Working on biogenesis and quality control of mitochondria!
New year and a new publication!🥳 Our latest research on Dbi1, an uncharacterised, open reading frame that acts as a novel oxidoreductase and assembly chaperone in the mitochondria is out now!! Thank you to @emboreports for publishing our hardwork!🥳 doi.org/10.1038/s44319…

Boss doing boss things!!🎉 @lifescimunich #Mitochondria #ProteinImport #Biochemistry

🚀 Excited to share our latest work on Mrx6 and mtDNA copy number regulation, now available on @biorxivpreprint ! We uncover how Mrx6 and Mam33 interact with the Lon protease Pim1 to control substrate degradation. 🔬 Check it out here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #mitochondria #mtDNA
Always a fun time to celebrate a publication!🎊 If you haven't yet, check out our latest paper in which we characterise Dbi1, an open reading that helps mitochondrial inner membrane proteins such as Tim17 gain its disulfide bond! doi.org/10.1038/s44319… #Dbi1 #Tim17


Dbi1 is an oxidoreductase and an assembly chaperone for mitochondrial inner membrane proteins. -> embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

The Walter Neupert Lecture 2024. Congratulations to Prof. Dr. Elke Deuerling for receiving this year's Walter Neupert medal😊


This year’s medicine laureates Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun studied a relatively unassuming 1 mm long roundworm, C. elegans. Despite its small size, C. elegans possesses many specialised cell types such as nerve and muscle cells also found in larger, more complex animals,…
BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.
