metazoa.

Plant cells inherit knowledge of where’s up and where’s down from mother cell
In plants, polarization of the entire organism depends on every single cell being polarized. Cell division, however, disrupts polarization. How polarity is reestablished was unknown – until now. Researchers at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (IST Austria) and Faculty of Science, Prague, have solved one piece of the puzzle: They found that plant cells inherit the knowledge of where is up and where’s down from their mother cell. Study published in Nature Plants.
