Lots of excellent advice in this piece. The core message - only through writing do you really think and order your thoughts into logical sense. Makes a case for not using AI for 1st draft because you bypass the thinking step

Combining bacterial end joining with programmable nucleases, we induced mtDNA deletions in human cells at varying heteroplasmy and examined their metabolic and cellular effects. Simple tool to apply across any cell type and engineer pathogenic mtDNA deletions. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Mysterious increase in the motility of these #lysosomes

After adding a non-stimuli treatment the lysosomes (cyan) got crazy (see color coded tracks)
Maybe #mechanosignaling triggered by shear stress?

Thrilled to share one of our biggest discoveries: “Inceptor binds to and directs insulin towards lysosomal degradation in beta cells”.
doi.org/10.1038/s422...
A tremendous collaborative effort led by JohannaSiehler, Sara Bilekova and other members of the Lickert lab @heikolickert.bsky.social
Inceptor binds to and directs insulin towards lysosomal degradation in β cells - Nature Metabolism
The insulin inhibitory receptor (inceptor) is found to bind to insulin and to regulate insulin stores by directing proinsulin and insulin towards lysosomal degradation.

How long does an mRNA stay in the nucleus? How long does it stay in the cytoplasm? In an amazing collaboration with @landthalerm.bsky.social, we used metabolic labeling, cell fractionation and mathematical modeling to quantify mRNA flow through the cell. Finally out in MSB: doi.org/10.1038/s443...
Graphical abstract of the paper.

I can’t even fathom how clueless a person would need to be to say this out loud.

Open any history book, any corporate lawsuit and see how far you can trust humans in the face of greed. And *especially* institutions where people are “just doing their job”.
Tweet from Yann LeCun, which says “AI is not some sort of natural phenomenon that we have no control over. AI is being built by us, humans. Hence, if you’re scared of AI, what you were actually scared of are your fellow humans. You probably have doubts about the ability of institutions to do the right things with it. Why?”
