eLife Sciences Publications is a non-profit organization that publishes the open-access journal eLife, which is funded by major scientific organizations. Randy Schekman, the Editor-in-Chief of eLife, wrote a letter of recommendation for Jarred Whitlock for his work as joint first author on a paper identifying a lipid scrambling domain in ANO6/TMEM16F, which was published in eLife. The paper provided convincing evidence that ANO6 is a phospholipid scramblase and identified the minimal region required for phosphatidylserine scrambling. Schekman praised the high quality of the research and impact of the discovery.
