Sun, surf and scientific talks 😎
Centre Director Ian Paulsen and COO J-L Heylen joined CoESB researchers from our @uwanews and @CurtinUni nodes for their annual Theme 2 (Synthetic Organelles) Retreat on Rottnest Island in sunny WA 🌊☀️ @TheRackhamLab@FilipovskaLab@arc_gov_au
It takes two to TANGO2!
TANGO2 binds the heat shock protein crystallin alpha B to prevent aggregation of the intermediate filament desmin and its loss models TANGO2-deficiency disorder
Many thanks to our team, collaborators and reviewers.

Update! We outline AIVE, an AI method for volume EM data. We show the benefits of AIVE for reconstructing your FIB-SEM data, reveal some fascinating cell biology, and define intrusions as a new form of mitochondrial contact.

Better CRISPR base editors!
More efficient nicking of the unedited DNA strand improves the ability to edit hard to reach bases.

Thanks to all the authors for their insightful contributions and our editor for their kind invitation and guidance.
High-fidelity Cas9 variants that prevent off-target cleavage typically reduce on-target activity. Adding TurboCas9 mutations to these enzymes can improve activity while maintaining off-target fidelity. @CellRepMethods

Are you tired of slow gene editing and scattershot targeting?
Well no more, here we introduce HyperDriveCas9.
An engineered Cas9 variant that is both hyperactive and hyper accurate.

CRISPR screening, volumetric EM and multi-omics reveal the highly connected nature of organelles.
Defects in peroxisomes, Golgi and the ER converge on mitochondria via the lipidome.
