It's PyShell day!!🥧🐚 Very exciting work by Luke Mackinder! The high-throughput tagging is a breakthrough development for spatial interactomics in diatoms🌍🌊. And how many PyShell proteins did they find here in T. pseudonana? ...1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6! 🤩

I just published: What’s a toxic environment for a PhD student? Being aware of potential red flags when selecting a host lab is crucial. Here are some issues I’ve witnessed over the years. #phdchat #AcademicChatter link.medium.com/O5fd2PQ0GHb

By generating mutant strains and performing phenotypic analysis, we have elucidated the contribution of extracellular carbonic anhydrase in the CO2-concentrating mechanism, a long-standing controversy since its discovery more than 30 years ago. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Delighted to launch the CyanoTag database from Luke Mackinder now freely available to browse in MORF db! Over 600 S.elongatus proteins were tagged with fluorescent protein to determine location, abundance and interactions. Take a look at the data here: morf-db.org/projects/York-…

What a super meeting! With creative new ways to do research at the beautiful edges of physical and life sciences you really really can make transformative progress that, frankly, will have global and long-lasting impact… Physics of Life

Super happy to have contributed in a small way to this monumental effort by René et al.! This is a really amazing piece of work that significantly advances our ability to engineer chloroplasts.

Luke Mackinder (@mackinderlab) 's Twitter Profile Photo

A game changer in chloroplast engineering. We are already hugely benefitting from the tools. Well worth reading the thread to see how it was achieved

Luke Mackinder (@mackinderlab) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Great to be part of this multi-disciplinary project. See the insightful thread by @CharlSchaef explaining how we worked across disciplines to predict phase diagrams that we experimentally validated #pyrenoid

Another major hurdle overcame in plant pyrenoid engineering to enhance CO2 fixation - how to traverse the Rubisco condensate with thylakoid membranes. Congratulations Martin Jonikas McCormick Lab Jessica Hennacy Nicky Atkinson

Super excited to share our latest work on the native in-cell organization of the mitochondrial respiratory chain 🥳 Using cryo-electron tomography🔬, we show how the respiratory complexes (and other complexes) are organized inside native mitochondria!  biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
