The slower cells grow, the more sensitively they respond to their environment!
A new study by @NimwegenLab reveals that the responsiveness of cells is directly linked to their growth rate. @ScienceMagazine#ecoli#cell#science#research https://t.co/YJtHzOwskx
Very proud of my graduate students @adelefrancisxu and Zijian Zhang & key members of our lab and collaborators @GarryPNolan & Sharon Pitteri lfor the incredibly hard work to characterize subcellular ribosomes. https://t.co/PpGsRfY8nC
Poke bacteria with a sharp needle and they poke back in just a few seconds!
Congratulations to Mitchell (and others) for this analysis of Pseudomonas #T6SS assembly in response to membrane damage!
Collaboration with Rod Lim's lab @biozentrum + @SNIunibas!

This is like AlphaFold, but for protein localisation rather than folding
It's a deep learning model that predicts a protein's subcellular compartment based on its amino acid sequence alone:
Our first conference of 2025, the EMBO Workshop 'In situ structural biology: expanding the toolbox for structural cell biology', is about to start! 🤩
Almost everybody is already gathered on site and getting ready for the opening remarks. Welcome to #EMBOinsitu 🔬🙌🏻
Thrilled to share our lab's first evolutionary cytoskeleton study! We uncover two distinct FtsZ paralogs in Odinarchaeota—OdinFtsZ1 forms curved filaments, while OdinFtsZ2 assembles into spiral rings. A glimpse into tubulin evolution! #Eukaryogenesis#AsgardArchaea#cytoskeleton
Looking for a PostDoc? Exciting science and great city! Join us @AlbertPol10@AlbertHerms in Barcelona @idibaps to work in an @ERC_Research funded multidisciplinary project to study how lipid droplets attract and kill bacteria. image by @LabParton : https://t.co/kdEB8dM6cq

Excited to share our latest work: Using cryoET, we unraveled the in situ structure of a methanogen surface layer and its cell envelope. Now published in Science Advances! #teamtomo https://t.co/9Hu5tb7poY
