With so many great reviews on LDs already out, do we need another? Sarah @cohenlaboratory & I were approached by @NatRevMCB to organize a review on LD heterogeneity and inter-organelle contacts...topics often in reviews, but not a focus. Fun project! nature.com/articles/s41580-0…

So happy to finally see this out! Great work by first authors @A_STEDhammer and @petiaadarska which have shown that cargo flow along post-Golgi routes is driven by a key maturation step where compartments defined by ARF1 nature into recycling endosomes nature.com/articles/s41556-0…

Our new paper: Misfolded proteins activate HSF1 by releasing it from Hsp70. This has been clear in yeast for some time and we find that the mechanism is similar in human cells. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Wilson, @Adam_L_Hughes et al. observe that mitochondrial-derived compartments selectively incorporate proteins from only the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) and robustly sequester both excess and mistargeted proteins into this OMM-enriched domain. hubs.la/Q02L7pSP0

Great to see our preprint out. We uncovered a simple likely mechanism to fuse inner+outer nuclear envelopes to precede nuclear pore complex (NPC) insertion. Our first step was to show that CLCC1 is the long-lost human homologue of Brl1 (previously only known in yeast, protists)

We are proud and excited to share the new study from our lab, led by the amazing @RanenAviner. It uncovers an important pathogenic mechanism causing cellular dysfunction in Huntington's Disease. We hope this work will inspire new and effective therapies nature.com/articles/s41556-0…

Happy to share the preprint of my second postdoc project from the Schuldiner lab where we explored mitochondrial matrix proteome with a unique mtDNA-encoded reporter developed by Roza Kucharczyk and Hubert Becker. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
