The Mitochondrial Brown Adipose Tissue Maintenance Factor Nipsnap1 Interfaces Directly With the β-Oxidation Protein Machinery in Rodents
The activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is associated with improved metabolic
health in humans. We previously identified the mitochondrial protein Nipsnap1 as a
novel regulatory factor that integ...

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.
A Place of Joy.
