In MinDE, ATP-dependent membrane association of the MinD ATPase is antagonized by its ATPase-activating protein MinE. Schwille and Mizuuchi labs have shown MinDE patterning on bilayers in vitro. We found that MinDE circuits robustly drive protein patterning in mammalian cells.

Simply outstanding work here; and a really creative application of optogenetic-based signaling controllers to study a higher-order emergent process like development

Our paper "Signaling dynamics control cell fate in the early Drosophila embryo" is out today @Dev_Cell ! I'm *really* proud of the work & Heath Johnson, the postdoc who led the project. Read the published paper here (free access for the next 50 days):

@foodskop @NeedhiBhalla @born2raisecell @BementLab ohhhhh yes we've definitely chatted about this stuff : ) the parallels how the wave generators for native cortical actin dynamics his group sees are controlled and this system point to some universal themes for patterning

Engineered "T" cells for drug delivery... but not the kind you're probably thinking of!

🔥New preprint! We hijacked secretion systems of brain-infiltrating parasites so they secrete therapeutic proteins inside neurons. We propose this could be used in the future to deliver drugs through the BBB as the parasite is mostly asymptomatic in immunocompetent individuals

@PrakashLab I smile every time I see them in the wild -- it always makes me nostalgic for the first Foldscope outing you took me on that helped me remember why I loved science so much in the first place🥲 as well as how much scientific mystery there is in every drop of nasty water...

@dudin_o @Eliott_Flaum Never saw motility phenotype with any actin inhibitors- and we threw the book at 'em ( @guille_rochelle had me try everything but maybe not working?). Dynamics appear driven by ciliary activity + anchoring. Nice review on peculiarities of actin in ciliates:

@dudin_o Actin in ciliates isn't usually exciting (a downer for Team Actin at meetings) -- but helical microtubule cytoskeleton and contractile filaments (centrin) ass. with cell/neck morphology rearrangements during capture/engulfment are imo stunning! @Eliott_Flaum has taken great imgs:

@DumontLab This is awesome Sophie!! Been excited to see the finished product ever since I saw @lilanearhing 's poster on this at the GRC a few years back -- the parallels in this to how antagonism modulates signaling behaviors is uncanny (to me anyways haha). Gz!
