Stoked to share TWO preprints on mitochondrial pearling! 🎉
We uncover how spontaneous #mitochondria pearling drives #mtDNA nucleoid distribution (doi.org/10.1101/2024...), and
@gavsturm.bsky.social
et al. dissect the biophysics behind it (doi.org/10.1101/2024...). Details below! 🔬🧵🧪
It's not #FluorescenceFriday but unexpectedly beautiful data should always be celebrated 💚 #PKMO -stained #mitochondria cristae in #STED

Another year and another group of brilliant young students preparing for the International Biology Olympiad #IBO 💪☘️

Thank you for making teaching so fun and inspiring, bon courage à tous, and most importantly: enjoy it!

What complex are you if you have a very versatile company in close proximity? The MICOS Complex.
We present the MINDNet: Proximity Proteomics revealing the nanodomain interactome in the mitochondrial inner membrane, done by the talented Yulia and team.

How do #stemcells integrate information to coordinate fate decisions? Delighted to finally see our work showing how growth factors regulate the mechano-osmotic state of the #nucleus and #chromatin to control #pluripotency exit out! www.nature.com/articles/s41... see 🧵 👇
Mechano-osmotic signals control chromatin state and fate transitions in pluripotent stem cells - Nature Cell Biology
McCreery, Stubb et al. show that mechano-osmotic changes in the nucleus induce general transcriptional repression and prime chromatin for cell fate transitions by relieving repression of specific differentiation genes.

In case you haven't heard, #Argentinian scientists are live-streaming their deep-sea mission with real-time interactive commentary.

It's genius, mesmerising, and triggering huge public interest and support for #science funding 🐙🧪 And the memes are great! #CONICET #MarDelPlataCanyon

Is there still a reason for dumping figures at the end of manuscripts instead of in-text, even for #BioRxiv preprints? My scroll-finger is exhausted... 🙏🧪📜
