Together with working groups in Portugal and the USA, we were able to describe the first new peroxin in twenty years and describe its function in yeast and human cells. The work has now been published in Nature Cell Biology.
moreTwo Master's thesis projects on the mass spectrometric analysis of peroxisomes are now being advertised again in the Warscheid working group.

We are delighted to have Sristi Chakroborty as a new member in the group.
moreWhat happens in cells when peroxisomes are missing? This study by Hirak Das sheds light on the far-reaching consequences of the loss of these essential cell organelles - with the help of state-of-the-art omics technologies.

Daniel was able to convince the jury with his presentation on how the new peroxin Pex39 coordinates protein import in yeast and humans and was awarded the prize for the “Best Short Talk” presentation.
moreAfter a long application process and final approval by the German Research Foundation, the Warscheid lab will receive two new high-performance mass spectrometers with LC coupling and a liquid handling system for automated sample preparation this fall! We will soon be moving into a Thermo Orbitrap Ascend and a Thermo Orbitrap Astral, both of which are the latest cutting-edge systems in the tribrid and high-throughput class.
