Employing proximity #proteomics, a team has parsed the interactome of the #adrenomedullin receptor formed by RAMP3 and the #GPCR CLR in #lymphatic endothelial cells and identified the molecular motor MYO6 as a key member. @CaronLabUNC @UNC_CBP scim.ag/4r7SG6x

I'm delighted to present TWO new preprints from my lab, led by @MC_Zanellati and @ChihHsuanHsu1, about how #organelles remodel throughout #NeuronalDifferentiation. Check out the tweetorials about their papers below:
Cells come in many shapes and sizes, with diverse physiological functions. But how do #organelles and their interaction networks remodel during #differentiation of stem cells into different cell types? Here’s what we discovered about neuronal differentiation: 1/13
