QPG would like to announce the 2023 Queensland Protein Group and Ross Smith ECR Award Symposium will be held on Tuesday 17th October at the Queensland Brain Institute from 1 – 5pm followed by a mixer and presentation of the awards (see attached flyer for more information).

[QueenslandProtein @QueenslandProt1]

Dear QPG member, the deadline is coming up soon, get your abstract and CV ready for an exciting opportunity to speak at ASBMB 2023 and get your registration costs covered by QPG.

Did you know that bacterial #viruses glue #RNA to proteins? We discovered that a T4 #phage #ART links NAD-RNA to E. coli proteins. We call this an #RNAylation. Great collaboration with @JaeschkeLab and Urlaub Lab. Congratulations to @MaikSchauerte 🍾 https://t.co/32smjjFDH5

[Alpha Lee @iamalphalee]

Excited to share our preprint on using unsupervised learning to find inhibitors from fragments hits. The idea is learning a distance distribution of pharmacophores from fragment hits, and then scoring a large purchasable library using that. (1/3)

So excited that we finally have the ACTIVE NLRP3 inflammasome structure, thanks to super talented Le Xiao @LeXiao17, and Venkat Magupalli @MagupalliVenny! https://t.co/gUJA8QH5Kv

2 new papers in JCI from the DiAntonio/Milbrandt labs shed new light on Sarm1’s role in neurodegeneration. 1)Chronic Sarm1 activation leads to macrophage recruitment that plays a role in axon degeneration. 2)Eliminating Sarm1 slowed AXD in a model of CMT. https://t.co/DPanTnfhCM

[Sorek Lab @SorekLab]

Out today @cellhostmicrobe: An expanded arsenal of bacterial immune systems

Even if you previously read the preprint, don’t miss a major new result on the bacterial SEFIR domain, a homolog of human immune domains

We made #AlphaFold dream of new protein assemblies, used #ProteinMPNN to bring it back to reality, and the results were stunning! (1/5) https://t.co/NhCJv2zbht

[Thomas Ve @ThomasVe7]

Happy to share our cADPR paper out today @Science:

https://t.co/2IUGdx0Gw2

A wonderful collaboration between @Kobe_Lab_, Milbrandt & DiAntonio @WUSTL, @MingGuoChu, @Muzzapythopath and us @GlycoGriffith

Congratulations @manikrpc, Yun Shi, @insulin_SulinLi and all co-authors!

[Mohammad Kawsar Manik @manikrpc]

We are happy to announce that our paper about signaling molecules produced by bacterial TIRs is published in Science today https://t.co/jw0ZP6DNA5. It was a concerted effort from many groups around the world. Thanks @Piperproduction for rendering for our EM structure of AbTir.
