Images of the protein Ξ±-actinin-4 binding actin filaments in weak and strong modes, derived from cryo-electron microscopy data. Force promotes a transition from the weak mode to the strong mode, strengthening the interaction.
Very excited to share our latest preprint, where we visualize the impact of force on the catch bonding actin crosslinker Ξ±-actinin-4. Led by @tri-i.bsky.social MD-PhD student Alfred Chin, a great collaboration with Glen Hocky's lab.

Just sharing this here again! Drop a line if you looking for a long term lab tech jobβ¦!
π¨ #postdoc to be hired in the Paluch Lab π¨
If you know anyone experienced with and, more importantly, excited about nanoscale architecture of #actincortex and super-res & electron #microscopy do encourage them to applyπ
Amazing colleagues, can only recommend π

First preprint of the @pollyfordyce.bsky.social and @dunnlab.bsky.social collaboration! We used high-throughput microfluidics for sequence-strength mapping at the single-molecule level. Our new tech allowed us to discover a fundamental nonequilibrium property of multivalent systems. 1/13
We are one of the potential host labs for a Lecturer position in Molecular Genetics & Genomics β please share, and get in touch for more info! π§¬π£
Actin directly interacts with vimentin intermediate filaments, enhancing both actin polymerization and nucleation! Fantastic experiments done by @lilianpaty.bsky.social with @romet-jegou-lab.bsky.social, now backed by our theory.

Huge congrats to @manuelthery.bsky.social and all the Cytomorpho lab. The "Living Architectures" performance at @museeorsay.bsky.social was breathtakingly beautiful
Latest work from the lab by Aude Nommick et al., in which we propose a "size-scaling" model for microtubule force exertion that regulates centrosome centration vs decentration during embryo development!

Cytoplasmic crowding acts as a porous medium that hinders macromolecular diffusivity.
Plus: a clever way to measure cell volume.
