Dammermann Lab

🚨Our collaboration with @centriolelab.bsky.social & @gautamdey.bsky.social is out today in @cp-cell.bsky.social
We show that #Expansion #Microscopy is a broad-spectrum modality for Euks, enabling 3D phenotypic maps rooted to phylogeny.

In vitro approaches to study centriole and cilium function in early mouse embryogenesis Although centrioles and primary cilia play an essential role in early mammalian development, their specific function during the interval between their initial formation and the subsequent arrest of em...

Really excited to see this out in the open: www.life-science-alliance.org/content/9/1/...! @isabellavoelkl.bsky.social explored and compared different in vitro developmental model systems to study ciliogenesis.

This whole line of research was driven by @isabellavoelkl.bsky.social and is a deviation from my expertise. Without the help of @dammermannlab.bsky.social, we would have been lost on the way. So grateful for my amazing colleagues at the @maxperutzlabs.ac.at

Schreiner, Mikeladze-Dvali et al. @lifescimunich.bsky.social show that CDK-1 primes PCMD-1 for PLK-1 phosphorylation. Mutations in PLK-1 docking sites impair SPD-5 binding, destabilize the PCM, and delay #centriole separation. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Centrosomes might look tough, but they are actually big softies - see the latest work from the Dammermann lab now on BioRxiv:

🆕 publication! What do centriolar satellites really do? In @jcb.org the Dammermann lab challenges the idea that they simply shuttle proteins to the centrosome and cilium. Instead, their findings reveal a surprising new role linked to translation and protein quality control. More tinyurl.com/4dnb2c24

Pachinger, Dammermann et al. @maxperutzlabs.bsky.social‬ present a model for centriolar satellites not as transport modules but as sites of translation specifically of centrosomal and ciliary proteins. rupress.org/jcb/article/...
