SFB 1324

@sfb1324.bsky.social

The Collaborative Research Center 1324 (SFB 1324) is a DFG-funded interdisciplinary research consortium in Heidelberg, Germany. Our research focuses on the mechanisms and functions of Wnt signaling. https://sfb1324.de/ @dfg.de @uniheidelberg.bsky.social‬

Check out the latest publication of our #SFB1324 members Michael Boutros @michaelboutros.bsky.social and Fillip Port!

Mapping #CRISPR activity patterns with GRACE. In vivo gene editing sometimes happens at unexpected places. Reporters, such as GRACE, light up the cells that have been mutated. Flies are at @vdrc-flies.bsky.social and plasmids @addgene.bsky.social Described here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Figure showing the principle of the GRACE reporter: CRISPR mutagenesis inactivates an uORF that inhibits GFP translation. Below are several examples of Drosophila wing imaginal discs expressing GRACE and Cas12a+ under control of different Gal4 drivers.

This is fantastic! Working in this consortium #SFB1324 has been great support as junior PI, an inspiring atmosphere and exciting science. Thanks to our reviewers for their input, to the #DFG for funding this exceptional Wnt hub, and to our speaker @michaelboutros.bsky.social for driving this forward

Die #DFG fördert zur weiteren Stärkung der #Spitzenforschung an den Hochschulen 9 neue #Sonderforschungsbereiche (SFB). Die Themen reichen von pilzbasierten Baumaterialien über Autoimmunkrankheiten bis zu molekularer Bor-Chemie. Einzelheiten 👉 www.dfg.de/de/service/p...

Die DFG richtet 9 neue Sonderforschungsbereiche ein, mit einer Förderung von 120 Mio. Euro für die erste Förderperiode. Ein neuer Verbund ist SFB/Transregio (TRR), getragen von mehreren Hochschulen. 32 Sonderforschungsbereiche, darunter 15 SFB/Transregio, werden verlängert.
