Proposed pH-dependent mechanism of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier. In the outward-open state, positively charged K49 and H86 bind pyruvate, initiating conformational changes to the inward-open state. The high matrix pH deprotonates H86, allowing pyruvate to leave. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

We are excited to present the first #cryoEM structures of human GABA transporter 3 – GAT3 – bound to an in-house selective inhibitor, SR-THAP, to substrate GABA, and in the substrate-free state! @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Changes in the equilibrium dynamics of kinases can be observed as mutations and ligands are introduced. Authors describe & apply a workflow that combines AF2+MSA subsampling, molecular dynamics simulations, and an autoencoder for dimensionality reduction www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Another outstanding story of the real-world impact of the short-sighted cuts to NIH and other federal support for the best scientific research infrastructure in the world. www.wsj.com/articles/bio...

Francis Collins, the NIH Director for 12 years, led the Human Genome Project and other NIH efforts for 32 years, resigned today. Key words from his resignation letter www.nytimes.com/2025/03/01/u...

This is a fantastic meeting for the Cryo-EM community in the NYC area. This year it will take place on the East Coast of Manhattan. Please come and join us!

This is an excellent article that accurately describes the situation with NIH funding. Great work @zey.bsky.social ! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/o...

Good morning snowy NYC

If you work in drug discovery and you read one thing this weekend, make it this exceptional J Med Chem editorial. Hits on almost every blessed thing I’ve tweetorialized over the last several years. Quantitation and Error Measurements in Dose–Response Curves
