New paper from @zhixingchen2.bsky.social's lab!
It turns out that, in addition to its very low phototoxicity, PKmito Deep Red (PKMDR) directly reports on mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in live cells through its lifetime!

Thrilled to share a new preprint! 📝 🎉 Lewis lab PhD student Casadora wondered: Do mtDNA synthesis and lipid droplet biogenesis co-occur at the same membrane contact sites? Or can we discern distinct ER-mito contact classes? Evidence suggests the latter, relevant in overnutrition!
do you ever stare at the ceiling and think about how the worldwide scientific establishment did the impossible and created a COVID vaccine in under a year and the response of the general public has been to go on an unstoppable rampage to destroy science and scientists
A must-read for anyone in mitochondria research!
Journal of Cell Science has released a Special Issue on the Cell Biology of Mitochondria - articles, reviews, and expert insights covering dynamics, disease, and more!

Banner day for our grad students at the always amazing Dept. of Microbiology, Immunology & Cancer Biology Retreat. Congrats to Daniel and Salma for “lightning talk” and “poster” awards! Great science all around!!
🔥Smoking hot new paper and tweetorial from @djcalebc.bsky.social (collab with Chinnaiyan Lab)! 🔥
We are over the moon about this new work and its therapeutic implications for pancreatic cancer. Please have a read and share your thoughts/feedback! 🙏🏼
I'm thrilled to share that our story is now out in Science Advances! 🎉 We use quantitative imaging to map the mito central dogma, define translation hubs in the mitochondrial matrix, and show that they're replaced by Mitochondrial Stress Bodies (MSB) when mtRNA processing is perturbed 1/4
Your yearly reminder to acknowledge the core facilities you use and their staff scientists in your papers. These scientists are a crucial part of the scientific ecosystem and to continue to exist they need tangible credit for their work. Plus their associated expertise adds credibility to your work.
