How can memories persist in the brain when their properties and supporting biological substrates change over time and experiences?

Our latest work newly published in @ScienceMagazine proposes that a balance between memory dynamics and persistence is achieved through the divergent recruitment of multiple memory traces established in parallel upon memory encoding.

[Chi-Min Ho @mimi1inh]

Excited to share our in situ #CryoET story on the effect of a top antimalarial drug candidate on the translational landscape in #CryoFIB-milled malaria parasites!

So proud of this massive team effort with @leonie_anton @_wenjing_cheng_ @mehsehret @davwcbb🥰#officially #teamtomo

[Maier Lab @MaierLab]

@mimi1inh @leonie_anton @mehsehret @davwcbb Impressive tour de force to analyze the impact of treatment conditions on translation in the malaria parasite with a multi-method approach from omics to cryo-ET - Congrats to everyone involved.

How do only 2 non-visual arrestin isoforms regulate ~800 GPCRs?
Our research on CCR5 phosphorylation uncovered a key pXpp phosphomotif crucial for robust arrestin2 recruitment, illuminating intricate details of GPCR desensitization. Now in @MolecularCell

A team effort with @petrovic_iv and outstanding collaboration with @MaierLab and @arshukla

[Abhay Kotecha @AbhayKot]

This was a spectacular collaboration with @BJ_Greber, and @simakali1. Initially, we thought we would need months of microscope time. @AdrianKoh8 & @cushing_v got all data and first structures within 2 weeks! To make this happen we designed a fast #SBDD workflow with @AdrianKoh8👇

[Ben Engel @bengeliscious]

Interesting to see myself age so much in one click of a slide 😅. Thanks a lot @ribo_rob for dropping by the @biozentrum to share your beautiful mitoribosome research and to tell us about your new company @cryocloud_io. Providing cloud processing for #CryoEM & #TeamTomo!❄️🔬☁️💻

[Amy Fraley @aefraley]

Here we defined the interactions between the novel enzymatic components responsible for the so far unparalleled introduction of a vinyl chloride moiety to a 21-carbon chain during polyketide elongation! Congrats to the team: @MraDll, Max, Roy, Cedric, Groll lab, and @piel_lab!

[Maier Lab @MaierLab]

Congratulations to @Yves80289860 for completing his PhD in our lab @biozentrum 🥳🥳. Yves’ research provided a big leap forward in understanding the architecture of giant biosynthetic assembly lines known as modular polyketide synthases 👉https://t.co/tR7gEzPJe8. 🎉

[Maier Lab @MaierLab]

@Grininger_Lab Great review, @Grininger_Lab put a lot of dedication and effort into providing a comprehensive overview on the structural biology of modular polyketide synthases. Must-read for anyone interested in this fascinating family of biosynthetic assembly lines.

[Maier Lab @MaierLab]

Congrats Polina, and all the best for your future research @psich_en.

[Polina Isaikina @isaikina_p]

After 4 incredible years @biozentrum, I successfully defended my PhD. Thanks to fantastic supervisor Stephan Grzesiek, my committee @LabStahlberg and Prof. Kobilka, and all the collaborators! Looking forward to the next career step as a Project Scientist with @GSchertler at PSI.
