Excited to share the cryo-EM structure of the Retriever-SNX17 complex. We also identify additional ligands that bind to the same pocket in Retriever. Great collaboration with the Chen lab, UTSW SBL and the Turer lab. https://t.co/O5Mp6CRTRs

@ezraburstein Proud of being in this team!

[stonechenlab @stonechenlab]

Very happy with the collaboration! Appreciate everyone's contributions!

I am delighted to share our findings describing the structural organization of Retriever - CCC: https://t.co/IAaH5CboLw
Congrats also to @PeterJCullen1 @brettcollins100 and Markku Varjosalo and teams who also tackled this question.

[stonechenlab @stonechenlab]

Very exciting! Wonderful collaborations!

Very proud to have been able to be part of this: True multi-disciplinary effort to characterise the physical interaction of Arf1 with WRC…

Arf GTPase activates the WAVE regulatory complex through a distinct binding site https://t.co/slHWT3Vp7G

@NicolasNassar3 Thank you so much!

[stonechenlab @stonechenlab]

Our Rac1-WRC paper is published in Nature Communications today https://t.co/86Z7Y6iZt1, showing how Rac1 GTPase activates the WAVE complex to promote actin polymerization. Thanks a million to all co-authors for solving this important mechanism!!

[The Chowdhury Lab @saikatLab]

A great collaborative effort with @stonechenlab and @RottnerKlemens group! Congratulations to @bojian_ding for all the structural work and #cryoem and all the other authors.

[The Chowdhury Lab @saikatLab]

Check out our recent manuscript in @NatureComms https://t.co/b5VBA7dV7N where we show how Rac1 GTPase activates WRC complex to promote actin polymerization by Arp2/3 complex.
