Check out this stunning animation by @janetiwasa (in collaboration with @SamReckPeterson), showcasing our model of how various components come together to form active dynein complexes capable of transporting cellular cargo.

Our work on how the lysosomal adaptor JIP3, and regulator LIS1 activate the dynein motor protein is now out in @ScienceMagazine ! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Many thanks to our reviewers and editor for their valuable input.

Excited to share our latest work with the bullock lab! We looked at how diverse mRNAs get selected for subcellular localization and it turns out that a single protein can recognize different RNA elements using shared features that weren’t apparent before. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My PhD work is finally out in @JCellBiol! 🎉 Reach out if you want to know more 😉
Journal of Cell Biology@JCellBiol

Teixeira et al @i3S_UPorto identify the onconeural antigen CDR2 as ER-localized adaptor for the microtubule-based motor cytoplasmic dynein-1 & show that CDR2 contributes to ER organization thru. its interaction w/ the integral ER membrane protein kinectin hubs.la/Q03wGLyX0

A one day meeting on Friday 6th December covering all aspects (and scales) of Structural Biology.  Lots of talk slots to be selected from abstracts.  Deadline for abstracts is this Friday (15th Nov). bit.ly/4fDEqfZ

My first PhD student, Emma Hanford (nee Gleave), made some cysteine-lite dynein constructs in 2013. 11 years later, thanks to MinFlux, Joseph Slivka and @Yildiz_Lab they have been used in a nice biorxiv paper. doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

Excited to share our latest study! We discovered that maintaining mammalian oocytes involves extraordinary protein longevity. These proteins support key functions like proteostasis, the cytoskeleton, and mitochondria. Our findings offer new insights into reproductive aging.

Women are born with all their oocytes, which need to stay viable for decades to ensure fertility. How are they maintained for that long? Our latest research in @NatureCellBio reveals that oocyte maintenance involves exceptional protein longevity. nature.com/articles/s4155… (1/9)

In yesterday's #journalclub, we had a look at the interesting mechanism by which the UNC-104 motor (Kinesin-3 KIF1A homologue in C. elegans) is stabilised on Rab-3-containing synaptic vesicles - by Bhan and colleagues biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Today in #journalclub we delved into the structure of the Flotillin complex. Fascinating insights into how this cage complex could induce membrane curvature and provide a sealed diffusion barrier, connecting membrane systems. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
