Excited to share our new preprint from @RutterLab, identifying a melanosomal tyrosine transporter! biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Happy to share our new preprint from @RutterLab. To understand how genes are controlled, we developed a method we call TRoUT-FISH, using CRISPR + RNA-FISH. We found that glycolytic gene expression is fine-tuned by lineage specifying transcription factors. biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

UMDF and @AusMito congratulate all of the 2026 Research Grant Award recipients! Read our full announcement to learn more about how this research will help advance the field of #mitochondrialdisease research. umdf.org/research-grant…







I'm excited to present a small method project of mine from @RutterLab! Here we designed a dual-purification system to isolate mitochondrial subpopulations based on their proximity to membranous organelles. All constructs will be available on Addgene soon! journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/do…



So delighted that my first ever first author paper is now online @MolecularCell ! 🥳 🪔We reveal a mechanism that enables lysosomal mTORC1 to decide: ‘should I stay or should I go?’ Check it out here👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 cell.com/molecular-cell…





⚡️New @biorxivpreprint from our group⚡️ In this manuscript, we provide answers to the long-standing question "Where is mTOR and what is it doing there?", further complementing it with insights about "WHY is it there in the first place?" biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thread below👇

Paper alert!!! 🚨🔥 Mitochondrial lactate in the heart!? Say what!? Congratulations to @molecularpepsi, @joevisker and @jn_velascosilva on an amazing collaboration with the @gsducker and @StavrosDrakos labs. Check out the thread below! @HHMINEWS @UofUBiochem @NEH_CVRTI @UofUDMRC
