    Margaret Buckingham Élue Membre le 29 novembre 2005 dans la section Biologie intégrative Directeur de recherche au CNRS, Professeur à l'Institut Pasteur Œuvre scientifique Margaret Buckingham, de nationalités française et britannique, née en 1945, est diplômée (B.A., M.A., D. Phil.) de l’université d’Oxford. Depuis 1971, elle a mené sa carrière scientifique en France, d’abord dans le laboratoire de François Gros, puis à partir de 1987, en tant que chef de l’Unité de génétique moléculaire du développement, puis Professeur à l’Institut Pasteur où elle a été directrice du Département de biologie du développement. Elle est directeur de recherche au CNRS. Elle a présidé la section de Biologie du développement et de la reproduction au CNRS de 2001 à 2004 et la Société Française de Biologie du Développement de 2008 à 2011. Elle est actuellement membre du Comité Consultatif National d’Ethique (CCNE). Les recherches de Margaret Buckingham portent sur les mécanismes qui conduisent une cellule naïve à entrer dans un programme de différenciation tissulaire pendant le développement de l’organisme. Elle étudie les gènes qui régulent la formation et la régénération du muscle de squelette, ainsi que les populations cellulaires qui forment le cœur. Margaret Buckingham a effectué des études pionnières sur l’organisation des gènes du muscle et leurs différents modes d’expression pendant le développement. Parmi les gènes des facteurs de régulation myogénique, de la famille MyoD, l’expression de Myf5 précède la myogenèse chez l’embryon. En son absence, les cellules adoptent d’autres destins cellulaires, démontrant ainsi le rôle de Myf5 comme facteur de détermination myogénique.

Land Smith 2021 MELS ii Abstract Sina Queyras, in the essay “Lyric Conceptualism: A Manifesto in Progress,” describes the Lyric Conceptualist as a poet capable of recognizing the effects of disparate movements and employing a variety of lyric, conceptual, and language poetry techniques to continue to innovate in poetry without dismissing the work of other schools of poetic thought. Queyras sees the lyric conceptualist as an artistic curator who collects, modifies, selects, synthesizes, and adapts, to create verse that is both conceptual and accessible, using relevant materials and techniques from the past and present. This dissertation responds to Queyras’s idea with a collection of original poems in the lyric conceptualist mode, supported by a critical exegesis of that work.

For a number of years our group has been mainly interested in the regulation of muscle gene expression during myogenesis. Using primary cultures and cell lines we have tried to find out whether the coding sequences for muscle proteins are already present in an unexpressed form or if there is a transcriptional switch at the onset of differentiation.

  • Transcriptome Analyses Based on Genetic Screens
    Lagha et al. BMC Genomics 2010, 11:696 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/11/696 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transcriptome analyses based on genetic screens for Pax3 myogenic targets in the mouse embryo Mounia Lagha6†, Takahiko Sato6†, Béatrice Regnault1, Ana Cumano2, Aimée Zuniga3, Jonathan Licht4, Frédéric Relaix5, Margaret Buckingham6* Abstract Background: Pax3 is a key upstream regulator of the onset of myogenesis, controlling progenitor cell survival and behaviour as well as entry into the myogenic programme. It functions in the dermomyotome of the somite from which skeletal muscle derives and in progenitor cell populations that migrate from the somite such as those of the limbs. Few Pax3 target genes have been identified. Identifying genes that lie genetically downstream of Pax3 is therefore an important endeavour in elucidating the myogenic gene regulatory network. Results: We have undertaken a screen in the mouse embryo which employs a Pax3GFP allele that permits isolation of Pax3 expressing cells by flow cytometry and a Pax3PAX3-FKHR allele that encodes PAX3-FKHR in which the DNA binding domain of Pax3 is fused to the strong transcriptional activation domain of FKHR. This constitutes a gain of function allele that rescues the Pax3 mutant phenotype. Microarray comparisons were carried out between Pax3GFP/ + and Pax3GFP/PAX3-FKHR preparations from the hypaxial dermomyotome of somites at E9.5 and forelimb buds at E10.5. A further transcriptome comparison between Pax3-GFP positive and negative cells identified sequences specific to myogenic progenitors in the forelimb buds. Potential Pax3 targets, based on changes in transcript levels on the gain of function genetic background, were validated by analysis on loss or partial loss of function Pax3 mutant backgrounds.
