Our scientists comment for Nature Metabolism
Ever wondered how information on oxidative stress is relied from mitochondria to the cytosol? https://9500d8a3-10d6-46dd-b789-a2cb14c8025e.usrfiles.com/html/2b2e4b_d767b483cae16e027c4ea8ac7906fbf4.html In the recent paper from the Wang group, Li et al describe a novel oxidation – driven mechanism concerning the power houses of the cell, mitochondria, and linking oxidation of the protein shaping mitochondria membranes (dMIC60) with removal of mitochondria […]
THINKING – The IMol Colloquia programme has started
The IMol Colloquia are the institute’s internal seminars and excellent opportunities for group leaders, students, and postdocs to present their research to colleagues. The seminars take place every two weeks and include insights into planned research, work-in-progress or ready-to-publish work. The goal of IMol Colloquia is to share our scientific achievements, stimulate the interactions within […]
Why defects in mitochondria are beneficial for longevity?
Zaktualizowano: 2 mar 2022 The surprising discovery of Maria Sladowska et al. was just published in PLOS Biology Proteins are the workhorses in the cell. However, the excess of their dysfunctional forms is dangerous. Thus, protein degradation mechanisms evolved to clear such proteins. One major protein clearance pathway involves a complex machine called the proteasome. The […]
Science is meant to be shared
