New @ChowLab paper! This is former grad student @ND_Russell’s last paper. We started this during the pandemic as a filler for not being in lab. we describe a pipeline for predicting ER stress related TF binding sites 1/? academic.oup.com/g3journal/a…

Thanks for highlighting @ND_Russell’s work!

Russell and Chow use a mouse model to investigate how the effect of genetic variation changes with cellular stress across different tissues and find genes that respond to ER stress in a tissue- and/or genotype-dependent manner. #G3Journal @ClementYChow | bit.ly/3c5D1mq

ANOTHER ONE (thread alert)! Another exciting new preprint from the @chowlab! A really fun study led by our postdoc @HansMDalton and in collaboration with the @perrimonlab, @smohrfly, and Ram v. 1/ biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

A genome-wide CRISPR screen identifies the glycosylation enzyme DPM1 as a modifier of DPAGT1...

Partial loss-of-function mutations in glycosylation pathways underlie a set of rare diseases called Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDGs). In particular, DPAGT1-CDG is caused by mutations in...

Some students are quiet not because they’re unengaged or unprepared but because they value the discussion so much that they’re willing to contribute only their most urgent and fully thought-out ideas. It’s taken me, a talkative person, a long time to realize that.

Here is the next iteration of the "cells to scale" poster, now featuring microtubules! Thanks to all who contributed (names listed at bottom of image). Want to learn more about these organisms? There's a Gordon Conference for that! grc.org/plant-and-microbial-…
Katrina Velle@KatrinaVelle8 Dec 2019
Is your model organism feeling left out? Or maybe you prefer tubulin over actin? Email me ([email protected]) with a DNA + Actin or Tubulin stained cell! Please include a 5 um scale bar, the name of the organism/cell type, and a name for the acknowledgements. Thanks!
