Check out our preprint on the structural mechanisms of how LEM2 and ESCRTs seal the nuclear envelope. Awesome collaboration with @karenpalacior.bsky.social who brought my structures to life 💃🔬❄️🌀 @hummerlab.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Lipids build the membranes of all cells, but identifying their precise functions is extremely challenging. Here’s our attempt to change that: How to find and understand lipid-protein interactions, by Katelyn Cook & company. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Seeking a post-doc for the LaJoie lab at the Human Technopole, Milan, Italy! We are looking for candidates from the fields of biochemistry, cell biology, and proteomics, who are interested in studying protein interactions of the nucleus 🤓 lnkd.in/dTG2CgXF

I am extremely excited that my first first-author paper from my PhD is finally out 😆!! We developed a new CLEM workflow to measure lipid densities at the nanoscale. So if you are into lipids and super-resolution imaging approaches, this one is for you: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Visualizing suborganellar lipid distribution using correlative light and electron microscopy - Nature Cell Biology

Lennartz et al. introduce a correlative light and electron microscopy workflow, Lipid-CLEM, combining near-native lipid probes and on-section labelling via click chemistry. Lipid-CLEM quantitatively a...

My first manuscript in MPI colours! With @tothpetroczylab.bsky.social, we show that AlphaFold PAE-derived contact probabilities are well calibrated to the fraction of true interface contacts across experimentally determined protein dimers. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Out today in @nature.com: Together with the Honigmann, Shevchenko, Drobot and Hof labs, we present a general workflow for imaging the localization and transport of individual lipids in cells and mapping their metabolism. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Happy to share the first paper of my postdoc and happy to have been part of the team!

Identifying functional motifs in disordered regions is challenging. We gave it a try. Check out SHARK-capture, an alignment-free method to detect SLiMs. Congrats Chi Fung Willis Chow @swlenz.bsky.social et al. @mpi-cbg.de @csbdresden.bsky.social @poldresden.bsky.social doi.org/10.1002/pro....

Are lipids actively sorted during clathrin mediated endocytosis like proteins? @mathilda95.bsky.social addresses this key open question together with our collaborators from the Honigmann and Modes labs using a new Lipid-STED workflow. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It’s incredibly hard to study lipids in biological membranes on the nanoscale. You need near-perfect information on both membrane ultrastructure and lipid density, which usually isn’t attainable. Lipid-CLEM brought to you by @mathilda95.bsky.social changes that. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our PICNIC tool predicts condensate-proteins regardless of their structural disorder across organisms @naturecomms.bsky.social. Congratulations to @annaha-poetry-art.bsky.social for developing the algorithm and to Hari @hymanlab.bsky.social for the experiments! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

PICNIC accurately predicts condensate-forming proteins regardless of their structural disorder across organisms - Nature Communications

Here the authors report PICNIC (Proteins Involved in CoNdensates In Cells), a machine learning algorithm that predicts approximately 40–60% of proteins form condensates in various organisms, showing n...
