Congratulations to our collaborators, the Van Raamsdonk lab, on their new publication in Aging Cell doi.org/10.1111/acel.13762

Endosomal trafficking protein TBC‐2 modulates stress resistance and lifespan through DAF‐16‐depen...

Disruption of the endosomal trafficking protein TBC-2 alters the nuclear localization of the FOXO transcription factor DAF-16 in response to stress. This results in decreased upregulation of stress...

Excited to share our latest article published in @plosgenetics: journals.plos.org/plosgeneti… #plosgeneticsauthor @solucandoktoru @VTworm @McgillU @RIMUHC1

The Rab GTPase activating protein TBC-2 regulates endosomal localization of DAF-16 FOXO and lifespan

Author summary FOXO transcription factors have been shown to modulate lifespan in multiple model organisms and to be associated with longevity in humans. Here we describe a new localization of the C....

Chapter 2 of Kim's thesis is now published in Molecular Biology of the Cell! Here she found a complex-independent role for LIN-10 in promoting basolateral localization of LET-23 EGFR. molbiolcell.org/doi/abs/10.1… @thekimgauthier @MBoCjournal @ASCBiology #Celegans #worm

LIN-10 can promote LET-23 EGFR signaling and trafficking independently of LIN-2 and LIN-7 |...

The LIN-2/LIN-7/LIN-10 complex is necessary for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) basolateral membrane localization and signaling during C. elegans vulval development. Here we found that LIN-10...

Our preprint has been published today in @PeerJPreprints peerj.com/preprints/27176 #DevelopmentalBiology #Genetics

Caenorhabditis elegans germline development requires brap-2

Background. Mutations in C. elegans can produce visible and quantifiable defects in morphology, lifespan, and development. BRAP2/IMP (BRCA1-associated binding protein 2) has been characterized as an...
