Mitochondria- and ER-associated actin are required for mitochondrial fusion - Nature Communications The actin cytoskeleton is crucial for cell and organelle motility. Here, the authors show that actin acts upstream of the mitochondrial fusion machinery to bridge two fusing mitochondria.

Endogenous mitochondrial NAD(P)H fluorescence can predict lifespan - Communications Biology Endogenous mitochondrial NAD(P)H fluorescence enables label-free and subcellular resolution quantification of aging, prediction of remaining lifespan and tracking of age-dependent changes to mitochond...

Cool new work from the lab by @chris-morrow.bsky.social: Often we think of auto-fluorescence as a hindrance to experiments - but endogenous metabolites have specific fluorescence we can use to determine the metabolic state of the cell - and predict lifespan.. www.nature.com/articles/s42...

Cryo-EM map and atomic model of the RAVE complex (regulator of ATPases of endosomes and vacuoles) bound to a partial V1-ATPase complex

Atomic model showing that the RAVE complex binds to a region of the V1 complex subunit A not found in the homologous ATP synthase subunit beta.

Most protein complexes are born only once. V-ATPase assembles over and over as part of its regulatory mechanism, enabled by RAVE (regulator of ATPase of vacuoles and endosomes)
@hanlinw222.bsky.social's 1st struct of RAVE bound to a partial V1 complex now out in PNAS.

Hi! I’m a PhD student at the Hernandez Lab @ Tufts. I’m into polymerases, helicases, non-B DNA structures, and metabolism—all the cool science! I also love computational modeling and understanding the molecular details that power life.
