My PhD work is finally out in @JCellBiol! 🎉
Reach out if you want to know more 😉 – at Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal
Teixeira et al @i3S_UPorto identify the onconeural antigen CDR2 as ER-localized adaptor for the microtubule-based motor cytoplasmic dynein-1 & show that CDR2 contributes to ER organization thru. its interaction w/ the integral ER membrane protein kinectin hubs.la/Q03wGLyX0

Excited to share our latest study! We discovered that maintaining mammalian oocytes involves extraordinary protein longevity. These proteins support key functions like proteostasis, the cytoskeleton, and mitochondria. Our findings offer new insights into reproductive aging.
Women are born with all their oocytes, which need to stay viable for decades to ensure fertility. How are they maintained for that long?
Our latest research in @NatureCellBio reveals that oocyte maintenance involves exceptional protein longevity. nature.com/articles/s41556-0… (1/9)

Delighted to finally share the last piece of work I did in my PhD lab on the yeast fatty acid synthase. It was a lot of fun trying to figure out how to resolve the different states of this complex during its synthesis cycle (1/5). doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2023.…

Some simple EM processing tasks can be overly complicated, so I wrote starparser to help me out. Sharing it here in case others find it useful. For example, you can remove particles with specific orientations, among 40+ other command-line options. github.com/sami-chaaban/star…
