Our work on how #crowded environments shape #RNA is now published in Nucleic Acids Research!

The study highlights why #crowder identity matters and how different crowders affect RNA hydration, electrostatics, and dynamics.

Our work on how crowded environments shape #RNA is now published in @NAR_Open!

The study highlights why crowder identity matters and how distinct conditions alter RNA hydration, electrostatics & dynamics.

Struggling with manually assigning Mg²⁺ ions in RNA structures?
Why not use Cat_Wiz, our Coot-integrated, stereochemistry-guided toolkit. It localizes, diagnoses, and corrects Mg²⁺ binding sites in hours, not days.
