Out on @ScienceAdvances our paper describing how Alzheimer's Tau fibrils escape autophagy quality control! https://t.co/dPPYzwEgWe🧵below, featuring some challenging biochemistry on patient-derived protein aggregates
The new Vienna BioCenter Interdisciplinary Postdoctoral Program (VIP³) is here! We have 16 fully-funded positions for scientists with a PhD in biology, chemistry, physics, bioinformatics etc.
The call opens on 1st June.

🚨 New paper alert from @martenssascha!🚨
We explore how transmembrane cargo receptors initiate selective autophagy. Through biochemical reconstitutions, we discover a new autophagosome biogenesis pathway with implications for therapeutic interventions.

Artificially tethering TAX1BP1 to fibrils could be a promising therapeutic treatment. Also, we can expand our approach to other protein aggregation diseases and biological networks. There is a lot of biology to be discovered! FINALLY:
🆕 publication! Aggregates of Tau proteins are seen in Alzheimer's 🧠 @FerrariiLuca, postdoc with @martens_sascha, shows in @ScienceAdvances how monomeric and pathological Tau are targeted differently by the autophagy machinery ➡️ https://t.co/fqcXFh9UyK

Excited to share our latest preprint on how the switch from cargo collection to its sequestration in autophagosomes is regulated in aggrephagy #Autophagy#Biochemistry#CellBiology
