The LC3-interacting region of NBR1 is a protein interaction hub enabling optimal flux, say Brian North, Christopher Shoemaker and colleagues: https://buff.ly/4b0ETa4

So grateful that our group contributed in this fantastic study on BRCA2 variants, congrats especially to Shyam Sharan and @sounaksahu.bsky.social - thank you for the opportunity of this journey together

A periodic reminder that biologically meaningful conformational changes do not have to be large While textbooks may indicate that relevant motions are large, even the original paper on alternating access makes it clear that atoms just need to move a bit to have an effect. doi.org/10.1038/2119... 🧬🧶

A long-waited refinement tool for cofactors with metal-coordination, MetalCoord. By Garib Murshudov group @mrclmb.bsky.social Compiles distances & angles from CCP4 monomer library and classifies the metal-coordination geometry. The updated dictionaries and restraints then used for refinement.

Super excited to preprint our work on developing a Biomolecular Emulator (BioEmu): Scalable emulation of protein equilibrium ensembles with generative deep learning from @msftresearch.bsky.social ch AI for Science. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

DiffDock, a new diffusion-based ligand docking program, made s big splash earlier this year. But it’s apparently not all it’s claimed to be:

We did this crazy project where we tried to see if proteins could interact with their mirror image ligand. Seems impossible when proteins need to form 3D structures to interact. But what about if the interaction remains disordered??? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

If you are a PhD student and like protein disorder (or want to learn more), Birthe Kragelund @bbkrage.bsky.social and Kristian Strømgaard are organizing a PhD course on How IDPs work 🧶🧬🧪 Note the cost if you are not at a Danish university. Details: phdcourses.ku.dk/DetailKursus...

Children who develop two independent tumors during childhood are extremely rare We wanted to see if our genomic technologies could shed light into those exceptional cases. Read about it in this recent paper: tinyurl.com/yt9m584d

Now online at JCTC: “Is the Functional Response of a Receptor Determined by the Thermodynamics of Ligand Binding?” Our answer: Yes, it is! And we can use it to predict ligand efficacy. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

If you are interested or working in #structuralbiology, as you see any protein (yes, *any*), you should be thinking: is it glycosylated? The answer is likely to be yes! You can predict N-glycosylation sites and rebuild all types of glycans with ReGlyco glycoshape.org 😌 Check out the example ⬇️ 1/2

Thrilled to announce Boltz-1, the first open-source and commercially available model to achieve AlphaFold3-level accuracy on biomolecular structure prediction! An exciting collaboration with Jeremy, Saro, and an amazing team at MIT and Genesis Therapeutics. A thread!

We’ve now explored this on all GPU models available on our cluster and some non-A100/H100 do not have the issue; seems like something nuanced that can hopefully be fixed: github.com/google-deepm...

AlphaFold can predict protein, DNA, or RNA complexes.. BUT is it easy to determine the reliable interactions?🤔 ➡️ AlphaBridge will identify the most confident interactions, making your analysis easier! 🌐Try it here: alpha-bridge.eu 👀Read more: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Hi TED! 👋 Out now in Science, we are finally ready to make our classification of all domains in AFDB v4 available to all! A joint effort of @cathgene3d.bsky.social and the Jones group (PSIPRED), here's a link to the article www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 1/6 🧵⤵️

4 days of great science in a cozy venue for the #CECAM workshop www.cecam.org/workshop-det... in Paris

Jurgen in our group run AF3 locally after fiddling. It worked well on a A100 and produced some bad models on a lower end GPU. We don't have access to many A100s so unless we get it working on lower-end GPUs we won't be able to use this much.

3rd day of our #CECAM workshop on biomolecular interfaces dynamics, Teresa opens the morning session on IA and integrative approaches.

#eLife will not have a IF score, says Clarivate ➡️ retractionwatch.com/2024/11/13/e... This will be the ultimate test of how much we care about an absurd metric vs the *actual* quality of the journal I personally love eLife, had a fantastic experience both as an author and as a reviewer 🔝⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Second day of or #CECAM workshop on biomolecular interfaces dynamics, Monika Fuxreiter opens the morning session.

Wonderful setting for a workshop #cecam #ibpc #paris
