Such a fun collaboration with @mel-foulon.bsky.social from the TS lab 🤝-👀 We combined dual RNA-Seq 🧬 and advanced imaging 🔬 to uncover how intracellular compartmentalization drives niche-specific metabolic phenotypes in mycobacteria!! Fantastic team effort ✨ #Tbsky #microsky
Mélanie Foulon@mel-foulon.bsky.social · 6mo ago🚨 New preprint! Together with @carobarisch.bsky.social lab, we investigated how intracellular compartmentalization shapes lipid acquisition in mycobacteria Interestingly, deleting one FACL enzyme (FACL6) revealed striking compartment-dependent phenotypes 🔬 Check it out: doi.org/10.64898/202...
