The Demetriades Group @UMCG_ERIBA. We study Cell Growth and Nutrient Sensing via the TSC/mTOR network in health and in age-related diseases. Tweets by CD.
📢 I am so incredibly happy and proud about this one!
🔟+ years in the making, 2,5 years since first submission, 1⃣ year since we posted it @biorxivpreprint, it finally found it’s home @NatureCellBio!

⚡️New @biorxivpreprint from our group⚡️
In this manuscript, we provide answers to the long-standing question "Where is mTOR and what is it doing there?", further complementing it with insights about "WHY is it there in the first place?"

@emboreports@JNuchel Mechanistically, GRASP55 is required for the Golgi localization of the complete GOLPH3-LYSET-GNPTAB complex. In the absence of GRASP55, mislocalization of #LYSET and #GNPTAB is linked to their destabilization, in turn causing defective tagging and missorting of lysosomal enzymes.
💥 New publication from our group – final version now online in @emboreports!
Tour de force by Julian Nüchel (@JNuchel), with the amazing support from our collaborators and core facilities!

With the turn of the year, an exciting new chapter has begun in my academic journey. I am beyond excited to share that I joined @UMCG_ERIBA in Groningen this month as a tenured Associate Professor.
I am also thankful to the Max Planck Society @maxplanckpress, @ERC_Research, DFG, @AvHStiftung, and all others who contributed, for their generous funding and continued support that made our work possible.
🎉👩🎓 Proudly celebrating the graduation of a new PhD from the @DemetriadesLab (#8 and last student to graduate from my @MPIAGE group)!
Huge congratulations, @JiyoungPan, on a truly remarkable PhD journey. A well-earned milestone! 👏
