Hey, this is so cool! Thanks Johannes Herrmann and Doron! Congrats Tino Pleiner @GPTomaleri and Masami!

In their ‘Cell science at a glance’ article and poster, Büsra Kizmaz and Johannes Herrmann Johannes Herrmann give an overview of the different insertases and translocases that integrate proteins into cellular membranes. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…


A discovery from the Clemons Lab @Caltech may help researchers fulfill bacteriophages' initial promise as an antibiotic therapeutic. Marshaling the right phages at the right time to address bacterial infections could create a new, more durable antibiotic. caltech.edu/about/news/lit…

“Women earn more than 50% of PhD’s, but receive only 39% of postdoc fellowships & 18% of professorships.[..] The more decorated a male scientist is, the fewer women he trains, and universities hire their junior faculty members from these elite men’s labs.” theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…


In Spotlight, Rapaport & Johannes Herrmann discuss work by Tino Pleiner et al. (bit.ly/3o7aS4r) examining the mechanism underlying the the selectivity filter in the ER membrane protein complex to maintain the integrity of the ER proteome bit.ly/3JWkyGy #ER_Literature



Very happy to see that our paper bit.ly/41Qzkoq made it onto the cover of JCB! Beautiful artwork by Larissa Ulisko and fun teamwork Rebecca Voorhees. This well written spotlight article by Johannes Herrmann and Doron Rapaport provides a great summary: bit.ly/47eLv26

I'm a bit biased, but what a beaut! Congrats Tino Pleiner @GPTomaleri and twitterless Masami

Another fun collaboration with Jonathan Weissman's Lab! Happy to be a part of it, and congrats to all the authors! Taylor Stevens @guna_alina @aj_inglis and Gayathri
