Barbora Knotkova, Author at preLights

I am currently a PhD candidate at the biochemistry centre of the University of Heidelberg, Germany. I am interested in cellular organisation: how proteins are targeted to the right place in the cell, how different compartments are created and especially how all of this is achieved on a molecular level. In my PhD I use biochemical methods to decipher the role of membrane contact sites in shaping the inner membrane of mitochondria. I have joined preLights in December 2022.

Curvature Sensing and Membrane Remodeling of the VPS37A N-terminal Domain during Autophagy

This preprint has now been published in Communications Biology on March 15, 2024. Congratulations to the authors! The biggest change between the preprint and published manuscript is that all experiments relating to the membrane remodelling activity of Vps37A have been omitted. It is quite difficult to show membrane remodelling of liposomes as membrane deformation artefacts…

November in preprints – the CellBio edition

This is the first community-driven preList! A group of preLighters, with expertise in different areas of cell biology, have worked together to create this preprint reading lists for researchers with an interest in cell biology. Categories include: 1) cancer cell biology 2) cell cycle and division 3) cell migration and cytoskeleton 4) cell organelles and organisation 5) cell signalling and mechanosensing 6) genetics/gene expression
