Our manuscript, which describes a negative regulator of autophagy and immune-related secretion, is out! It features a direct physical interaction between autophagy and vesicle transport, as predicted and visualized by AlphaFold-Multimer. Great teamwork with Yasin Dagdas lab

It was wonderful to welcome our crop transformation colleagues Laurens Pauwels Dr. Götz Hensel Pouneh Pouramini to the John Innes Centre today. It was a very productive day👍 looking forward to future collaborations. Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf VIB Plant Science Simon Griffith Sadiye Hayta MarkSmedley
