The CYTOMECH project investigates the mechanics of cytoplasm during early embryo development, focusing on how endomembranes influence cell division. It aims to enhance understanding of cytoplasm properties and their role in morphogenesis using sea urchin embryos as a model.
The cytoplasm is not a simple water-like liquid; it is a crowded heterogeneous medium filled with macromolecules, active cytoskeleton networks and endomembranes.
This rich rheology must be precisely coordinated to regulate fundamental cellular processes such as molecular diffusion or cell division.
However, while the material properties of the cytoplasm have been well studied at the nanoscale relevant to e.g. protein diffusion, its regulation at the scale of larger assemblies, like nuclei or mit…
