@lucasbsullivan.bsky.socialA couple of days late, but many congratulations to graduate student Youmian Yan for defending her thesis this week!! Dr. Yan gave an incredible presentation on her work on mitochondrial protein import. Well done and richly deserved. 🥳🎉
Show PostA new study by Dr. @lucasbsullivan.bsky.social at @fredhutch.org finds that feeding NRF2-mutated tumors too much of a nutrient they crave makes them vulnerable to slower growth and #CellDeath. 🥼 Abstract: https://go.nature.com/4hY72Ec 📰 Press release: https://bit.ly/4xu4ceY
Show PostExcited to share our new preprint! biorxiv.org/content/10.6... We know that mitochondria make contacts with organelles, but determining whether these contacts establish functionally distinct mitochondrial populations has been challenging.
Show PostRESEARCH | (FHCC, US) ML Hart D Sokolov @lucasbsullivan.bsky.social et al Succinate acts as a competitive inhibitor of mammalian aspartate transcarbamylase leading to impaired pyrimidine biosynthesis and reduced proliferation under SDHi 🧪
Show PostI have two post doctoral positions available in my lab funded by the Wellcome Trust to develop new chemical biology approaches to studying mitochondria. Would suit those with interest in both mitochondria and chemical biology. Advert below-please forward and repost! www.cam.ac.uk/jobs/researc...
