Thanks!
Thanks!
Quick proteomics question: we want to use an exogenous biotin blocking scavenger for a TurboID experiment. We tried Biolock but is very inconsistent in our hands. Does anyone have another suggestion?
Cells come in many shapes and sizes, with diverse physiological functions. But how do #organelles and their interaction networks remodel during #differentiation of stem cells into different cell types? Hereβs what we discovered about neuronal differentiation: 1/13
Thrilled to share that the first part of my PhD work from @cohenlaboratory.bsky.social lab is now on bioRxiv! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Check out the threads below:
Our new paper's out: FidlTrackβstructure-aware single-particle tracking benchmarks/boost SPT fidelity
With it we resolve with sub-organelle res. e.g. BACE1 amyloidogenic APP cleavage #Alzheimers, ER exit events, map nanobody binding in realtime in ER/organelles π¬π§ #SingleMolecule

New paper in @jcb.org! We found a new regulator of p62 phase separation, autophagy, and antioxidant signaling. It is an E3 ligase adaptor called SHKBP1, but the effect is via direct p62 binding, not ubiquitination. Congrats to Lin Luan & team! @weillinstitute.bsky.social
An intracellular meteor shower. EB3 comets tracking growing microtubule plus-ends in a cultured cell.
Check out our newest findings on how #lysosomes are generated from #endolysosomes. Great work from @samit2104.bsky.social ! @biozentrum.unibas.ch , @unibas.ch #cellbio #cell #organelles

ππ to entire team esp co-lead Tim Bartels. So proud of @seppedeschepper.bsky.social brilliant first postdoc who now leads his own at VIB. πππto @chanzuckerberg.bsky.social for supporting the project from early pilot phase. Contact us if u want to explore next steps in PD gut/brain neuroimmunology!
π§ͺ We are excited to share this novel open access paper on Phasor Mixing Coefficient to analyze colocalization, developed by folks @i2janelia.bsky.social and @aicjanelia.bsky.social. This is also the first technical paper jointly published with our sister imaging center @malacridalab.bsky.social!
Excited to share a new story that transformed how we think about membrane domains in the ER!

Beyond thrilled to share my PhD work out today in @natcellbio.nature.com , uncovering a nanoscale acidic environment around lysosomes that controls their mobility through proton signaling.π₯³π₯³π₯³
Great thanks to my advisors and excellent peers for helping meοΌ

LLOMe has long been used to study lysosomal damage, yet how it works has remained a mystery.
Using cryo-electron tomography, we show it forms amyloid structures inside lysosomes that mechanically rupture membranes β revealing a new paradigm for lysosomal failure.

The Reck-Peterson lab at Weill Cornell Medicine is seeking a technician or staff scientist to work on Aspergillus projects. Broad background in fungal biology and techniques required. Bioinformatics skills preferred. Find out more at: reckpetersonlab.org.
This movie shows lysosomes (orange) and keratin (gray) in a cultured cell over 10 minutes.
Pre-pore and cis pores formed by full length perforin-2 during antigen escape from early phagosomes
Time for a new pre-print! How do dendritic cells control pore formation in their own endocytic compartments?
Our work shows that the unique transmembrane anchor of perforin-2 does not protect DC membranes, but instead it enables antigen escape during cross-presentation

Grateful to @focalplane.bsky.social for inviting us to write about our last paper on lysosomal tubulation during the stress response (rupress.org/jcb/article/...)!

It is a nice way to end the week: our improved RAB GTPase BioID map now online! www.nature.com/articles/s42... We hope it will be useful to the community, and we're happy to share any reagents!
Finally, the first public release of #BigVolumeBrowser, so after teasers, you can try it yourself. For details, please check the announcement post (1/2)

New insights into the activation of the most elusive and (so far) the least understood human inflammasome: NLRP6 is a sensor of endolysosomal damage
Excited to announce, the 93rd Biochemical Society Harden Conference will be on "Endosomal-lysosomal network dysfunction in neurodegeneration". Come and join us in early September on the beautiful south coast of England. Lots of speaker slots available from submitted abstracts!
Thrilled to share "in situ APEX activation" (iAPEX), a proximity labeling technology for subcellular #proteomics applied to primary #cilia. iAPEX uses an enzymatic cascade, in which a D-amino acid oxidase locally produces H2O2 to activate ascorbate peroxidase.

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."
I agree. I would say too that it is particularly difficult if you have little ones, as their well-being is also somewhat dependent on the grant/publication crapshoot.
Those are most of my days! You are doing great, just keep going!
