A genome-wide CRISPR screen identifies GRA38 as a key regulator of lipid homeostasis during Toxoplasma gondii adaptation to lipid-rich conditions - Nature Communications Here, using a genome-wide CRISPR screen, Bitew et al. identify GRA38, a phosphatidic acid phosphatase, as a key factor in Toxoplasma gondii adaptation to lipid-rich conditions via keeping lipid balanc...

Thrilled to share some great news—my new paper is published in @natcomms.nature.com and out today!
We conducted a genome-wide CRISPR screen in Toxoplasma gondii and identified GRA38, a dense granule protein, as a key regulator of lipid homeostasis www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excited to share our new preprint:

We uncover how Toxoplasma senses host lipid levels and adapts metabolically to survive in different nutrient environments. www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-6...

Huge thanks to all collaborators and colleagues! @saeijlab.bsky.social @apicolipid.bsky.social

🔥 Open postdoc position in human inflammation-driven control of infection! 🔥
Join me at the University of Geneva, Switzerland this summer as I’m moving my Wellcome-funded research activity to the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Medicine! (1/5)

Please share!

Congratulations with your new position! Inspiring to see you starting your lab again. The community is better with you in it.

Congratulations Ira!
