Researchers have identified superparamagnetic macrophages in the livers of rock pigeons to be crucial for magnetic sensing. The finding uncovers an unexpected role for immune cells in sensory perception and may fundamentally change our understanding of animal navigation. https://scim.ag/4nTQ3nq

It's finally out! Molecular architecture of mammalian AP3:ARF1 carriers - a mechanism for lysosomal membrane protein trafficking - from a combination of #biochemistry, #cryoET and #cellbiology 📝 Paper: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🧵 Thread: subsequently #teamtomo #membranetrafficking

Very impressive paper on the structural basis of Tubulin dimers assembly and disassembly.

Happy to see the preprint of our VULCROM setup online! Thanks to our amazing collaborators we've managed to get some pretty cool cryo-CLEM images by combining cryo super-resolution and cryo-ET: doi.org/10.64898/202...

Now finally at least one structure of each of the 6 human AP complexes has been published! We are finally getting close to holistically understanding the differences/intricacies in both recruitment and vesicle formation of this family.

Super interesting paper on the evolutionary origins of an strange complex of uncertain function.

We have a preprint for you EHD2 forms rings on caveolae necks, in contrast to most EHDs forming helices. We determined its structure on membranes and show that N-term acts as a spacer By Elena, Vasya @vasiliimikirtumov.bsky.social, Jeff &Oli Daumke www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
