The A-minor switch - check out our latest preprint (link below)

Imagine if one of RNA’s most common 3D contacts could switch off and on. We identified the A-minor switch that can reversibly “escape” their tertiary contacts, revealing a dynamic regulatory layer in RNA structure (shown by NMR & Cryo-EM and assayed in ribosomes). #RNA #NMR #dynamics #ribosome

curious about dynamic states in DNA or better methods to detect them? Have a look at our recent work using 1H R1ρ RD NMR on hoogsteen to WCF equilibrium.

Registration for the 2026 CCPN Conference in Bath from 22-24 June is now open at ccpn.ac.uk/outreach/con.... Join us for some exciting talks on dynamics and how to link NMR data with MD, plus many opportunities to get to know new people and catch up with old friends. Hope to see lots of you there!

that is kind of cool: #RNA

the pyramid scheme of publishing... : " But publishers have an economic incentive to accept even subpar papers authored by guest editors, the researchers write, because guest editors work for free and recruit other authors to contribute to special issues." from: www.science.org/content/arti...

Trump: “I raise tolls on everyone opposing Greenland to become American.” Me (Swe/Ger): bring it on! A bit of hardship is nothing for the right thing to do. If we just could solve the Ukrainian occupation so by Russia so simply.

Thanks @curiousdina.bsky.social for your amazing talk! I learned a lot and just shocked my first year students with eukaryotes are probably coming from archea :) So cool so many different subjects covered! 🤩 Happy to have had you at @cml-uu.bsky.social

Our work presented today at the www.youtube.com/@CASPRNASIG online seminar! @bussigio.bsky.social will report on the #CASP16 solvation challenge and 2D ensemble reconstructions using #DMS data

One more paper by the “in-cell” NMR person looking weird. pubpeer.com/publications...

The adrenaline is still kicking from the incredible enthusiasm and support, everybody who invites a friend to try q.e.d today gets a free physiological relevance! 🍷

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

When I learned about the cruelties of SS and Nazi's in school (I'm german) I always wondered, how this could happened... I never imagined seeing it happening again and getting the explanation in front of my eyes...

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Do current publishing and carreer assessment practices limit scientific progress? Journals basically evaluate your recent citation numbers when you ausbmit to the editorial board... HOWEVER: novel research areas have low number of participants and publications -> low number of citations

It’s out :) you thought it was weird for DNA to be 1% in a Hoogsteen base pair instead of a Watson-Crick-Franklin one? Well there is more:

Big thanks to my group of doing all this wonderful research 😍 and to @uu.se and my department IMBIM for nominating me and the Fernström price organization. www.uu.se/en/news/2025...

Core achievement unlocked!! Congrats to Fabrizio amd all authors!!

please #NMR #RNA community, carefullly review papers! These are 2 blatantly manipulated papers that should have never gone through the peer-review system. Same for editors. If not us, who will stop this?? big thanks @elisabethbik.bsky.social 😍 without you we wouldn't have scienc left!

Check out our new method for targeted DNP-enhanced NMR of RNA using site-directed spin labeling, now live as a preprint on ChemRxiv: doi.org/10.26434/che... A fruitful collaboration with my colleague @rubindg.bsky.social and the group of Prof. Snorri Th. Sigurdsson from the University of Iceland.

New preprint out! We introduce an AsymPol spin labeling for RNA, enabling targeted DNP NMR with up to 27× sensitivity boost at low concentrations. Read here: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr... #RNA #NMR #DNP #StructuralBiology #SpinLabeling #ChemRxiv

I am looking at a publication and wonder if some of the images are manipulated/manifactured. Does anyone have a good image checking tool? In days of AI such a thing should exist... (me: academic in Sweden, if that helps with licenses) THANKS!

What #biophysical process steers one #microRNA to select one #mRNA over another? Trying to decipher this for miR-34a: our long standing efforts with the labs of @anderssonlab.bsky.social and Alan Chen (SUNY RNA) are finally out: academic.oup.com/nar/article/... Thanks for the exciting journey 🤩😍

Very interesting paper: RNA adjusting to starvation

While this paper looks interesting, let me just say (again) that (essentially all) NMR ensembles in the PDB are NOT thermodynamic ensembles or meant to represent these. They are "uncertainty ensembles" and using them to benchmark machine learning (or other) models of dynamics is not a good idea.

yeah! our paper is out! Congratulations to David and Emma 🥳

Want to work in amazing environment? I moved to my current place two years and I couldn't be happier! We are looking for a Associate Professor (wit possibility to promotion to Full Professor)

Lab alumnus Marvin Albers is going places! Congratulations 🤩

few days left to join the GRC! (and 2 spots left for selected talks). Looking forward to discuss computational approaches in NMR with you in the beautiful mountains of Switzerland #NMR

In Swedish: how the increasing rent (taken by the state) is bankrupting Swedish universities…

big congratulations 👏! What an amazing project 🤩

Curious of how computation or machine learning can bring NMR further?? Come to beautiful Switzerland and the GRC! Still a few spaces left.

Thank you for the opportunity to meet all of you online! Looking forward to it. Especially interesting for folks that is curious about relaxation experiments and also DNP-enhanced solid state and what we can learn about dynamics.

Protein dynamics was the first research to enchant me >10yrs ago, but I left in PhD bc I couldn't find big experimental data to evaluate models. Today w @ginaelnesr.bsky.social, I'm thrilled to share the big dynamics data I've been dreaming of, and the mdl we trained w them: Dyna-1. 📝: rb.gy/de5axp

And the program is out! Please sign up and join our Computational NMR meeting in beautiful Switzerland. **Abstract deadline 26th of March for selection to talks.**

nice to see my colleagues work in @narjournal.bsky.social Congratulations - super interesting
