We are excited to share a new preprint from our amazing postdoc @alexjbott ! Alex designed a new CRISPR screening platform called TRoUT-FISH to identify transcriptional activators and repressors of various genes of interest! Check out his tweetorial below!

[Alex Bott @alexjbott]

Happy to share our new preprint from @RutterLab. To understand how genes are controlled, we developed a method we call TRoUT-FISH, using CRISPR + RNA-FISH. We found that glycolytic gene expression is fine-tuned by lineage specifying transcription factors.

The field has sought this factor since the 90s. Detective Cunningham on the case, see the tweetorial!

It's a two-fer Tuesday. We are ecstatic to share this preprint from our amazing postdoc @CNFXC. Corey solved a long-standing question in the field of transport biology, identifying SLC16A6 as a melanosomal tyrosine transporter.

[Corey N Cunningham @CNFXC]

Excited to share our new preprint from @RutterLab, identifying a melanosomal tyrosine transporter!

This is a bit of a tale of two stories: we’re deeply intrigued by the biology and we think that this method is incredibly useful. It fills a gap in the field to ask gene-centric regulatory questions. We hope you enjoy the preprint, reach out with feedback!

Congrats to our superstar postdoc, @narbonaperez, for being awarded a UMDF Postdoctoral Fellow Grant! #Congrats #MitoMonday #UMDF 🎉🎉🎉

Many thanks to @UMDF for supporting Alvaro's promising work!

[United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation @UMDF]

UMDF and @AusMito congratulate all of the 2026 Research Grant Award recipients! Read our full announcement to learn more about how this research will help advance the field of #mitochondrialdisease research.

Two for Thursday: We want to highlight another fantastic collaboration, this time with William Oldham's lab at Brown University and our @N8Krah, demonstrating that MCT4 is a druggable target in pulmonary fibrosis. Check it out here: https://t.co/W5a3hERl30 @UofUHematology @huntsmancancer

Congrats to everyone involved!

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

We want to highlight a new collaborative project, led by @yliu_UofU lab with help from our superstar @UofUHematology Fellow @N8Krah, on the implementation of a novel CRISPR-Cas system to selectively kill cancer cells! #RisingStar #CRISPR

[Nate Krah @N8Krah]

🧬 New paper out in @Nature! We used CRISPR to selectively kill cancer cells based on a single-letter mutation in their RNA. The story I want to highlight: KRAS — one of the most notorious drivers of human cancer. A short thread on what we found 🧵

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

Exciting news from the @RutterLab! Our amazing lab techs got accepted into graduate school! "Congrats to Christina (@ChristinaVolz22) and Zihan (@ZMonshad). We're excited to watch them continue their science journey!" -JR @UofUBiochem @UUHSResearch @hhmi_science 🧪🎉

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

We are excited to announce that our recent collaborative paper, led by the superstar duo Rebekah Nicholson and Luis Cedeño-Rosario, which identified how ceramides alter mitochondrial structure and function after acute kidney injury was selected to participate in #STATMadness!

[Fusion Conferences @Fusion_Conf]

#RedoxBio25 kicked off yesterday with a fantastic opening talk from Jared Rutter (@RutterLab) on “Evolution of Metabolic Regulation.”
A great start to an exciting conference!

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

Happy Halloween from the Rutter Lab! 👻🎃

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

We are excited to announce our 2025 @UofUDMRC Postdoctoral Rising Stars in Metabolism Symposium! This is truly a unique opportunity to network, present your research, and enjoy the breathtaking views that Salt Lake City has to offer. Deadline is May 15th, 2025. Please share!

[Lyssiotis Lab @LyssiotisLab]

A seriously awesome event (despite my tardy post)!! Thanks @NYASciences, @nyugrossman, fellow organizers (@lydfinley, @MarcusDGon), the *speakers for sharing awesome (and unpublished) science, and the attendees for literally packing the house! (Every seat reserved) 😃

*Speakers: @KivancBirsoy, @Chiolaboratory, @HaigisLab, @IntlekoferLab, @ThalesPapaG, @RutterLab, @DanWahlMD, @EileenWhitePhD

[Amit Rai, PhD @amit_k_rai17]

Fantastic talk today by Prof. Jared Rutter (@RutterLab) at @katztemplemed! Grateful for the insightful discussion on the future of Metabolite-RNA interactions and MIDAS. Truly enlightening! 🔬📷 #ScienceTalk #RNA #Metabolism.

The Rutter Lab is attending @ASBMB! If you are interested in cell metabolism, check out Jared, @queren_alcca and @luisci22 research talks in the sessions below. See you in Chicago! Also, you can follow now the Rutter Lab on Bluesky! @UofUBiochem @HHMINEWS @cziscience @BWFUND

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

@AWartiovaara Thanks, Anu! Indeed, we are very excited for this symposium.

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

Hello everyone! I am helping to organize a one-day symposium on fluorescent metabolite biosensors and their use in metabolism research. It will be May 12-13 and associated with the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory “Mechanisms of Metabolic Signaling” Symposium. Our field needs to be able to visualize metabolism with spatial and temporal resolution and this symposium will explore what to do and how to do it, with experts in metabolism and biosensor development and use. Please join us! https://t.co/8QfiKTCeDs -JR

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

🚨 New paper alert from the @RutterLab!!! Check out this new technique developed by our very own postdoc @CNFXC 🎉🎉🎉 Congrats to Corey and the whole team! @UofUBiochem @HHMINEWS

[Corey N Cunningham @CNFXC]

I'm excited to present a small method project of mine from @RutterLab! Here we designed a dual-purification system to isolate mitochondrial subpopulations based on their proximity to membranous organelles. All constructs will be available on Addgene soon!
