Youmian Yan, @IanofBristol, @nieminm et al. define quantitative parameters underlying the strength of mitochondrial-targeting presequences, and demonstrate that yeast require strong presequences to facilitate select metabolic pathways in #mitochondria. hubs.la/Q03-1x5l0




A MILLION thank yous to everyone who joined us for the 2025 ASMB Conference. We had a great time talking science, catching up, social activities, and of course all those amazing presentations!! We can't do it without the sponsors so one last shout out... Thank you!!!




Another wonderful collaboration with @alanbrownhms lab. The Zhang lab together with @PolinaLishko lab (co-first author @QingweiN) contribute the doublet microtubule structure from Crithidia fasciculata, a model organism that infects mosquitoes. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Thrilled to share our preprint on the structure of a nautilus-like assembly of membrane proteins, HflK/C, that regulate the FtsH AAA protease activity, a key component of bacterial inner membrane protein degradation machinery. (1/n) bit.ly/4dotfpJ


So incredibly happy to announce I have been awarded a 2-year Predoctoral Fellowship from the @AHAScience. Thank you to my amazing PI (@nieminm), co-mentor (@bnfinck), rec letter writers, and @The_DataDragon for all the support, feedback, and encouragement during this process.🫀🥳
