Congrats Alex FaesenLab and also to your whole team! It has been a tremendous pleasure so far!

Scientists FaesenLab, StorkLab & Michael Meinecke Lab have, for the first time, rebuilt in the lab the complex #nanomachine that starts #autophagy in the cells – and the machinery works in a completely different way than other cellular machines.

#Autophagy is an essential cellular process, but how does the autophagosome assemble? Scientists reconstituted the initiation complexes in vitro and found that subunits ATG13 and ATG101 must switch between 2 conformations for assembly to occur. ow.ly/zZvb50OxhCg FaesenLab

Very interesting and adding new insights not only to optineurin signaling but also to the relationship between ULK1 and TBK1! Congrats to Michael Lazarou and @martens_sascha

Congratulations to Harald Stenmark and all co-authors for this fantastic work showing that DFCP1 is an ATPase and that this activity mediates constriction of omegasomes in selective autophagy! Impressive!!

Fantastic back-to-back works by the groups of Felix Randow and Alf Håkon Lystad on noncanonical autophagy via the TECPR1-ATG5-ATG12 axis! embopress.org/doi/full/10.15… and embopress.org/doi/full/10.15…

I fully agree! Especially if someone is talking about autophagy😉

Congratulations to Lena🥳🎉! Nice work!! biosignaling.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

We are happy to share the publication below, which sheds light on the role of Atg1, Atg11 and Atg13 in bulk autophagy initiation. You can find the paper in the following link 👇 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38233718/

Some say it is marble cake from the Santa Claus Holiday Village in Rovaniemi. Others say it's an omegasome😊

Next week we have the great honour of welcoming Zvulun Elazar Weizmann Institute to our GBM e.V. zoom seminar. Don't miss a fantastic lecture: April 17, 2024 - 12:30 PM CEST, Zoom Meeting ID: 813 1377 3199, Passcode: 925656 #autophagy #neurodegeneration #Cancer

Welcome to the EMBO Workshop Autophagy across scales at Sorrento, Italy, Sept 23-27. Remember to sign up! Women in Autophagy Centre for Cancer Cell Reprogramming Nordic Autophagy Society The AIM Center EMBO meetings.embo.org/event/24-autop…

Highly recommended!

Kieran left his phone in a portaloo. These Germany fans found it, took a selfie, then handed it into the police. He has his phone back. What a country. Can we find these fans? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ❤️ 🇩🇪

Heading to Sorrento😊, #EMBOautophagy24

Fantastic meeting #EMBOautophagy2024, great discussions! Many thanks to Antonella Antonella De Matteis, Helene Knævelsrud lab, and Sascha @martens_sascha!

I am happy to share our latest preprint! A great collaboration with the working groups of Holger Gohlke, @sanilbhatia5 and Thomas Kurz within Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf and Uniklinik Düsseldorf ! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Fantastic and important work by Kraft Lab and The Wilfling Lab ! Congratulations!

Our latest preprint! Congratulations, María! Mitotic phosphorylation of Lamin B1 rod domain by ULK1 and Aurora A/PLK1 promotes spindle function. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
