Congrats to all scientists! 👏 The @versteegga.bsky.social lab has long collaborated with the Clausen lab, and this new study once again highlights the collaborative spirit of the @vbcscitraining.bsky.social ⤵️
Scientists uncovered how the immune protein ZNFX1 enables cells to walk the fine line between fighting infection & avoiding autoimmune damage. ZNFX1 can ubiquitinate & compact host & viral RNA into molecular condensates, extending ubiquitin biology to RNA itself. More: www.imp.ac.at/news/article...

And it's out!
I'm thrilled to share our new paper (Adriaenssens et al., Nat Cell Biol 2025).
This paper describes a new mechanism for the initiation of autophagosome biogenesis.
We found that this WIPI-ATG13-driven pathway is preferentially used by a group of transmembrane autophagy receptors.
