The secret life of LIRs: Binding to Atg8-family proteins is just a fraction of what LIRs can do....

[Journal of Cell Biology @JCellBiol]

New Perspective: Brian North, Christopher Shoemaker @shoemaker_lab et al. @GeiselMed highlight emerging evidence that LIRs act as protein interaction hotspots, coordinating diverse protein–protein interactions across the #autophagy pathway. https://t.co/OgGc74PSkX

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Hello??? Is this thing on???
In case it is, we're excited to share Brian's recent work on the expanded role of LIRs in autophagy (spoiler alert: they do much more than bind LC3). Huge thanks to all who were involved in this study!

[Journal of Cell Biology @JCellBiol]

North, Shoemaker et al. @GeiselMed define the LC3-interacting region (LIR) of NBR1 as a multifunctional binding site that recruits ATG8 proteins, FIP200, and TAX1BP1 to drive autophagic flux. https://t.co/c27WtkZMww

Congrats to Sarah Lamson for successfully defending her undergraduate honors thesis! We will greatly miss her presence around lab.

Best wishes on the next step of your scientific journey!

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Very excited to welcome our newest grad student, @AdwaitaBose, to the lab!! Looking forward to all that she brings to our team!

CONGRATULATIONS to Dr. Jose Delgado on a successful thesis defense!

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

🎉Congrats Dr. Delgado! @jmdelgado_ 🎉 A fantastic thesis defense from an inaugural member of @shoemaker_lab. We couldn't be more proud!

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Congrats José! A great talk at Keystone and an even greater contribution to science in your thesis work!

[José Delgado, Ph.D. @jmdelgado_]

Last week I had the opportunity to present my main thesis work at #KSautophagy24 in Keystone, CO.

Today, that work is finally published online @embojournal! https://t.co/ZVUl8BAmQ7

The @LaughneyLab and @WeillCornell is recruiting innovative postdocs with expertise in variational inference, dynamical systems, and/or computational systems biology to study inter-cellular communication in the tumor microenvironment! Pls RT, job posting: https://t.co/5XUGBggqxY

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Welcome to the new MCB first-year cohort 🎉

The Shoemaker Lab had a blast talking to you all during this year's MCB retreat!

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Another BIG moment for the Shoemaker Lab: Congratulations to Sam for passing her qualifying exam!! Next stop, doctorate! 🎉

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Welcome to our newest lab member, Carter! Can't wait to see all the cool things you do during your PhD journey. 🎉🥶

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Congratulations for our extraordinary lab member Logan Wallace for accepting her offer to @HopkinsCMDB for her PhD!!! We are sad to see her leave and move on to do great things.

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

We're privileged to get to work with such incredibly talented and dedicated students. @Muhamma13627355 @Sci_Bea @jmdelgado_ Congrats to all nominees whose work is making a huge difference at Dartmouth and beyond!

[Dartmouth MCB Graduate Program @MCBDartmouth]

Honorable Mention for the Diversity Award was shared by @Sci_Bea (@DionnaKasper Lab) and @jmdelgado_ (@shoemaker_lab)! Beatriz and Jose are integral to the launch and success of @sacnasdartmouth, fostering an inclusive and supportive STEM community @MsbDartmouth @DartmouthBCB

[Shoemaker Lab @shoemaker_lab]

Huge shout out to @jmdelgado_ and the whole lab for a job well done!!!

José prevailed in an epic showdown against both #mitophagy AND tail-anchored proteins! See his thread for a full accounting.

[José Delgado, Ph.D. @jmdelgado_]

I am so excited to present my first publication of thesis work! 🙌🏽 Would not have been possible without Chris @shoemaker_lab and my fellow lab mates.

Our story brings together #mitophagy, tail-anchored proteins, and quality control.
