Contact NowOur experts have a keen interest in the study of liquid-liquid and liquid-solid phase transitions in bacterial cells. We have cutting-edge super-resolution imaging or infinite diffraction microscopy apparently combined with single molecule trafficking methods, and computer analysis platforms to analyze key microbial biomolecular condensates undergoing LLPS, as well as the formation and organization of biomolecular condensates within the intracellular space. Here, CD BioSciences is committed to analyzing intrinsically disordered bacterial ribonucleoprotein bodies (BR-bodies).
Bacterial ribonucleoprotein bodies (BR-bodies) consist of C. crescentus ribonuclease E (Ccr-RNase E), RNA degradation components, and RNA. BR-bodies are biomolecular condensates in bacteria that have been shown to be directly assembled by liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), primarily through intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of RNase E scaffold proteins and RNA degradant client proteins phase-separated from RNA. BR-bodies serve as sites for sequestration, storage and regulation of intracellular RNA molecules in bacteria and are involved in a variety of cellular processes, including stress response, adaptation to changing environments and regulation of gene expression.

Like eukaryotic P-bodies and stress granules, BR-bodies provide a broadly conserved transbacterial gene regulatory mechanism that organizes the mRNA decay/processing machinery. CD BioSciences offers specialized services to analyze the structural dynamics and biochemical function in tissue mRNA decay of intrinsically disordered BR-bodies. Our services include:
CD BioSciences offers a simple modular biomolecular platform to characterize the LLPS of intrinsically disordered BR-bodies. We aim to help our clients understand and manipulate the underlying organizing principles of BR-bodies condensates, ultimately allowing disease modeling and developing new therapeutic approaches. If you have any special requirements for our services, please feel free to contact us.
