Very (very!!) happy to share our latest publication, "PPTC7 maintains mitochondrial protein content by suppressing receptor-mediated mitophagy", out today in @NatureComms. 1/n nature.com/articles/s4146…
First PhD completed in our lab!! We are so proud of you Dr @DienGiang , your hard work has paid off! 👩🏻🎓🥳
Late to the Twitter party, but wanted to highlight this excellent study from @LabPagan that provides fundamental insights into how mitophagy is regulated. An elegant mechanism that puts ubiquitin at the centre stage -this from a pathway that is meant to be ubiquitin independent!

Really, really humbled to have had the opportunity to work closely with @DienGiang on this project! 🧫 Go check out some of the cool things we saw!

Really nice study from the lab of Julia Pagan showing a central role for the F-box protein FBXL4 in ubiquitation and degradation of mitophagy regulators BNIP3 and NIX. @LabPagan. @UQ_News biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A peculiar bacterial enzyme has allowed researchers to achieve what even the popular CRISPR–Cas9 genome-editing system couldn’t manage: targeted changes to the genomes of mitochondria, cells’ crucial energy-producing structures. go.nature.com/2ZtWSTa
Mitochondria, the powerhouses inside cells, have been gene-edited for the first time bit.ly/2ZMzbEs
A handful of genetic and structural analyses have identified a key feature of #COVID19 — a protein on its surface — that might explain why it infects human cells so readily. go.nature.com/3aGqFdQ
News & Views: A process termed ubiquitination mediates the regulated destruction of cellular proteins, thereby preventing disease or infection. Structural data now reveal how a crucial regulator of ubiquitination enzymes coordinates this process. go.nature.com/31UEVfT
