Research highlights
Lots of exciting things recently! Miao’s biography by Liangzhu laboratory The sperm DMT paper is highlighted by Liangzhu laboratory and BioArt The axoneme structures is briefed in Nature and promoted in BioArt. See also the report by University College London
Cell paper! Sperm DMT and male infertility
The first publication of the Gui lab is online in Cell. We revealed the structures of mouse and human sperm DMTs and identified many sperm-specific microtubule inner proteins (MIPs). Moreover, combining whole exome sequencing and cell biological analysis, we identified a new subtype of asthenozoospermia, MIVA (MIP-variant-associated asthenozoospermia). This was a great collaboration with Jianping … Read more
Revealing the atomic detail of the ciliary skeleton
Miao’s postdoc work in the Brown lab has been online on Nature. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06140-2 This work uncovered the structures of axoneme from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii flagella and human respiratory cilia. The ~200 proteins identified in our study have implications for PCD/MMAF diagnosis. We also revealed how gene mutations affect ciliary motility and structure by checking the respiratory … Read more
Welcome Huang, our first postdoc!
We are delighted to welcome Huang to join the Gui lab. Huang worked on the actin-based stereocilia in the inner ear during his Ph.D. He will be looking into the microtubule-based cilia.
Bench work started
On April 10th, Bo and Miao started the bench work.
Cilia and ciliopathies conference
Miao was presenting at the 4th National Cilia and Ciliopathies Conference on April 1st at Hangzhou. Very happy to make lots of new friends and discuss science in person. Bo and Xixi also enjoyed the conference and shared some exiting moments at our group meeting.
First lab dinner
The first lab dinner on the last day of Febrary. Bo, Xixi and me enjoyed the seafood buffet a lot!
The Gui lab has opened.
Our lab locates in the Room 4A of Zhejiang University Medical Center. The Titan Krios and GPU cluster are already running! And welcome Bo Li (李博), a research assistant and the second member of the Gui lab.
