In our article published today @Nature , we report complete all-atom structural models of a fully packaged bacteriophage particle. Congratulations to Kush Coshic on his first publication! Many thanks to Chris Maffeo and David Winogradoff for pushing this 6-year project forward.

If a nucleus is a VIP lounge, the nuclear pore complex is its bouncer, allowing some proteins to enter and keeping others out.🧬

What are the qualifications for entry? Beckman physicists used a dynamic simulation to find out.

Interested in all-atom simulations of biological condensates? Using Anton 2, we tested nine MD force fields by simulating a full-length FUS protein in solution. We provide instructions for using best performing force fields (aadisp and aastar) in NAMD. https://t.co/wDPLC21YDQ

@joshiphy @KGoepfrich @monari_luca Yup. Nice to hold some structures in your hands 🧬

[ACCESS @ACCESSforCI]

Scientists, including @UofIllinois postdoc David Winogradoff (@ddubya86), used #NSFfunded resources from @TACC and @NCSAatIllinois to see what’s going on inside the nucleus of a cell and how the dual-layered membrane of a nucleus works.

@NCIYaminiDalal @aksimentievLab Thanks @NCIYaminiDalal! The systems keep getting bigger! Excited to think more about chromatin and the nucleus in the future!

@Chromosoma_EB @aksimentievLab @NatureComms @PhysicsIllinois Thanks 🙏 The telegraph behavior was a surprising result!

[David Winogradoff @ddubya86]

Thank you @TACC for highlighting our recent NPC paper, and for all the computational resources!

[TACC @TACC]

Supercomputer simulations on #NSFfunded Frontera and Stampede2 @TACC helped scientists discover the mechanism for passive transport of biomolecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm through the nuclear pore complex. https://t.co/baGzx20zbO @UofIllinois #cancer

Our first structurally accurate model of passive transport through nuclear pores reveals the protein size selection to be determined by a percolation transition. Read more at https://t.co/I38IiWXAYk @ddubya86 @NatureComms @PhysicsIllinois

Wanted to simulate nanopore transport but did not have a supercomputer? Now you can! Our recent perspective @PCCP comes with all the files needed to reproduce and extend our work. FREE to access now! Find it here: https://t.co/2tVbJBlBWf

[Laboratory of Bionanotechnology at IITH @biotech_joshi]

Two PhD and one postdoctoral position available in the area of computational biophysics in our group at #Biotechnology department of @IITHyderabad. Interested candidates please get in touch with @joshiphy for more details. #PhDpositions

[AksimentievLab @aksimentievLab]

One step closer to protein fingerprinting. Excellent collaboration with @cees_dekker' group, just out in @ScienceMagazine

[Himanshu Joshi @joshiphy]

Excited to share our work at @aksimentievLab
featuring on the cover of the @J_A_C_S. We introduced a chemosynthetic channel and investigated its potassium selectivity. Thanks to Dan and Jiandong for doing most of the heavy lifting. https://t.co/3qzVk03olr

@dsgoodsell Very interesting image. It reminds me of a spine and rib cage.
