Remember learning that #ribosomes are made of 1 large subunit RNA + 1 small subunit RNA? Well, some cells defy this rule, and the most extreme case is #Toxoplasma which makes its mitoribosome from >50 RNA pieces! Wanna know how? Read the next comments.

Every synthetic biologist, every biochemist, when they dream, will sometimes hear a voice calling A whisper on the wind, as impossible as infinity, as sweet as the ambrosia of the very Gods "Engineer RuBisCo" And this paper takes us one step closer nature.com/articles/s4158…

science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Just published! We uncovered a molecular machine that connects the cell's two major structural networks revealing how cells accomplish precise internal reorganization - a process disrupted in diseases ranging from cancer to multiple sclerosis.

Beautiful animation of metabolic flux in the mitochondrial Kreb (TCA) cycle The three "CO2" coming off the cycle is how you lose weight: carbon from your material body coming off as gas you end up breathing out By Janet Iwasa

Wonderful turn out at March for Science in Sacramento today! Biomedical research saves lives, promotes innovation, and pays for itself many times over!! It has been a bipartisan issue for decades and made the US truly great! Stand up for science! Support NIH!

Another wonderful collaboration with Alan Brown lab. The Zhang lab together with Polina Lishko lab (co-first author Qingwei Niu) contribute the doublet microtubule structure from Crithidia fasciculata, a model organism that infects mosquitoes. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Hello to animation tuesday! 😉 This 👇 animation is the outcome of the work I did for our publication of the human prohibitin complex. Moddeled a mitochondrion and animated one of my beloved flythroughs, et voilà 🥰 #Blender3D #SciComm #SciViz #SciArt #animation
