Excited to present first publication from the Joshi lab, now in @jcb.org

Here, we show that phosphatidic acid regulates Pex30 distribution at ER subdomains for lipid droplet biogenesis by binding to dysferlin domain.

In this study, we show that Pex30 dysferlin domain binds PA through its two hydrophobic regions adjacent to beta sheets. We propose that, PA, a precursor f

The p97 ATPase and its adaptor UBXD8 maintain #peroxisome pools by preventing #pexophagy, say Iris Montes, Malavika Raman @maliramanlab.bsky.social @tufts.edu and colleagues: rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Congratulations @maliramanlab.bsky.social!! Happy to have contributed to this study.
Montes et al. @maliramanlab.bsky.social @tufts.edu find the p97 ATPase and its adaptor UBXD8 maintain #peroxisome abundance by suppressing #pexophagy. p97-UBXD8 degrade ubiquitylated peroxisomal proteins to bypass recognition by #autophagy receptors. rupress.org/jcb/article/...
