Our study, "Reconstruction of the human amylase locus reveals ancient duplications seeding modern-day variation," has just been published in Science. This thread will provide a brief overview of how gene duplications have shaped modern variation in the amylase locus.

Excited to see this published! We knew that lipid accumulation in necroptosis contributes to membrane permeabilization but we did not know why lipids accumulated! Our study reveals SREBP activation to be key for lipid accumulations in necroptosis @UBChemistry @UBScience
🚨Check our latest infographic by Dr Gunes Ekin Atilla-Gokcumen @AtillaLab 🚨 "SREBP activation contributes to fatty acid accumulations in necroptosis" 💀 Read the full article here 👉bit.ly/45hRyln Submit your work 👉 bit.ly/3KBOnfX

Congratulations @AlecMillner and all the finalists Preshit Abhyankar (@LacyLab_UB alum) and Thomas Sobiech (Gong Lab alum)! Great science to wrap up the week; from lipids to air stable metal complexes to foldamers!
Congratulations to @AlecMillner, graduate of the Atilla Lab @AtillaLab, on winning the 2023 best dissertation competition! 🍾🎉
