🚨 New from our lab (est. 2020) — now published in Nature Communications! 🧬We uncover a surprising link between the v-ATPaseand mitochondrial function: Mild v-ATPase inhibition restores cell fitness under mitochondrial mistranslation stress nature.com/articles/s4146… (Thread ⬇️)

🔥This opens a path toward targeting v-ATPase with precision, with implications from cancer to mitochondrial disease.

Mild v-ATPase inhibition boosts ΔΨm and restores cell fitness under mitochondrial mistranslation stress — even in patient-derived fibroblasts. 🔬A major effort led by Geoffray, revealing how cells deploy extra-organellar control to survive mitochondrial dysfunction.

Together with @mito_oncogene, today we report in Nature Genetics a peculiar + exciting discovery: positive selection of mutations to mitochondrial ribosomal RNA in cancer. Led by Sonia Boscenco, Jacqueline Tait-Mulder, and Minsoo Kim nature.com/articles/s4158…

Local de novo synthesis of serine delays mitochondrial muscle disease progression. Tour de force work of Christopher Jackson and ⁦@marmyleva_ana⁩ Anastasiia Marmyleva. Congrats Anastasiia especially for your first 1st author paper! ⁦@ASW_lab⁩ cell.com/cell-reports/f…

✨Excited to share our new paper in @CellReports! ✨We show how cells rely on self-made serine to protect themselves under mitochondrial stress. Huge thanks to my mentors @CBJacksonLab and @AWartiovaara 🙏 cell.com/cell-reports/f…

@coffee_lipe Beware of age-induced astigmatism.

Everyone knows how important and significant microscopy is to me. My new buddy :)

Our preprint show that knock-in mice with drastically reduced levels respirasomes have normal OXPHOS function and no obvious phenotypes! Very unexpected results indeed! Presented the story at EuroMit. Thanks all coauthors for a very nice collaboration! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

TransitID is out today in Cell! This is a proximity labeling method for unbiased discovery of endogenous proteins that traffick from a defined “source” location to a defined “destination” location. TransitID uses sequential labeling by TurboID in the source, followed by a chase period (minutes to hours) and then 1-minute APEX tagging in the destination compartment. Proteins tagged by both enzymes are enriched with streptavidin and anti-fluorescein antibody, and identified by mass spec. We explore 4 intracellular and intercellular applications of TransitID: - discovery of locally translated mitochondrial proteins (translated at OMM, then imported into mito matrix) - mapping proteins whose cytoplasm-to-nucleus shuttling is dampened by stress - discovery of proteins that transit between nucleolus & stress granules during stress & stress recovery - analysis of proteins that traffic intercellularly bw tumor cells & macrophages Work of amazingly talented co-first authors @WeiQinChemBio and @CheahJoleen, and collaborators Steve Carr @namude & Paul Taylor authors.elsevier.com/a/1hKLcL7PXmcqA
