I almost forgot: a big thank you to Development's @dev-journal.bsky.social editorial and production teams for being supportive, flexible and responsive re: editorial communication and deadlines, during a period when I faced a serious health problem. It means a lot to have this support.

Finding molecular tags that localise fluorescent proteins to the cell membrane was the goal of our latest paper, now published in Development @dev-journal.bsky.social. The tags act as address labels, sending proteins to the cell membrane, where they highlight the shape and arrangement of cells. 2/9
Summary: Screening a toolkit of diverse membrane-localising tags identifies candidates that efficiently localise proteins to the plasma membrane in a wide range of animals and choanoflagellates.
