How the twin-arginine translocase (Tat) system manages to transport folded proteins across membranes without any leaks? To answer this fundamental question we solved the first structure of TatB3C3 complex with bound cargo. Please check out new preprint!

Metformin targets mitochondrial complex I to lower blood glucose levels
Acute oral metformin administration lowers blood glucose levels by targeting mitochondrial complex I.
Authors use an elegant transgenic model to demonstrate that acute oral administration of metformin targets mitochondrial complex I to lower blood glucose.
A crucial contribution to the debate about the mechanisms of action of #metformin.

Árbol del Tule, Montezuma cypress near Oaxaca in Mexico is amazing. It is the biggest tree in the world by trunk width (14 m diameter). How just a few green needles maintain this tree over 2000 years is a mystery to me.
