🚀 Excited to share new work from Daniel Haas. In collaboration with Jan Hasenauer and Daniel Weindl within
@batenergy.bsky.social we've developed a software tool to map protein and lipid localization in cells, making spatial biology more accessible

Single molecule studies from Arda Mizrak in the Farese/Walther @msk & Harper Labs @harvardcellbio.bsky.social shows how lipid droplet proteins track through ER networks to ultimately partition into nanodomains on droplets, dependent upon Trp-containing hairpin motifs www.nature.com/articles/s41...
One more thing- here, together with amazing human being, friend & stellar physician scientist Abby Xie, we identify a new function of the TCA cycle, which is citrate clearance, now online at @cellpress.bsky.social: www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

‼️🚨Hi all! The next Bioc Soc Membrane Contact Site Meeting will be in Chepstow, UK 28-30th Sept 2026. Fantastic speakers with talk slots still available. Sign up & abstract submission now open - limited spaces so register early! Hope to see you all there. Please share + RT 🙏
A big chunk of my postdoctoral work on cell-state dependent metabolism is now out at @cp-molcell.bsky.social: www.cell.com/molecular-ce... 1/
Nature Metabolism, Published online: 05 January 2026; doi:10.1038/s42255-025-01427-2Sex profoundly shapes liver metabolism, with oestrogens conferring protection against metabolic liver disease. In this study, Yang, Wang and colleagues identify the orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR110 as a liver-specific brake on oestrogen signalling, bridging GPCR and nuclear receptor pathways, thus pointing to GPR110 as a target for sex-specific therapy in liver disease.

C-COMPASS is an open-source software designed to predict the spatial cellular distribution of proteins and lipids from cellular organelle profiling using a neural network-based regression model.
Mizrak et al. use single-molecule tracking to dissect mechanisms of protein targeting to lipid droplets. They show that nanodomain-based confinement drives selective protein accumulation on lipid drop...
