Crosslinking Mass Spectrometry #XLMS is great – but cumbersome when it comes to map data on 3D structures. No worries, we got your back with XMAS! your soon-to-be favorite @UCSFChimeraX bundle.
The pandemic project from the mighty @IlseLagerwaard + @xlixnkx, Andris & I.

On my way to #CellBio2024 in San Diego! I will talk in the "Physical Biology of the cytoplasm" subgroup on saturday at 12.15pm in Room 33B! Come if we want to hear about our last results on competitive networks!

A few more letters... and we can finally write amino acid sequence with protein structure encoded by amino acid sequence? 🧬🤔😀

Adios @elonmusk, see you on @pascalalbanese.bsky.social … i’ve been procrastinating this for too long now

In this Goldacre review we explore a phenomenon of ‘PSII-less photosynthesis’ which has evolved in heterocysts of Cyanobacteria, bundle sheath chloroplasts of C4 plants, and probably also in the nitroplast! Thanks @asps_ozplants and FPB for the invitation! publish.csiro.au/FP/FP24185

🍂NEW VIDEO🍂
All through Autumn, trees race against time to recycle their chlorophyll--and basically everything else in their leaves.
But why go through all this effort?
The answers are honestly mind-blowing:

This is the most detailed model of a human cell to date, obtained using x-ray, NMR and cryoelectron microscopy datasets.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
“Obtained” is potentially misleading—this is a simulation. Attribution to the original creators:

#NotTheCover @CellCellPress but I want to share this beautiful colorized image of diatom cells on an EM grid before FIB milling. This stage of the workflow isn't shown in our PyShell papers.
Fantastic work by @benoitgallet & Martin Oeggerli.
The papers: cell.com/cell/issue?pii=S009…

These laureates are VERY deserving. But an important addendum—no model could be trained without 40 years of Helen Berman and others’ work at the PDB, and we would not be certain of AF’s success without 30 years of John Moult and others’ work on CASP. Hats off to them as well 🥂
BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

⚠️ Tag with Caution ⚠️
New preprint led by @DoernerKerstin in @MariaHondele lab with contributions from @fancaoErik on our side on the effects of tagging with FPs and peptides on condensation and phase separation
Summary: It’s complicated

Brilliant work by @DemulderManon, @Jorgendottir, Ginga, Aki, Giovanni, Genji, Yusuke, and all the rest of our collabs 🤗
Meet the PyShell!🥧🐚 Diatom pyrenoids fix up to 20% of the Earth's #CO2🌏. We discovered that their Rubisco is encased in a tight protein lattice that is essential for efficient carbon fixation and cell growth🌱
Super excited to share our new preprint📜: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
