New preprint out! 🚀 biorxiv.org/content/10.648… We mapped how septins organise infection in the rice blast fungus—and found they are far more dynamic than previously thought. Thread 👇 #FungalPathogenesis #CellBiology #septins

A new study from our group, led by @iris_eisermann , of the septin interactome during appressorium development, revealing many new interactors and significantly widening the biological function of septins in fungal pathogenesis. 👇 @TheSainsburyLab

Really grateful to all co-authors who made this possible 🙏 @nehasahu486_ @mariselagarduno Paul Derbyshire @Frank_Menke @WeibinMa @talbotlabTSL Happy to hear any thoughts or feedback! 🌱🍄

This rewiring is functionally important. We identify septin-associated proteins linked to virulence, including Msi1 - a BAR-domain protein that localises at the appressorium base and is required for efficient infection.

Excited to share our review in @CDDPress! We explore how cell death 💀 is regulated in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae and summarize its role in appressorium development. 🌾🍄🔬 @talbotlabTSL @TheSainsburyLab See the full review here: nature.com/articles/s4141…

It’s a wrap! The next two Molecular Biology of Fungi Meetings will be in Braunschweig @tuBraunschweig and Munich @TU_Muenchen co-organized by André Fleissner and Philipp Benz. Many thanks to Frank Kempken and his team @kieluni for the nice meeting in Kiel #MBF2024

Our very own @mariselagarduno presenting her new findings and really cool microscopy 🔬about eisosomes in Magnaporthe oryzae @talbotlabTSL at Molecular Biology of Fungi in Kiel

@iris_eisermann presenting her beautiful and HUGE high-throughput septin interactome study in the blast fungus at the Conference of Molecular Biology of Fungi in Kiel! 😎👍

Are you interested in nutrient transport and its regulation in arbuscular mycorrhiza symbiosis between plants and fungi? We are looking for two Postdocs for the ERC project SymbioticExchange: mpimp-golm.mpg.de/2772979/job_fu… @MPIMP_Potsdam #plantsciencejob

Here's @TheSainsburyLab gang at #FungalGRC24

Thank you for having me! It’s always nice to come back home 🫶🍄🇲🇽 It was an stimulating discussion and I’m very grateful for the feedback!

Come and join us at the Gordon Conference this summer- Our theme is Fungal Communication in all its varied and wonderful forms @AnnaSelmecki and I look forward to seeing you there! Check out the program. #Fungal24
