Preprint from our #optogenetics team: novel photoswitch that allows an up to 400-fold induction of target gene expression by blue light! Perfectly suited to express biotherapeutics! Great collaboration @IIIBonn @MoeglichLab #ningaloobiosystems biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

Ever wondered why there is so little #microscopy of #GSDMD pores? Check out how Lisa Schiffelers used #Nanobodies to stabilize monomeric GSDMD in the plasma membrane, to dissect the steps of pore formation, and to develop some new ideas for therapy. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Matt made it onto the CSHL board! He'll present his most recent work later this morning #cshlimmune Link to his preprint below!
Replying to @biorxivpreprint
@biorxivpreprint #2 from Matt newly identifies increased cytosolic sodium as a common activator of the #NLRP3 inflammasome in human macrophages. Endo/lysosomal damage results in Na driven cell swelling which causes K efflux, and inhibits trafficking biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
