Thrilled to share "in situ APEX activation" (iAPEX), a proximity labeling technology for subcellular #proteomics applied to primary #cilia. iAPEX uses an enzymatic cascade, in which a D-amino acid oxidase locally produces H2O2 to activate ascorbate peroxidase.

Proximity labeling allows proteomic mapping of subcellular structures. Here, Sroka et al. develop in situ APEX activation (iAPEX) to overcome limitations of labeling specificity and H2O2 toxicity, app...

What looks like art is actually biology — a rat liver cell seen under the microscope.

Those glowing strands are actin and microtubules, the scaffolding that lets the liver filter blood, detoxify chemicals, and even regrow itself.

Neat trick if you polycolonal ab's suck. Incubate them with fixed cells with a KO of your protein of interest, then spin. Protocol here: www.med.upenn.edu/markslab/ass...
I was amazed how well it worked on first try (I'm sure that I can completely eliminate unspecific bands)

Much needed good news!! Our paper is just out in @jcb.org. We found a crazy antagonistic motor function that explains the elongation/retraction phenotype we see during LRRK2-dependent lysosomal tubulation. I am especially proud of Tsion, Nuria, Mia and Irene's contribution. Check it out!
