A model to describe what we show in the paper. INVs are important for sequestering GLUT4 and related proteins into GSVs, the vesicles that are mobilised in response to insulin.

🚨 We have a new preprint out! 🧪

In this paper we look at GLUT4 trafficking. This is a short explainer thread, but please read the paper!

Klebsiella strain to protect against IBD gut infections A team of researchers led by Karina Xavier has uncovered a promising new live biotherapeutic agent that may redefine how the medical field approaches microbiota-based therapies.

New research led by @karinaxavierlab.bsky.social at 🇵🇹 @gimmfoundation.bsky.social demonstrates that a harmless strain of 🦠 #Klebsiella – discovered by chance in 🧫 laboratory experiments – can eliminate #infections and reduce gut inflammation in mouse models of inflammatory bowel disease. #IBD

How did @Nature become "prestigious" to scientists?

In our opening article of Issue 09, writer Robert Reason traces the journal's history.

By understanding how Nature’s prestige was constructed, we can also clarify which elements are deserved and which are entrenched.

This one was quite the journey! The paper describing the #ChlamyDataset is finally out and on the cover of Mol Cell!

This beautiful rendering made by co-author @jessheebner.bsky.social and Holly Peterson shows an instance of mitochondrial fission found in the dataset 😍
