We are excited to share our latest work: #toxoplasma #lipin channels the flux of host lipids between #lipid storage and membrane biogenesis for division, preventing #lipotoxicity. Superb work @sheena_dass @ParaFrap @Serenashun@IFCPAR all the team! https://t.co/CngEDo26xx

[Mebratu Bitew @Tgondii2020]

Big thanks to the whole team for the hard work on this one. This work wouldn't have been possible without the incredible support and guidance from my PI @SaeijlabUCDavis and amazing contributions from all co-authors: @Yifan_Wang_Toxo @ApicoLipid A great way to wrap up the year

[Mebratu Bitew @Tgondii2020]

Thrilled to share that my new paper has been published at @NatureComms @NaturePortfolio. We conducted a genome-wide CRISPR screen in Toxoplasma gondii and identified GRA38, a dense granule protein, as a key regulator of lipid homeostasis in Toxo. https://t.co/4biceq4hTd

Ukrainian fencer Yulia Bakastova has defeated a Russian fencer Sophia Velikaya, who also a major in the Russian army) at a tournament in Tbilisi.

Velikaya was a trusted person of Putin at the 2024 "elections" in Russia and has been on Ukrainian sanctions list for her connection with the Russian army.

Despite that, International Fencing Federation allowed Velikaya and 40 other Russian and Belarus athletes to participate in the world championship with a "neutral" status.

Ukrainian Fencing Federation has issued a protest regarding these athletes being allowed to compete.

🚨New paper out! 🚨
The apicoplast is an essential plastid retaining many crucial metabolic pathways 🦠🏭 However, bypassing all of them makes the apicoplast dispensable!
