Now out in its final form in @jacs.acspublications.org: Reaction pathways & photoreaction yields of bifunctional lipid probes. The numbers that explain why we spend so much time optimizing protocols for cellular assays. 😉 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
A study establishes a correlative light and electron microscopy workflow that reveals how individual lipid species distribute across nanoscale membrane domains, uncovering sphingomyelin sorting within...

Looks like a great @embo.org workshop coming in September: “Lipid Code to Life”, with a who’s who of lipid #biochemistry… (e.g. @dimovalab.bsky.social @holthuislab.bsky.social @sciezgin.bsky.social etc ) More info and registration: meetings.embo.org/event/26-lip... #lipids #biophysics
Bifunctional diazirine lipids are versatile tools for mapping protein–lipid interactions and cellular localization by photo-cross-linking. Yet, the cross-linking efficiency of these probes has not bee...
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, Published online: 03 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41580-026-00978-wTight junctions form essential paracellular barriers and regulate cell polarity and tissue mechanics. This Review discusses how tight junction components assemble into strand networks, and explores tight junction function in development and disease, and emerging therapeutic strategies.
Modern lipid biology has evolved far beyond the traditional view of lipids as simple building blocks or energy substrates. Lipids are now recognised as dynamic regulators of biological structures and…

It's always important to carefully characterize the reactivity of your favorite tools to optimize applications. We teamed up with Carla Kirschbaum and Carol V. Robinson to map photolysis reaction pathways of bifunctional lipids www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
We offer a PostDoc position for a fully funded project on lipid-encoded #lipidtime protein quality-control checkpoints at the Golgi: great collaborators, excellent working & living conditions & benchspace with a view ;) Please share and repost!
