This really interesting research illustrates how Dictyostelium coordinates macropinocytosis and chemotaxis through transcriptional factors. Super proud of participating in this work. Congrats to all my dear old lab mates and my tremendous supervisor.

Register (for free) to attend this fantastic workshop - attend virtually or in person. A great lineup of talks focused on the future of cell biology and how we can build bridges across disciplines and size scales to make impactful advances for large-scale cell biology.

While the Nf1 mutation, a Ras GAP, is required to maintain high level of macropinocytosis in the axenic Dicty line, the Ras activity still needs to be optimized. This paper shows a novel RasGAP complex modulates Ras activity, which is important for macropinocytosis.

It is good example how alphafold helps a cell biologist understands molecular mechanisms in more depth. Another interesting observation is that Leep2 is absent from the pseudopodia during cell migration, while enriched at the MP cups, a front structure similar to pseudopodia.

Have you ever wondered how your back formed? The human embryo makes a neural tube (future spinal cord) and somites (trunk muscle/bone) from ~d20. They’re formed at the same time and place, so we used human Trunk-like Structures (hTLS) to investigate their ‘co-development’… (1/7)

I am delighted to share our new study published in ⁦Nature Communications⁩ in which we uncover a common mechanism by which collagen signaling and matrix stiffness regulate stem cell multipotency in glandular epithelia. nature.com/articles/s4146…
