I'm reading the RQ paper from the Spinelli lab ( https://t.co/Gj1HjQ6gvY) and aside from the fantastic discovery, I have to say that the writing, the actual scientific prose, is just so, so good. It's plain and direct and compelling. No one writes like this anymore (that I read):

Valeros et al. identify rhodoquinone (RQ), an electron carrier present in mammalian mitochondria, that can deliver electrons to fumarate instead of O2 as the terminal electron acceptor. The authors...

Exciting new work on control of lactate metabolism! Congrats @Won_Dong_Lee!
Lactate elevations are a hallmark of human disease, but the mechanisms regulating lactate levels remain poorly understood. Today in @Cell_Metabolism, we uncover key mechanisms of lactate homeostasis. https://t.co/DjeZQ3bZS7

Super grateful to receive a MIRA R35 from @NIGMS @NIH to support @mcbride_lab @RutgersU #EMSOP @RutgersCancer over the next 5 years to advance our understanding of metabolic control of epigenetic methylation. If you are a #newPI, you should definitely consider applying for this!
