Two very different roles for a kinase enzyme: in DNA repair and ribosome assembly go.nature.com/392hFPL

Great commentary on both papers from @chaynes329 and Bradford Tremblay: nature.com/articles/d4158…

so happy to have been part of this project! Check out our paper in @nature today!

New paper from @JSWlab: many of the small, translated open reading frames we see by ribosome profiling produce peptides with specific molecular functions in the cell. Very nice work, and I look forward to a @BerkeleyMCB talk about it in a couple of weeks. science.sciencemag.org/content/367/64…

OPA1 mediates inner mitochondrial fusion and mutations cause optic atrophy. Yu et al. present the crystal structure of a minimal GTPase domain of human OPA1, which sheds light on its dimerization and provides an explanation for pathogenic mutations bit.ly/35F6xYf

Interested in CRISPRi in iPSCs and derived cell types? Together with Allen Institute & WardLab, we generated a highly characterized, publicly available line. Big thanks to Kun Leng, Nina Draeger, Olivia Teter, Syd Sattler & others in the @kampmannlab! tinyurl.com/y6fgqvnj

Individual atoms within a protein can now be located using the technique of cryo-electron microscopy. What are the implications of this advance? go.nature.com/2HdMR6k

DELE1 oligomerization promotes integrated stress response activation Excited that we (⁦Xiaoyan Guo⁩ ⁦Giovanni Aviles⁩) could contribute to this work led by Jie Yang ⁦Lander Lab⁩ and see the structure of our friend DELE1 for the first time! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Zooming around a bacteria cell. It's so cool I just got the cell imported (including lipids) and rendering correctly with the new rendering engine (it's called Angstrom). 3x performance boost! So much detail (too much?!) #screenshotsunday #gamedev #scicomm #xcode #swiftlang
