Here, he shares a little bit about his research, why centrioles are so beautiful, and why EMBL\u2019s strength in imaging and multidisciplinary culture are the right environment for his scientific endeavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Tell us about your research.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>During my PhD, I worked on nuclear pore complexes that allow small molecules and ions to freely pass in and out of the nucleus. Then, during my postdoc, I studied centrioles \u2013 organelles that organise microtubules and are important in many cell functions, including cell division, motility, and signalling. While we\u2019ve experienced major advances in understanding the structures, molecular compositions, and assembly principles of both of these important protein complexes, we don\u2019t know why evolution selected these particular ultrastructures to do the jobs they do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the centrioles of all animals have a 9-fold symmetry. However, we don\u2019t yet know why, although it seems that this symmetry has an impact on the cell structures involved in motility. We also don\u2019t know why centriole length is tightly controlled within each cell type but varies greatly between different species, and this may have functional relevance. Centriole structure is very small \u2013 about ~500 nanometres, while the many important functions it performs (e.g., cell division, signalling, motility) happen on a bigger, cellular scale (~100 micrometres). So, we need a multi-scale model that links this range and we also need the necessary retro-engineering to decipher the design principles of macromolecular assemblies and their impact on cellular functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my lab, I want to perturb three parameters of centriole structure \u2013 symmetry, distance, and length \u2013 and then measure the effect of these changes at different scales using high-speed atomic force microscopy, super-resolution microscopy, and live cell imaging. This way, my group and I can establish how organelle ultrastructure controls physiological cell function and choose the best scale to intervene and then control it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. You\u2019ve described centrioles as beautiful organelles.&nbsp;What makes them so pretty?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That said, I think the combination of an odd symmetry and their chiral nature makes centrioles more similar to what we might expect in an art gallery than some other less ordered cellular structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. What previously limited studies on centrioles, and why can we study them better now?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes centrioles difficult to study is their size. It is impossible to resolve their features with conventional optical microscopy. We now can combine techniques: CRISPR-Cas9 allows for gene editing with unprecedented precision. Cryo-electron microscopy makes it possible to visualise the unaltered structure of centrioles. Super-resolution microscopy localises individual proteins within the organelle ultrastructure. Finally, high-speed atomic force microscopy can extract dynamic information at molecular resolution. And <em>all<\/em> these techniques provide data incredibly quickly, thanks to automated data acquisition and neural network-aided data analysis. The combination of techniques covers different spatial and temporal resolutions. So, we can observe all relevant scales \u2013 from individual molecules to full cell, paving the way to understand centrioles within the context of a cell.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Why is EMBL the right place to do this kind of research?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>EMBL is unique given its multidisciplinary nature which coexists with the precise goal of solving biological problems. It has consequently converged expertise of cutting-edge microscopy techniques, cell biology, and data analysis.&nbsp; And that\u2019s what you need to answer these kinds of questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Your work looks at molecular structure and symmetry. On a bigger scale, what would you say is one of the most beautiful non-human structures?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Extremely hard to answer. One could go from snowflakes to spider webs and nautilus shells up to the Andromeda Galaxy. (You&#8217;ll notice my picks all contain some form of symmetry and\/or chirality).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. You are originally from Trieste, Italy, but haven\u2019t lived there for a while.&nbsp; What do you miss most?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to my parents and some close friends, I definitely miss the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. What are your favourite pastimes outside of the lab?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I enjoy cooking, running, reading, and spending time with my wife and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>8. If you couldn\u2019t be a scientist, what other career might you have pursued?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When I was a kid, my first choice was actually to become a wizard \u2013 not a magician, but a real wizard. However, I eventually found out that it was not a realistic option.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Using gene editing and three types of microscopy, one of EMBL\u2019s newest group leaders is deciphering the functions of one of the smallest molecules involved in cell division, motility, and signalling, known as a centriole.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":100,"featured_media":44464,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,17593],"tags":[64,792,35,295],"embl_taxonomy":[19171,19067],"class_list":["post-44428","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lab-matters","category-people-perspectives","tag-cell-biology","tag-organelle","tag-structural-biology","tag-welcome","embl_taxonomy-banterle-group","embl_taxonomy-niccolo-banterle"],"acf":{"featured":true,"show_featured_image":false,"field_target_display":"","article_intro":"<p>New group leader deciphers the challenging, yet \u2018beautiful\u2019 structure of centrioles at different scales to understand their functions<\/p>\n","related_links":[{"link_description":"Banterle group","link_url":"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/groups\/banterle\/"},{"link_description":"EMBL Cell Biology and Biophysics unit","link_url":"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/research\/units\/cell-biology-biophysics\/"}],"source_article":false,"in_this_article":false,"press_contact":"None"},"embl_taxonomy_terms":[{"uuid":"a:3:{i:0;s:36:\"302cfdf7-365b-462a-be65-82c7b783ebf7\";i:1;s:36:\"64999cc4-9a7c-4fea-8339-0e2acc990e08\";i:2;s:36:\"bba51eb1-4f06-4122-8e6a-2934fb6ee134\";}","parents":[],"name":["Banterle Group"],"slug":"banterle-group","description":"What &gt;
