I am delighted to share the latest preprint from our lab, which was work that was conceived and led by @JTenthorey during her postdoc and during the first few months of her independent lab at UCSF.

TL;DR: Indels matter. A lot.

New work from our @ASAP_Research team: nature.com/articles/s41594-0…. Parkinson’s disease-linked LRRK2’s closest relative, LRRK1 is tightly regulated via different mechanisms than LRRK2. Great collaboration with @aleschziner, @Daugherty_Lab, and Knapp labs

Also, check out my episode of “Let’s Meet the Virologists” to learn a little about me and my career. Thanks to @lbthackray for having me on!
Meet Dustin Glasner @drglasner who studies the interface between #viruses and #innate_immunity. Check out his #ASV2023 Talk W8-1: Recognition of non-self viral mRNAs by the IFIT2 and IFIT3 heterodimer #LoveVirology lmtv.podbean.com/e/lmtv-epis…

With #ASV2023 only a few days away, this seems like a good time to resurface here on Twitter. Come hear all about my research with @Daugherty_Lab on Saturday in the Innate Immune workshop. Can’t wait to connect with my fellow virologists for the first time since 2016!

Biologists led by the @Daugherty_Lab have identified a previously unknown way that our immune system detects viruses. The immune protein CARD8 acts as a trip wire to detect a range of viruses, including the virus that causes COVID. today.ucsd.edu/story/researc… @PLOSBiology

Got a chance to share our story on a podcast with @Daugherty_Lab! Also my first time speaking on a podcast 🥳

Bacterial genetic origin in vertebrate eye evolution: @atnjoly recommends this @ChinmayK98 @Daugherty_Lab study in @PNASNews that finds interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein was inherited by horizontal gene transfer into the vertebrate genome

A new study shows that IRBP, a protein necessary for vision in vertebrates, was acquired from bacteria over 500 million years ago. @Daugherty_Lab @ChinmayK98

Eye-opening origin story: Scientists traced the origin of a unique vision protein back 500 million years to bacteria. “It’s a massive shift because this is an entirely new piece of genetic material that’s been introduced from bacteria." - @Daugherty_Lab

For #SeeingDiversity we’re featuring @dalexstevens! As a grad student w @SamReckPeterson Alex focuses on using evolutionary guided approaches w the @Daugherty_Lab to uncover novel conflicts btw viruses & the host intracellular trafficking machinery, illustrated here by @GraceIHsu
Matt Daugherty retweeted
@dalexstevens in an awesome collaboration with Chris Beierschmitt in the @Daugherty_Lab shows that the dynein activating adaptor-NINL-plays a role in the interferon response to viral infections. Some viruses can “knock out” NINL through cleavage with their 3C or 3C-like proteases

New preprint! Parkinson’s Disease-linked LRRK2 and non-PD-linked LRRK1 have distinct mechanisms for regulating their kinase activity. Awesome @ucsdbiosciences collaboration with @aleschziner and @Daugherty_Lab supported by @ASAP_Research.

💥Our new paper just out @ScienceMagazine!
Antiviral activity of a human protein of retroviral origin
A study led fearlessly by @jofrank1088
We propose that the human genome encodes a deep pool of antiviral proteins derived from retroviruses!
