Hematology X biophysics = new leukemia pathogenesis paradigm! Our collaborative work with @RibackLab on NPM1c-mutant leukemia is live @CellCellPress! Multiple oncoproteins form similar nuclear condensates that massively drive leukemia-gene transcription!

(1/10) How do diverse leukemia mutations converge on the same molecular program?
In our new study @CellCellPress,the @RibackLab and @Goodell_Lab show that disparate mutations rewire shared protein networks to form nuclear condensates called coordinating bodies (C-bodies).🫧

Excited to share @RibackLab’s first paper in @CellCellPress. Together with @Goodell_Lab, we show that diverse leukemia mutations converge on a biophysically indistinguishable nuclear condensate—the C-body. Huge thanks to @Gandhar_Datar, @sciencyelmira, and co-authors!

In lab's #FIRSTPREPRINT, we present methods to measure nanometer organization around & between specific proteins in condensates. We uncover unexpected heterogeneity for a liquid-like phase with local meshwork spanning 10-50nm, stemming from ribosome biogenesis in the nucleolus.

Congrats to @RibackLab members @Gandhar_Datar (co-advised with @Goodell_Lab) for winning the 3rd place talk award on AML condensate form and function and Kris for her @VisiTech_UK #iSIM microscopy image of nucleoli being chosen for the MCB retreat cover!
23 Mar 2023
It’s the end of the day at the MCB retreat and we’re celebrating all the poster and talk awardees! Amazing job by the organizers and participants! Plus we got to see some animals at the Houston zoo :)

Hey everyone, the @RibackLab is at #BPS2023! Unfortunately, I was not able to attend the @BiophysicalSoc Annual Meeting this year as planned due to getting COVID. I'll miss seeing you all and learning about the latest research! 1/5

The iSIM impresses us with super-resolution (without decon!) without sacrificing speed or field of view. Here are images from @Gandhar_Datar (phase separation preacher to the @Goodell_Lab) and amazing roton @CalebRosenblad! Both taken with help of microscope master Archish! 2/3

We are indebted to @JLeeLab for his critical role in this process from brainstorming to testing! Additionally to @CPRITTexas, without which the purchase of this jaw-dropping microscope would not be possible! 3/3
