Performing a genome-wide analysis of families afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease, a team identifies a mutant form of the kinase PKC-eta that’s mislocalized at the Golgi apparatus and starkly disrupts the behavior of cells. @RudyTanzi @NewtonLab @UCSDPharm scim.ag/44oRiD7

Cell Signaling San Diego is building on the Tsien legacy with the launch this week of one-of-a-kind Biosensor Core directed by Tsien alumnus and engineer of rainbow palette of FPs @NathanShaner! See announcement: cellsignaling.ucsd.edu/news
Today, I would like to honor the memory of Roger Y. Tsien, born on February 1, 1952. His legacy lives with all who use his technologies, including calcium sensors, fluorescent proteins, the acetoxymethyl (AM) ester, & many more! nature.com/articles/nmeth.40… #FluorescenceFriday

It was always a joy being with you! In picture below Alexandra Newton @NewtonLab , President of @iubmb, myself, Juan Guinovar and Rosa Guinovar. We were so happy in Milano last July 2024, attending the FEBS @FEBSnews Congress. I can not believe I can not be with you in 2025!
It is with great sadness that we share the news that IUBMB Past President Prof Joan Guinovart @IRBBarcelona passed away today. A brilliant biochemist and educator, his dedication, commitment, and leadership spanning two decades had an enormous impact on the IUBMB mission.
