Welcome to MBSJ

Many thanks to Midori Ota and Yasutaka Kakui for organizing an excellent and interactive cell division symposium at MBSJ Midori Ohta Yuki Hara (原 裕貴) #MBSJ2023

A new year and everybody is back in the lab. Midori Ohta Franz Meitinger

Because you can’t fix what you don’t understand, MeitingerOhtaLab's unit studies how dividing cells stay healthy, what happens if those mechanisms fail and searches for new treatment targets to combat #cancer. #NewFacultyOfOIST Franz Meitinger Midori Ohta ⬇️ oist.jp/news-center/ne…

分からない病気は、治すことができません。 MeitingerOhtaLab’s Unitでは、細胞分裂はどのように正しく行われるのか、うまくいかなかった場合は何が起こるのかを研究。#がん の新たな治療 標的を探しています。#NewFacultyOfOIST Franz Meitinger Midori Ohta 記事はこちらから⬇️ ow.ly/8MgP50QBwFW

Our new paper is out in #NatureAging ! Cell membrane damage induces senescence! 1st authors --> kou OIST_KonoLab Hana ハナ🇯🇵하나 🇰🇷 nature.com/articles/s4358…

🔬Groundbreaking research by OIST Cell Proliferation and Gene Editing Unit and collaborators show how cells become ultimate protectors against cancer!🧬Did you know cells sense defects by measuring the duration of #mitosis? MeitingerOhtaLab Oegema/Desai Labs ow.ly/Gknt50R4KZk

Our paper "Control of cell proliferation by memories of mitosis" is out Science Magazine. We show that cells can detect and memorize defects in mitosis to eliminate potentially damaged cells. OIST Franz Meitinger Oegema/Desai Labs science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Big thanks to all Dynamic Kinetochore Workshop participants for excellent science, engaging conversations, and mountain excursions! We hope to see everyone in Oxford in 2027. Thanks also to our generous sponsors EMBO Events The Company of Biologists eLife - the journal Chromosoma_Edboard Swiss National Science Foundation Université de Genève EMBO

We are looking for faculties interested in #Energy and #Sustainability broadly defined. oist.jp/careers/facult…

We are happy to share our review on the 53BP1-mediated activation of the tumor suppressor p53. We summarize the cell cycle-depend functions of 53BP1 during mitosis and interphase and address its role in maintaining a healthy tissue. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09…

Interested in Base Editing and Genetic Screening? Check out our method chapter: link.springer.com/protocol/10.10… Esther Ng did an excellent job developing these methods in our lab. The constructs will soon be available on Addgene Many thanks to OIST for supporting open access!

A prolonged mitosis is characteristic of defects that drive genome instability. What are the underlying causes and broader implications of prolonged mitosis? Check out our review... authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09…

We wish you Happy Holidays from Okinawa!

For all cell biologists: join the conference organized to celebrate 50 years of German Society for Cell Biology! zellbiologie.de/dgz-internatio… Registration is open! See you in Heidelberg. #DGZ50

Check out our review on "PLK4: Master Regulator of Centriole Duplication and Its Therapeutic Potential". Everything you need to know about centriole duplication, mitotic stopwatch and TRIM37-mediated cancer-specific vulnerabilities. Midori Ohta onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cm…
