Crazy of fluorescent protein labels, dimerizers, biosensors, etc. The place for #FAST, #splitFAST, #CATCHFIRE, more to come
🔬🌈 #CATCHFIRE now implemented in neurogenesis studies!

🔬🌈 Into #neurogenesis studies?
🔬🌈 Just out in Nature Communications! With #CATCHFIRE, the fluorogenic dimerizer of The Twinkle Factory, the authors were indeed able to force the displacement of mitochondria towards microtubules during mitosis

Unequal mitochondrial segregation promotes asymmetric fates during neurogenesis - Nature Communications
Bunel et al. show that mitochondria behave as asymmetric fate determinants in vertebrates in vivo. Forcing their unequal segregation during mitosis is sufficient to drive premature neural differentiat...

A color-tailored fluorogenic sensor for hydrogen peroxide - Nature Chemical Biology
Hydrogen peroxide is a signaling molecule that can also cause damage if its levels are too high. Here, the authors report HyPerFLEX, a fluorescent sensor with tenable colors, to track very low peroxid...

🚨How do we implement synthetic fluorophores into biosensors? Have a look at Elias Dressler’s review article in Chimia. The issue highlights the work of Young Professors and Ambizione Fellows in Switzerland. Glad to be part of this vibrant community. ⚗️ www.chimia.ch/chimia/artic...
