Another fantastic technology development paper by @davidbreslowlab.bsky.social. Being able to perform microscopy-based CRISPR screens on fixed cells is big. And TZMP1 is a fascinating transition zone proteins. We may be missing many more of these #microproteins. Congrats to all authors!
Ever wanted to do a genome-scale CRISPR screen for a microscopy phenotype? Pooled CRISPR screens are amazing, but hard to combine with imaging... Excited to share our latest work in Dev Cell on a technology platform for imaging screens and applications to primary cilia: www.cell.com/developmenta...

The protein KIF7 plays a crucial role in shaping the brain’s cortex. By fine-tuning Sonic Hedgehog signalling, it guides neuron development and connectivity. When KIF7 is missing, brain wiring is disrupted. #Neuroscience

Our collaboration with @mbonhivers.bsky.social is now out in @plosbiology.org! 🎉Using U-ExM, we mapped the formation of the flagellar pocket collar in T. brucei. Huge thanks to everyone involved — one step closer to #PhDone!

The flagellar pocket collar (FPC) is a cytoskeletal structure essential for nutrient uptake & immune evasion in #Trypanosome. @mbonhivers.bsky.social &co use U-ExM to provide novel insights into FPC biogenesis, and reveal 2 unknown cytoskeletal structures @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4n3bWi6
