ONLINE NOW! Subcellular mitochondrial heterogeneity enables opposing metabolic demands, by @brandontwchen.bsky.social, Yatrik Shah and @lyssiotislab.bsky.social, discussing the recent work by @keunwooryu.bsky.social et al. Read it for free until March 19th at: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kWLq3jDgW...

(A) Oxidative mitochondria, in red, retain cristae to house the electron transport chain, comprising complexes CI, CII, CIII, CIV, and CV. Glutamine metabolism in the oxidative tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle fuels ATP synthesis. Oxidative mitochondria can be identified by the retention of CV expression. Reductive mitochondria, in blue, lose cristae and use reducing potential to drive reductive ornithine and proline biosynthesis from glutamine. Reductive mitochondria distinctly present with pyrroline-5-carboxylase synthase (P5CS) filaments. (B) Reductive mitochondria in which P5CS has been oligomerized into filaments are sequestered via mitochondrial fission, a process that can be mediated by dynamin-like protein 1 (DRP1). Mitochondrial fusion sequesters oxidative mitochondria. This process can be driven by mitofusin 1 and 2 (MFN1/2).

The end of an era. @brandontwchen.bsky.social brought us kicking & screaming into cell biology, and what an exciting journey it’s been. We are so very proud of everything he’s accomplished! Join us 1/17 for his defense. Thereafter… watch out NYC, here he comes!!

Our new preprint is now online! Here we describe in detail our strategy to isolate bacteria and fungi from pancreatic cancer patients. We also characterized a newly isolated Klebsiella oxytoca strain (UMKO1) in more detail. Thank you to all the co-authors and mentors! @lyssiotislab.bsky.social
