New from our lab @crick.ac.uk, in collaboration with the Enchev and Bukau labs. By studying a protein that is difficult to fold, we discover fascinating new mechanisms by which the ribosome supports protein biogenesis. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Great time in Lund to kick off the hands-on phage biology course organized by Vasili @hauryliuk.bsky.social and his team! Fantastic course and a strong line-up of lecturers throughout the week 🧬🧑🏼‍🏫🍿

Promoting ribosomal incorporation of backbone-modifying nonproteinogenic amino acids into nascent peptides by ATP-binding cassette family-F proteins and EF-P url:https://academic.oup.com/nar/article/53/10/gkaf446/8140454

Our Big Fantastic Virus Database (BFVD) is now published NAR! It contains protein structure predictions of major viral clades, enhanced by petabase-scale homology search and it's explorable on the web. 🌐 bfvd.foldseek.com 💾 bfvd.steineggerlab.workers.dev 📄 academic.oup.com/nar/advance-...

Exciting times! Our latest preprint is now live 🤩! After nearly 16 yrs of running my lab, I truly believe this is one of the most significant contributions we've made. It offers fresh hypotheses about how pandemic Vibrio cholerae spreads globally. Let’s dive in!🧵..1/n www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We are scouting for a PhD student in antiphage immunity. Starting spring 2025 at University of Tartu, Estonia, secondments at Lund. Please contact me with i) CV and ii) max 2-page cover letter (why you, why this topic and why our team) at [email protected]. RT appreciated!

Ok, let us see if this thing works.

Check out our new paper: Inhibition of PQS signaling by the Pf bacteriophage protein PfsE enhances viral replication in P aeruginosa This was a wonderful collaboration with Karen Maxwell and Eric Deziel's labs 🇨🇦 doi.org/10.1101/2023...
