We are sharing a tool developed initially for internal use called VOSE (Volume Operations Simplified Edition) today. It is written specifically to work in ChimeraX (version 1.5+), with no additional libraries necessary to be installed. github.com/jparmachelab...

Proud to share our latest preprint! 🥳 Using a multidisciplinary approach, we uncover a dual function of the snR37 H/ACA snoRNP - combining pseudouridylation with ribosome chaperone activity within a single RNP.🔬🧬 Challenging the traditional view of snoRNP function. 👇 #cryoEM #ribosome #RNA #snoRNA

Glad to be part of this great work from @beckmannlab.bsky.social, led by @guan316.bsky.social and @timodenk.bsky.social, exploring the mechanics of co-translational acetylation of histones by NAA40.

How are histones acetylated as they emerge from the ribosome? We show that NAA40 cooperates with the NAC complex to enable co-translational acetylation of H2A/H4, revealing NAC as a coordinator of nascent protein modification. Read more about our collaboration with @kirmizislab.bsky.social #cryoEM

Check out our latest work on how collided ribosomes activate the MAP3K ZAK! 💫 www.nature.com/articles/s41... A fun collaboration with @beckmannlab.bsky.social @doubleshuang.bsky.social

How does the kinase ZAK sense ribosome collisions? Find out in our latest collaboration with the @greenlab.bsky.social @doubleshuang.bsky.social @Vienna Huso: 1/4 rdcu.be/eRmJl #ribosome #cryoEM #LMU #JHMI

🎉Thrilled to share that our lab has been awarded an ERC Synergy Grant @erc.europa.eu! Excited for amazing collaborations with the Pertschy (Uni Graz), Henras (CBI Toulouse), and Woodson (Johns Hopkins) labs. #ERCSyG #GeneCenter #LMU #UniGraz #CNRS #JohnsHopkins

We are excited to share our collab with @kedrov-lab.bsky.social! Using Cryo-EM❄️ on an amazing sample, we found that YidC is recruited to the back of SecYEG during late-stage substrate insertion —supporting that the "back-of-Sec" route observed in eukaryotes also exists in bacteria 🦠. Check it out👇👇👇

How does an unusual heptameric AAA-ATPase translocate fully-folded Rieske protein across the inner mitochondrial membrane? Cryo-EM & functional data by Roland Beckmann and coworkers show how Bcs1 alternates between different states during its translocation activity. www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

We are happy to share that our snR30 story is finally out in @natureportfolio.nature.com 🥳 We report the first structure of a H/ACA snoRNP acting in ribosome synthesis thereby providing a detailed structural and biochemical view of the snR30 snoRNP guiding local 18S rRNA subdomain folding. 👇👇👇
