Have you published lipid-protein interactome data? Please let us know, we’d love to include it in the repository. The goal is to build a centralized hub for the scientific community. Thanks to Gaelen Guzman, a graduate student/postdoc in the lab who built it from scratch.

Huge thanks to my former PhD student and then postdoc Gaelen Guzman - this wouldn’t exist without his drive and craftsmanship. Also, big thanks to Carsten Schultz, André Nadler, and Baskin Baskin for their support and contributions.

Our paper on The Lipid Interactome is now published, and the database is open: lnkd.in/g-swyT2a Why you should care: Lipid–protein interactome studies are exploding, but the data is scattered across papers, inconsistent formats, and silos making it hard to compare/reuse.

Thrilled to share that my new paper has been published at @NatureComms @NaturePortfolio. We conducted a genome-wide CRISPR screen in Toxoplasma gondii and identified GRA38, a dense granule protein, as a key regulator of lipid homeostasis in Toxo. nature.com/articles/s4146…
