The Fry Lab

The Fry Lab at the University of Leicester, UK. We are interested in the regulation of the cytoskeleton by the NEK kinase family in cancer. Tweets lab-wide.

Brilliant online departmental PhD symposium @LeicStructBio @uniofleicester made even better by two of our PhD students @KellieLucken and @_SarahPashley winning the best poster and best image prizes respectively! Thanks to all involved.

Great to see this exciting new work from @baylisslab on EML4-ALK liquid droplets, signalling and inhibitor action. Brilliant work from all involved.

Excited to announce a new preprint from the lab. The fusion #kinase EML4-ALK forms liquid droplets in lung cancer cells!

Our latest paper is now published in @J_Cell_Sci - ‘EML4-ALK V3 oncogenic fusion proteins promote microtubule stabilization and accelerated migration through NEK9 and NEK7’. Congratulations to all involved in this great, collaborative project!
