It seems to me that in Cell Biology / Development / Genetics the "candidate gene approach" has become pretty much standard. Can anyone direct me to a paper (review, commentary, theory), discussing the basis, and the pros and cons of this approach? Asking for a friend...

It can be a bit disappointing when the mutant is just like the wild-type, but one can look at the bright side, it's just as beautiful as the wild-type. #DevBio #DevelopmentalBiology #CellBiology #CellBio #AsymmetricCellDivision #Celegans #Embryo

#introduction. I am a plant developmental geneticist. The lab addresses a fundamental biological question: how does morphogenesis translate genotype into form? To this end we study signaling at the plasma membrane - cell wall interface and we investigate how mechanical forces influence tissue shape using 3D digital ovules.

This is a brief highlight of a fascinating article on neutrophils. A great title too! Knobbly indeed.

Our latest #preprints list focuses on research using microscopy to answer questions in #cellbio and #devbio. As always, let us know if we are missing a recent #preprint that you love (including your own!)
#preprints #cellbio #DevBio #preprint
In their #OpenAccess Review, Marlieke Jongsma, Nina Bakker & Jacques Neefjes describe the endosomal dance, and its coordination by molecular motors, which transports lipids, proteins and nutrients in the cell.

For #TBT we are focusing on camera alignment.
We go back to 1862, when
@J_Cell_Sci
was the ‘Quarterly Journal of Microscopical Science’ and a paper from O N Rood on the practical application of #photography to the #microscope, requiring a 7 foot long frame!

Hooray, we’ve made it to #FluorescenceFriday! This week we are admiring the beauty of the mitotic spindle with the Pelegri lab at the University of Wisconsin. They show that Prc1l localises to the microtubule apparatus in metaphase and that it plays a role in microtubule reorganisation during cytokinesis.

It’s #EMMonday and we’re looking at #mitochondria morphology.
Gabriella Robertson, Vivian Gama and colleagues examine mitochondria behaviour in fibroblasts derived from patients with EMPF1 due to mutations in DRP1.
