Glad to see our Contact-FP membrane contact site sensors published today in @ContactCTC : journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…
Preprint alert! We are happy to introduce Contact-FP, a suite of probes for studying #MembraneContactSite dynamics. This was an amazing team effort led by Research Associate @GregoryMiner18 and postbacc Sidney Smith 1/11 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Our work is the cover of the November issue of @NatureCancer!
Delighted to announce that our paper on somatic evolution of marine transmissible cancers is finally out in @NatureCancer. For 7 years we investigated a marine leukemia that propagates through marine water to infect cockles in the Coasts of Europe 🤯

Excited to share our newest work @DiBio_UniPD @VIMMPadua . We showed that statins administration sensitizes PC cells to ferroptosis (not a shocker). We attack this drug-associated vulnerability with organic seleno compounds sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Thank you for coming to my poster yesterday. We just started the project, so the data were super preliminary, but I got many advices to help us out. I appreciate it, and got motivated.

Very interesting: mTORC2-NDRG2-CDC42 axis drives mitochondrial fission indipendently of DRP1
☕️NEW: Singh & co show that fasting or lipid availability stimulates mTORC2 activity in the liver, leading to phosphorylation of NDRG1 and NDRG1–CDC42-mediated mitochondrial fission.

Mitochondrial MFN2 tethers mitochondria to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to allow phospholipid transfer, but the ER-expressed binding partner is unknown—until now.
@LabScorrano discovered that the binding partner is an ER-specific splice variant of MFN2. ow.ly/ygmB50OZYmz
