Our paper is out on biorxiv! Very excited to share our results - we find signal peptides might be structurally important for quite a few protein isoforms. Full thread soon!

🚨 Excited to share the newest preprint from our lab:

How accurately quaternary state can be predicted from sequence alone? @AvrahamOrly and @TomerTsaban used the ESM2 protein language model to find out!

[Orly Avraham @AvrahamOrly]

Come hear my flash talk at @ILANITFISEB :)
Wednesday, 9:40 at the herods Queens hall.
I'll be talking about protein language models and how we use them to predict quaternary structure.
A great project done in collaboration with my amazing colleague @TomerTsaban

[Ora Furman Lab 🎗 @FurmanLab]

@OrlyAvraham will present a novel work on using natural language models to quaternary structure prediction 😎 (Wednesday 9.40, Queens at Herods Hotel) and Jamal has a poster showing a novel function of the #SARSCoV2 N protein👀 (Tuesday, poster board 29)

What am amazing opportunity, for the conference, for you and your son!!

[Dr. Meital Mashash 🎗️ @Dr_MaytalM]

Big thanks to #ISDP2022 organizers, especially @joefner for supporting parent-researchers! I almost attended virtually, but they encouraged me to bring my son and were so supportive! We had such a great time! 🙏 @devpsybio @Momademia

[Orly Avraham @AvrahamOrly]

Great job @jvarga92!!
Check out this new preprint, a collaboration between two structural biology labs - computational and experimental :)

[Ora Furman Lab 🎗 @FurmanLab]

Check out our new preprint about Ufmylation, a collaboration between @lab_wiener and @FurmanLab labs!

@AranEfrat בכנס WIDS דווקא היה תור 😅
אבל חצי גמר היורו ב-2016 היה לגמרי מושלם מהבחינה הזאת 🙃

Our Data Crimes paper was published in PNAS today.

It shows that naive training of medical AI algorithms can lead to results that are too good to be true. We give guidelines for avoiding such pitfalls

Protein structure prediction by deep learning was just named the @naturemethods Method of the Year, and now @TomerTsaban @jvarga92 @AvrahamOrly @OraFurman et al. show that #AlphaFold 2 can be adapted to predict protein-peptide complex structures @FurmanLab https://t.co/WjqZrim7jY

[Ora Furman Lab 🎗 @FurmanLab]

Our paper on peptide-protein docking with @AlphaFold2 was published today in @NatureComms 🥳🥳🥳 Now it also includes calibration of the method and further analysis of the results!
Have a look at: https://t.co/DZbhY26xVF

[Tomer Tsaban @TomerTsaban]

Very exciting! I wonder how feasible it is to train such a model without a huge GPU cluster...

[Orly Avraham @AvrahamOrly]

My last (for now?) Experimental paper just published in FEBS J. :)

The #AlphaFold source code has been updated and now accounts for multi-chain protein complexes - providing a significant improvement in accuracy for predicting protein interactions: https://t.co/4gyZ0loLrd

@GntlmnScientist @Enozkan1 Did you use BME in the purification process? It could have stuck around from then

[Kortemme Lab @KortemmeLab]

Our study on the multi-specific GTPase switch Gsp1/Ran is out in its final form today at Nature. The study links protein biophysics and systems biology to understand novel allosteric mutations in the GTPase fold, and was led by @glukozica and @cjmathy.

Hypothesis: Academic will continue to function even if you take a break for self-care

Would you want to test the hypothesis?

Congratulations to those millions of scientists who will not win a Nobel prize this week. You're amazing.
