📢📢New work from Dr Linh Dang in my group - analysis of physiological human autophagic flux in leukocytes. Surprises related to ageing, sex effects, and nutrient sensing! @sahmriAU #autophagy #aging

Cell-type specific autophagy in human leukocytes https://t.co/sc7c2rN6cq

[Rapé Lab @RapeLab]

Excited to reveal specific reactive oxygen species as sentinel molecules that control localized protein degradation at #mitochondria to adjust the electron transport chain, with many implications for ROS in development and disease. @UCBerkeley @MTI_UCB

[LechtenbergLab @LechtenbergLab]

Excited to share our latest preprint on @biorxivpreprint: "The RBR E3 ubiquitin ligase HOIL-1 can ubiquitinate diverse non-protein substrates in vitro".

Did we conceive the structure of neurons incorrectly all these years?
https://t.co/necvywDe3w @NatureNeuro
not smooth, cylindrical strands but a string of pearls?
it's controversial

@MuenchLab @goetheuni @IBC2_GU @EMBO_YIP @ERC_Research Fantastic news and richly deserved!

[Miratul Muqit @miratul_neuro]

It was great to have nearly 120 scientists gather for 20th anniversary @BiochemSoc @ASAP_Research meeting in London to mark discovery of #PINK1 mutations in Parkinson's patients by Nick Wood @MDC_IoN_UCL @UCLBrainScience in 2004. 🙏also to @CureParkinsonsT @ParkinsonUK
