"Many scientists know from the start that they want to be academic researchers. But for others the path unfolds gradually, with spurts of doubt and uncertainty along the way. In a way, that’s fitting." #ScienceWorkingLife scim.ag/3R8PtCK

Mitochondria: the CEO of the cell *Chief Executive Organelle* A coherent reframe on how to think about this special organelle By ShuttLab Tim Shutt and Laurie Glover journals.biologists.com/jcs/article-ab…

In their Opinion article, Laurie Lee-Glover, Martin Picard Martin Picard and Timothy Shutt ShuttLab argue that mitochondria should be considered as the ‘Chief Executive Organelle’ – the CEO – of the cell. #JCSMitoSI #Mitochondria journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…

A pair of split inteins—small protein segments that can undergo a self-sustained protein splicing reaction—enables endogenous protein editing in living mammalian cells, according to a new study in Science. 📄: scim.ag/3ENypj9 #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/430jwC9

The only rule in biology is that there are exceptions to every rule. This is what makes biology infinitely exciting; even when you think you’ve got the complete view, the floor can drop out from underneath you at any given moment. Case-in-point: The nucleus is the thing that
