Great honor that our recent work on Spastin recognizing microtubule lattice defects was picked for the Biomedical Picture of the Day. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...
Biomedical Picture of the Day BPoD@bpodaily.bsky.social · 7mo agoEnzyme spastin responds to cytoskeletal instability caused by microtubule defects as a signal to sever microtubules 📹 Cordula Reuther & Paula Santos-Otte et al @bcube-tud.bsky.social in @jcellsci.bsky.social ➡️ bpod.org.uk/archive/2026...
How can #diatoms move and turn so fast in their glass-like shells? A team at B CUBE led by Dr. Poulsen @nic-poulsen.bsky.social and Prof. Diez @stefandiezlab.bsky.social has cracked the code: they steer by shifting the contact point with the surface ⚙️ Read our news ➡️ tud.link/zc6u4q #CMCBnews
🥳 Excited to share our #diatom work out in @pnas.org. In a great collaboration with @nic-poulsen.bsky.social and @ulrichschwarz.bsky.social we show that diatoms modulate the curvature of their paths by dynamic switching of their cell–substrate contact sites. doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2506122123
