We are interested in the #cell_biology of #autophagy, #mitochondria, and #ageing.

[Graef Lab @GraefLab]

Excited to start this new adventure with fantastic colleagues! If you are interested in working on the molecular mechanisms of autophagy and cellular ageing, please contact me!

[Cornell CALS @CornellCALS]

Martin Graef (@GraefLab), new assistant professor in our Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, joined CALS this spring to study how cells maintain their homeostasis and function under diverse stresses. Welcome Martin! @CornellMBG https://t.co/EnOvk19fSf

[Hurley Lab @TheHurleyLab]

Proud of new work https://t.co/VVD4eyFOlc from the lab by Zhicheng (Chen) Cui @Chen3dem using single-particle cryo-EM on liposomes to show how mTORC1 integrates nutrient and growth factor signaling at lysosomes, collab. w/ @G__Napolitano, A. Esposito, and A. Ballabio.

Congratulations, Costas! Such a beautiful paper.

[Demetriades Lab @DemetriadesLab]

📢 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!

Open access 👇

[Wollert Lab @WollertLab]

Eat less to live longer? #Autophagy degrades damaged or toxic cellular material to keep cells in good shape. We discovered how #ATG16L1 shapes phagophores. Our article was published today in @NatureSMB ! thanks to all the authors !! Check it out:

Beautiful work from the Lackner Lab as always!

[American Society for Cell Biology @ASCBiology]

From MBoC
Temporal control of contact site formation reveals a relationship between mitochondrial division and Num1-mediated mitochondrial tethering. @LLLackner developed systems to control the formation and depletion of mitochondria-PM contact sites.
