An intracellular meteor shower. EB3 comets tracking growing microtubule plus-ends in a cultured cell.
Not something you see in textbooks very often: tripolar mitosis.
Captured this clip when I was still working on the protein CYRI-A for my PhD and it remains one of my most favorites. It was my first time seeing lysosomes (๐ด) fusing on and acidifying a macropinosome (โช). I learned about this at uni but seeing it in action is something else! #FluorescenceFriday

Are the days of discovering new cellular structures over?? /1
Our paper is now out in Science! Super excited to share our discovery that #mitochondria #pearling is the elusive mechanism driving the regular distribution and inheritance of #mtDNA nucleoids ๐งฌ [1/6]
This mesmerizing timelapse captures the nonstop motion inside an animal cell. Red/orange streaks are the growing ends of microtubules, tiny โhighwaysโ that can rapidly assemble and disassemble to move proteins & other molecules within the cell.

Out in @natmethods.nature.com: More dyes. They work. Quite well. And blink. Pick the one that fits your target, your technique, and your labeling density. With too many collaborators and institutes to list, but anchored at @hhmijanelia.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A series of spontaneously blinking dyes in the far-red range facilitate single-molecule localization microscopy. These dyes vary in their blinking properties and can be matched to the applications and...
