The research findings of the B01 Sato Team and the Kanki Group on the discovery of a novel factor that promotes mitochondrial fission have been published in EMBO Reports. This study reveals a previously uncharacterized regulator that enhances mitochondrial division, offering new insights into mitochondrial dynamics.
A new study from the B02 Kiuchi Group has been published in Nature Communications. The paper reports the discovery of novel molecular evidence illuminating how the endosymbiotic bacterium Wolbachia influences host sex determination.
2025/12/25 Research findings by Dr. Noritsuki and colleagues of the B01 Sato Group have been published in Journal of Cell Science. The newly published study uncovers a molecular mechanism by which sperm‑derived organelles are specifically recognized and directed toward degradation after fertilization.
