BoxemLab

Two PhD positions are now available in our group, thanks to recent funding from the Dutch Research Council and @UniUtrecht! Visit our lab website (web.science.uu.nl/developmen…) or the UU careers site (uu.nl/science/careers) to apply. Please share! #devbio #Celegans

Our new preprint shows CeLINC, our optical protein-protein interaction assay, to determine whether two proteins interact in vivo. Check ik out at biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @SRemmelzwaal #Celegans

Our new article shows novel and evolutionary conserved protein BBLN-1 (bublin) is essential for intermediate filament organization and apical membrane morphology in the C. elegans gut cell.com/current-biology/ful… @sremmelzwaal @AltelaarM @JoaoJRamalho @CurrentBiology #Celegans

Our new preprint is out! @MikeBoxem lab finds evolutionary conserved BUBL-1 in #Celegans is essential for intermediate filament organization and apical membrane morphology, and may help understanding of epithelial tube morphology in mammals biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Bittersweet: our lab says goodbye to Juliane @DEinNL with a pizza lunch last week! She starts a new position @WUR. We wish her all the best and will miss her! 🥲

Check out our new paper @Dev_journal! Using CRISPR/Cas9-generated erm-1 alleles we reveal that phosphorylation of a C-terminal regulatory threonine modulates ERM-1 localization and dynamics to control actin organization and support lumen formation in development.
