Check out our recent preprint on the structure of a non C-JID TNL resistosome from flax.

We are very proud of the persistence of Natsumi who got this long running project over the line and a congratulations to all involved.

Check it out... https://t.co/RCtCCNPwX9

If one TNL resistosome wasn't enough for you this weekend. Checkout another! Amazing work by all involved!

Coordinately submitting with @Kobe_Lab_ we're proud to report great collaboration with Selvaraj in @KamounLab to reveal basis for recognition of multiple effectors by the same immune receptor, to extend that recognition and to see the preactivation state https://t.co/CTpPE68Ofn

We wrote a focussed review on recent structural advancements in NLRs. It was a lot to cover we tried our best. We hope its enjoyable to experts in the field and useful to newcomers. Check it out: https://t.co/E8djfdthjm

Little one’s first interstate conference done #ASBMB2025 Thank you to @ITSASBMB and local organisers @buffalo_berger @Kobe_Lab_ @ UQ for the support! Great conference great to be back!

I am thrilled to release ProteinDJ: a high-performance and modular protein design pipeline. Our open-source workflow incorporates #RFdiffusion, #ProteinMPNN, #FAMPNN, #AlphaFold2 and #Boltz-2. It is a fast, free, and fun way to design proteins (1/5)

Excited to see our Arabidopsis TIRome paper published in PNAS. Have a read here https://t.co/ZCJfN4HDw6.
We hope this is the start of tuning TIR domains 😎

[Mitchell Sorbello @MitchellSorbel2]

Excited to be at #2025ISMPMI come see me at p16 Tuesday to hear more about TIR domains and an effector that inhibits flax TNLs

[Kobe Lab @Kobe_Lab_]

Great job at 3MT!!

[Mitchell Sorbello @MitchellSorbel2]

Plant TIR domains are the coolest TIR domains! Privileged to be a part of this work, that is up on bioRxiv. https://t.co/NaeUIxhcqI

Excited to share our work in @PNASNews .

We report the cryoEM structures of both TRIF and TRAM uncovering the molecular basis of TRIF-mediated TLR3 and TLR4 signalling pathways.

It has been a roller coaster year for me after experiencing extreme happiness and loss. Today I’m starting as a new PI @ANUChemistry. Very grateful to all my extended academic family @BiologyANU and all past and current mentors. Looking forward to forge new networks and collabs!

[Rosemary Cater, PhD @RosemaryJCater]

This week we had the pleasure of hosting cryo-EM guru @OliBClarke who gave the @UQ_News cryo-EM community a fantastic cryo-EM data-processing workshop. Thank you Oli for sharing your tricks with us, @FarrahBlades for wrangling the Bunya supercomputer, and all who attended! 🔬

[Gayle Petersen @GaylePetersen19]

Had a blast the last couple of days learning how to use our brand new Oryx8 crystallisation robot from @DougInstruments! First robot for the lab and first Oryx8 in Australia! 💎 #gulbaliinstitute #charlessturtresearch

[Michael Landsberg ❄️��️🔬 @buffalo_berger]

2024 @UQ_SCMB Structural Biology division retreat. Another fantastic three days of science, sun and fun!

[SCANZ @Crystal_SCANZ]

And so it ends … 3 days of fantastic science and beautiful Freo weather #crystal35 #scanz. Thanks to everyone who joined us from Japan, Korea, India, South Africa, Singapore, UK and USA. And of course our amazing Australian and New Zealand structural science community!

[GRAS Lab @GrasLab]

All the rising stars of Crystal35 conference @Crystal_SCANZ 🎉💎🥳👏👍🥂
Congrats everyone

[GRAS Lab @GrasLab]

Exciting session at Crystal35 conference @Crystal_SCANZ with the “rising star awards” starting with @bj_charles @MonashBDI 🎉 congrats

[Lauren Macreadie @LMacreadie]

Congratulations to @JackKClegg for the 2024 SCANZ Mathieson Medal! @RACInational @UQ_SCMB 🥳
