How can you convince a coronavirus to share its cell entry secrets?

Give it something sweet! 🍬

Using #cryoEM & MD, we show how a sugar-based receptor binds to the HKU1 spike and triggers opening via an allosteric mechanism (🧵).

Stoked to share our latest pre-print! Using cryo-EM, we determined the structure of the PfRCR complex, an essential protein complex required for red blood cell invasion by the deadliest form of malaria. 🧵

🎉new paper alert @NatureComms 🎉 This one is close to my heart, with my first + highest res #CryoEM structure solved @MIPS_Australia. We can now much better understand how endogenous ligands activate their VPAC #GPCR receptors. (1/2)👇https://t.co/8IvczuBaqi

It was an eventful week, so #Render of the week is featuring a small molecule in a #GPCR binding pocket: work by my friends @RachelJ9908 (her last day at @MIPS_Australia on Friday😢) and @CindyZh46783235 (got a #DECRA)! A tribute to both and their fantastic #cryoEM skills! (1/2)

[Sarah Piper @SarahJ_Piper]

Very proud and happy for my office mate and friend @CindyZh46783235 who got a DECRA! 😱✨✨✨

[Patrick M Sexton @PatrickMSexton1]

Congratulations to @CindyZh46783235 on the award of her @arc_gov_au DECRA @CCeMMP @MIPS_Australia @HRM_MIPS @MonashPharm @MIPS_DDB Very well deserved! 🥳 #gpcr #CryoEM

We know #cryoEM maps from a @Thermofisher #Glacios TEM, but have you seen a map that grows its own Glacios TEMs? Look no further! A silly #render of the week: EMDB:26180 (Calcitonin receptor by @RachelJ9908 @ChemJ_Tsao @bluesocks81) using @luminous_lab tutorial #Blender3D(1/2)👇

[Patrick M Sexton @PatrickMSexton1]

Great work @SarahJ_Piper @RachelJ9908 @denise_wootten @PiperProteins from @CCeMMP @arc_gov_au @MIPS_Australia @MonashPharm #cryoEM #membrane_proteins

[Sarah Piper @SarahJ_Piper]

Do you like #cryoEM ? and #membranes ? Or #proteins? 🔬🧊Or do you simply like pretty pictures made in #Blender3D or @ChimeraX ?

Check out a great piece of work and probably my last ribosome work for a while. Big shout out to @lauraperlazaj, twitterless Kher Shing Tan from @LithgowLab, @ChrisTheMicrobe, @RachelJ9908
and @SarahJ_Piper. @TrevorLithgow is still a master paper crafter!

Comprehensive review on drug discovery in schizophrenia from a talented PhD student in our lab. Great work @DaisyLSpark @gdstewart82 @chrislangmead!

[Monash University @MonashUni]

We are incredibly proud to be ranked number one in the world for Pharmacy and Pharmacology in this year’s QS World University Rankings. Well done to the entire Monash community for incredibly strong rankings this year! #QSWUR @MonashPharm

[Patrick M Sexton @PatrickMSexton1]

I would also like to highlight that 4 of our structures were solved on our @thermofisher #Glacios #Falcon4 200kV microscope housed and supported by our @CCeMMP partners @Bio21Institute @UniMelb showing the great outcomes available with #200kV #CryoEM

[Patrick M Sexton @PatrickMSexton1]

Personally, very excited about this paper! Brilliant work by @ChemJ_Tsao @CCeMMP @arc_gov_au, co-led by @denise_wootten @HRM_MIPS @MIPS_Australia @MIPS_DDB and team. Animation from @PiperProteins 1/2

Amazing work by Jason and team!

[Jason Cao @ChemJ_Tsao]

After 22 years, from an imagery to real structures, with #CryoEM making it true! Excited to share my first #phD paper published today.https://t.co/Uk4H4hkZVg My honour to study under @PatrickMSexton1 @denise_wootten @bluesocks81 @YLynnliang and work with @RachelJ9908 @RadoDanev
