Very happy to be in Nashville today for #zebrafishzunday before my talk @vanderbilt.edu tomorrow, so here's a sneak preview of differential clearance of monomeric (turquoise) vs. oligomeric (red) amyloid beta from the zebrafish brain

Glad to share the final version of our story about the UBR4 complex, an E4 ligase protein quality control hub @science.org. Now with more cryo-EM structures and a deeper dive into substrate recognition, especially escaped mitochondrial proteins @clausenlab.bsky.social www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Cells can form patterns within themselves just like embryos do. How? Connie Yan's new preprint shows how the anterior-posterior cytoskeleton pattern in Stentor is dictated by regionalized scaffolding proteins www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Be my neighbor! @rwjms.bsky.social Neuroscience is hiring! jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/258...

Our protocol for gene editing is online and all plasmids are on @addgene.bsky.social! CRISPR away everybody and get in touch if you need anything 🤩

Very happy to see our contribution to a better understanding of Hsp70/90 #chaperones online! Congrats and a big thank you to all co-authors, collaborators and reviewers! #proteostasis @poepsel-lab.bsky.social @crc1430.bsky.social @unidue-zmb.bsky.social

Excited to share our lab’s first publication! A review on how pooled protein tagging with ligandable domains is unlocking proteome-scale biology. Spearheaded by the talented @kelarrimore.bsky.social. www.frontiersin.org/articles/10....

So excited to share that I am one of the new @hhmi.org freeman hrabowsi scholars with so many other amazing new PIs. Check out the full list here www.hhmi.org/programs/fre...

Our ‘Cell Scientist to Watch’ is Francesca Bottanelli @franbottanelli.bsky.social‬. We discover more about Fran’s career path, her approach to scientific mentorship and her dream to start a band! journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Excited to see this out in @science.org today!! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Excited to to see our collaboration with @gburslem.bsky.social published today! This is part of our ongoing long term goal of achieving scalable non-disruptive and direct imaging and perturbation of the endogenous proteome

Thrilled to see our work now in @cp-molcell.bsky.social! It was an incredible privilege to do my postdoc with @ophirshalem.bsky.social and work alongside the super talented Steph Sansbury and our amazing co-authors. Excited to keep building on this research in our new lab at @rwjms.bsky.social!

Bsky vs Twitter engagement difference now 50-fold...

New paper online today! Check out @cewc9.bsky.socials review on how acetylation mediated protein degradation impacts cancer! Thanks for the invite to contribute to the 10th anniversary special issue of Trends in Cancer! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

We have a postdoc position available for a very cool collaborative project! Synthetic chemistry expertise is a must! Unfortunately due to the funding source, this position is only available to US citizens or permanent residents. chemistryjobs.acs.org/job/postdoct...

I am extremely proud to see our work about Hepatitis B now published in @cellpress.bsky.social From basic research to identifying the key step of infection & a potential first drug for curing this devastating disease. This has been an incredible journey.🧵 www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Long in the making but our protocol for gene editing is online! FAB CRISPR is super easy and allows the generation of N and C terminal fusions with TurboID, SNAP, Halo and mStayGold. A single cloninf step to generate HDR templates! arxiv.org/abs/2502.12675 1/n

1/n Excited to share our new preprint! Using live imaging in Drosophila embryos, we show that RNA Pol II clusters switch from sites of initiation to elongation during zygotic genome activation and that they are stably associated with an active gene: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The Trump NIH is banning hires of new students and postdocs. This is devastating for NIH research and will result in a lost generation of researchers at the institution. Heard from a applicant today: "A lot of people are banking their entire careers on the [NIH student programs]..." #NIH 🧪 1/

The Serebrenik Lab is hiring! Join us in unraveling proteostasis with pooled protein tagging and manipulation! Interested postdocs can learn more & meet other excellent labs at the Rutgers Postdoc Peek (Apr 3-4, 2025). Apply by 1/8/25: rutgers.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Single cells can learn without a brain, but how? Our new preprint from @deeparajan.bsky.social describes a model for habituation in Stentor coeruleus, based on receptor internalization and recycling, along with new experiments inspired by the model. 1/n www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Happy to share our new paper where we explore why dCas9-KRAB protein levels drop so drastically after neuronal differentiation in WTC11 and KOL2.1J iPSC lines. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
