A few GlycoDraw-related highlights of the upcoming glycowork v1.6 update (dropping in a few weeks): - our very own rendering engine (GlycoDraw for the masses, thanks to glycorender!); - SNFG-gradients; - automated Alt text; - reverse-highlighting; - even more support for highly complex sequences

New paper out! Would you like to fluorescently label the plasma membrane in live, fixed or permeabilized cells? I tested different lipid structures and labelling approaches to decide what makes a good membrane labelling probe for such imaging experiments! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Specificity in glycosylation! Have you ever wondered why some glycosyltransferases recognize glycoproteins, some glycolipids, and some both? Together with @kmikolajczyk.bsky.social and @rkaczmarekdr.bsky.social, we try to answer that complicated question. #glycotime tinyurl.com/5b6kxhp3

Why are biological membranes asymmetric, with different lipids in the two bilayer leaflets? Discovered in the 70s, lipid asymmetry is linked to many cellular processes, but why the cell needs it is largely unclear. @pavelbarahtjan.bsky.social addresses this question: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It’s #lipidtime. The authors capture oscillations in the abundance of different phospholipid species during the yeast cell cycle, suggesting regulation and interplay of phospholipid synthesis, membrane fluidity, and metabolic efficiency during cell division www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Groundbreaking study in Cell from @leventallab.bsky.social: phospholipid asymmetry is a defining feature of the plasma membrane and cholesterol fills the holes — major implications for how this membrane works. A #lipidtime must-read! www.cell.com/cell/abstrac...

1/8 Exciting new work with Agu @mangiarotti.bsky.social @mpici.bsky.social ! 🚀 Our latest study explores how lipid packing and cholesterol regulate the interaction of biomolecular condensates with membranes. It turns out, it’s not just about membrane phase. Packing is the key! 🧵👇 rdcu.be/eelLq

🚨New preprint: There's this overlooked phospholipid with 3 acyl tails called NAPE that is made during ischemia. We identified its interactome & found it regulates lactate flux, suggesting metabolic functions in response to hypoxia. Congrats to Dylan Chiu! doi.org/10.26434/che... #lipidtime #chembio

New paper out 🎇 It has been 13 years since @owenlabuob.bsky.social and co. published a stellar protocol on how to measure membrane order with smart probes! Since then, there has been new dyes, imaging modes and biology! We wrote a protocol for Nature Protocols: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New PI born 🎁 In case you are one of the few who doesn't know @pablo-carravilla.bsky.social , he is starting his lab in Bilbao! Having Pablo in the lab as postdoc was a true privilege! Vividly remembering the first time we discussed this (Fig 1a) and today when he is ready to be a leader (Fig 1b).
