Impressionnantes IMAGES de l'effondrement d'un pan du glacier de la #Marmolada, dans les Dolomites, sur la voie qui mène au sommet de la Punta Rocca. Il y faisait 10°C (très chaud donc). Il y aurait au minimum 5 morts et 8 blessés. #UrgenceClimatique

Our new preprint is out! The standard shapes of phagophores during autophagosome formation are statistically determined by 3d-EM and are quantitatively explained by a physical model. Congratulations, Yuji!!biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

❗️just out Physical Review Letters ❗️a surprising nonequilibrium effect hidden in a classic theory of phase separation...

We are thrilled to welcome our new colleague Roland Knorr with his team Interfacial Cell Biology who just was appointed as W2 professor Biochemistry Center Cologne Universität zu Köln Uniklinik Köln We are looking forward to exciting research on phase separation & shaping of biological membranes biochemie-med.uni-koeln.de/en/forschung/a…

Exciting news: our lab expands and moves Universität zu Köln next to CECAD Cologne ; thrilling papers will be out soon...

In intracellular trafficking, the ESCRT machinery mediates membrane scission of the multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Work @nature proposes that, in plant cells, this is mediated by biomolecular condensates, and depends on the condensates' physical properties. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Not exactly X-less

✂️A *liquid* pair of scissors? This is DALL-E's representation... But biology has built the real deal, as our new work w/ Xiaofeng Fang Interfacial Cell Biology Aland Lab just out nature shows nature.com/articles/s4158… (1/6)

💧✂️Liquid droplets cut membranes without protein scissors🌱 A study led by @knorrlab and team shows that tiny liquid droplets, known as biomolecular condensates, cut membranes of plant cells without the need for specialized protein✂️ Read more 🔗 uni.koeln/RRD22

Exciting news: 2D condensates at mitochondria! Thanks to Yuji Sakai (境祐二), Haruka Chino, Mizushima Lab (UTokyo). Autophagy adaptors mediate Parkin-dependent mitophagy by forming sheet-like liquid condensates | The EMBO Journal embopress.org/doi/full/10.10… Phase Transition Papers

We simulated the formation of OPTN droplets on the membrane in mitophagy. The droplets could lead to the membrane connection. Autophagy adaptors mediate Parkin-dependent mitophagy by forming sheet-like liquid condensates | The EMBO Journal embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
