Our cover image shows mutant S. pombe cells lacking ER-PM tethers, with cortical ER in magenta and Duc1-mNeonGreen in cyan. Discover more in the article from Alaina Willet et al. @Gould_Lab.

Alaina Willet, Kathleen Gould and team @Gould_Lab find that Duc1 influences plasma membrane lipid composition and cytokinetic ring anchoring. #OpenAccess

@Gould_Lab report that the FHA domain in one SIP component is necessary & sufficient for SIP spindle pole body (SPB) targeting & function. Cell viability requires SPB SIP localization is transient. Residues unique to its catalytic subunit...

send your awesome #cleavage stories to @ASCBiology #cellbio2024 for our 8th biannual Cytokinesis subgroup! (stable actomyosin rings and network reconstitution work welcome too!)
please RT for all those last-minute #cell #Biology -ists out there burning the midnight arc lamp!

[Dimitris Vavylonis @DVavylonis]

Once again we organize the 8th Frontiers in Cytokinesis subgroup at #CellBio2024 in San Diego. The deadline to submit an abstract to be considered for a talk is August 6. Cytokinesis folks, please consider presenting!

[MohanBalasubramanian @SPOREMOHAN]

In the lab. 8 am Sunday to see the outcome of a genetic screen in S japonicus, made popular by ⁦@alebenoit⁩ Reminds me of the time in ⁦@Gould_Lab⁩ Lab meeting tomorrow and want to present my work.

[Gould Lab @Gould_Lab]

New paper out now with a model for how pericentrin is anchored at the centrosome and spindle pole body! https://t.co/URceFIjO3a

I have a post-doctoral position to measure cytokinetic forces in collaboration with Justin Molloy in Warwick.

Check out our most recent pub! Transient PP2A SIP complex localization to mitotic SPBs for SIN inhibition is mediated solely by the Csc1 FHA domain | Molecular Biology of the Cell https://t.co/BjW8XmCEpj

Read her micropub here on Spg1 alleles in S. pombe!

[Gould Lab @Gould_Lab]

We are super proud of a recent micropub because the first author is a *high school student* !! Anna Bowman Fletcher (left) spent last semester in the Gould lab through a course at @HarpethHall . Huge thanks to Lesley Turner (in cat sweatshirt) for her mentorship of Anna!

[Gould Lab @Gould_Lab]

Anna was also recently awarded first place within the Cellular and Molecular Biology division of Middle Tennessee Science and Engineering Fair - and if that wasn't enough - she was also the alternate grand prize winner!!

[Gould Lab @Gould_Lab]

@PomBase We will have one more of those here soon, too!!

[Gould Lab @Gould_Lab]

A micropub inspired by @ValWood5 wanting to know the mutations for all the S. pombe alleles in @PomBase - we made a small dent 😅

Our newest CK1 publication is now out in @ScienceAdvances headed by @KinaseQueen ! We built upon our model of CK1 function by investigating the role of the C-terminal tail in substrate specificity. https://t.co/y2W8w1wx8s

Another set of temperature sensitive alleles that didn’t fit into a recent pub. Special thanks to undergraduate student Bita Tavafoghi for her hard work finishing this up!

[Gould Lab @Gould_Lab]

We made a set of ts alleles for a recent project but some of them didn’t end up fitting into the final paper. We wanted to make sure to publish them though! Special thanks to former undergrad @isaac__howard for all his hard work on this!
