Excited to share our new preprint in @biorxiv-neursci.bsky.social

"Cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) binds to talin and is anchored at the postsynaptic density via direct interaction with PDZ domains"

Instead of a 🧵 the paper is summarised in this video.

This tool enables the study of amino acid homeostasis in complex environments; we were able to show that metabolic specialization promotes longevity in colony-embedded cells.

For those interested in yeast amino acid control, we've developed fluorescent reporters to simultaneously monitor amino acid synthesis and uptake activities (GAAC, TORC1, and SPS) in single cells: www.molbiolcell.org/doi/10.1091/...
