We just deposited data from 12x CRISPR screens related to lipid droplets in #CRISPRlipid crisprlipid.org. These include genome-wide and focused screens under different metabolic conditions. Alyssa Mathiowetz CRISPRlipid Details in recent preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The final version of our #bioorthogonal #lipidtime method for imaging rapid inter-organelle transport of fluorescent phospholipid analogs is now published — congrats to Lin Luan (Lin_Luan), Dongjun Liang, Dylan Chiu, & Reika Tei! doi.org/10.1021/acsche…

Exciting story on adipogenin regulation of seipin complexes and lipid droplets in adipocytes from the Scherer lab UT Southwestern Medical Center! Beautiful story from discovery to structure to physiology. Very interesting seipin-ADIG cryo-EM structures! 🤩 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Interested in the cell biology of neurobiology? The Dept of Cell Biology (Cell Biology UTSW) is conducting a joint search with the O'Donnell Brain Institute (OBI) looking for leading edge, multidisciplinary cell biologists with strong interests in neuroscience. jobs.utsouthwestern.edu/job/20874688/a…

Congratulations on our formal PhD Student Yang Yang Yang 's outstanding postdoc work with Bianxiao Cui ! Curvature-sensing of membrane contact sites in iPSC-derived muscle cell - important cell biology for understanding excitation–contraction coupling! nature.com/articles/s4155…

I am deeply honored to receive the 2025 Kazuhiko Kinosita Award in Single-Molecule Biophysics from the Biophysical Society. Our achievements build on the foundations laid by many great scientists, including all past recipients of this award. I would like to extend my sincere

Specific activation of the integrated stress response uncovers regulation of central carbon metabolism and lipid… disq.us/t/4qw0ru5

I just had a feeling that it would be this year!! A massive congratulations to the most inspirational and deserving scientist I know, my mentor and PhD advisor David Baker!!!! 🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾

APEX peroxidase is a versatile tool for proximity labeling and electron microscopy (EM) but its requirement for toxic H2O2 is a liability. We now report LaccID, a multicopper oxidase evolved from an ancestral fungal laccase that oxidizes aromatic substrates using non-toxic O2

I am happy to see our first manuscript already in bioRxiv! This collaborative work present a strategy to image and extract single-cell organelle signatures in tissues. Shout-out to all the authors! Alex Hillsley Raghabendra Adhikari (Rahul) Isabel Espinosa Medina Jan Funke

I am super excited to share our article addressing a longstanding question in neurobiology: how Ca²⁺ signaling cascades initiated at dendritic spines operate at a distance. Check it out here: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00… Cell

Joel Goodman is one of my all-time favorite lipid droplet scientists. (recently retired from UT Southwestern Medical Center) He is also an exceptional and accomplished pianist! I love that he occasionally posts some videos of him practicing on youtube. Enjoy. ☺️ youtu.be/KuJwuZwUCcE?si…

I am excited to preprint my postdoc work in the James Olzmann! We have discovered the first lipid droplet quality control pathway with broad implications for lipid physiology and diseases associated with LD accumulation and oxidative stress! #lipidtime shorturl.at/2HqFd

Excited to share our new preprint! Exceptional work by postdoc @MikeLange identifies the first #LipidDroplet lipid quality control pathway! Droplet-localized FSP1 safeguards stored neutral lipids, blocking their peroxidation & #ferroptosis induction.🤩biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
