@NicastroLab@reeselab1@UTSWNews@CellUtsw Extremely grateful for the opportunity to work on this #cryoET study of the #apicomplexan invasion machinery with such an incredible team! 🙌 Special thanks to my mentor Dany and our fantastic collaborators, Wil and Dr. Michael Reese from @reeselab1. 🎊🔬

Excited to share our cryo-EM structure of gas vesicles, providing buoyancy to microbes (and recently also genetically encoded ultrasound contrast to scientists)! https://t.co/eDagsHkeOO
Congrats to everone involved: @CryoTUD, Wiel Evers, Dion Terwiel, @DMarescalab.
Thank you Mike for the perfect opportunity of collaboration! Such a pleasure to work with @BiochemSean It is very excited to see #cryoET could visualize lipid droplets in different phase transitions in their native environments!
New preprint! Here we dissect how cells create "liquid-crystalline lattice" lipid droplets (LCL-LDs).
How does fat crystallize, you may ask?
We find TAG lipolysis causes sterol-esters in LDs to transition from a disordered to a liquid-crystalline phase.

Congrats to #UTSW cell biologist Daniela Nicastro, Ph.D., for receiving @ASCBiology's 2020 Women in Cell Biology Mid-Career Award for Excellence in Research. Learn more about her scientific pursuits: https://t.co/SL7pX2s7X7 #utswscience#cellbiology
Very excited to have the best postdoc presentation award in the UTSW Cell Biology retreat. Thanks @slschmid_lab and every member in the Nicastro lab for excellent advices in my practice talk.
Check the new method from our lab which could bring cryo-electron tomography of axonemes to 12 Å resolution! Structure of the ciliary axoneme at nanometer resolution reconstructed by TYGRESS https://t.co/FAOqcEfXeP
