Our study with @rogoulenko in @NAR_Open shows #DNA flexibility impacts protein binding. Despite kinetic challenges, evolution ensures proteins effectively target and bind DNA. Check out Daniel Philosoph's cover art, hand-painted with real brushes! #ProteinDNA #ProteinStructures

I have just opened my lab at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Department of Chemical and Structural Biology, and am looking for students!

Please share! :)

Our paper on the strong interplay between DNA deformability and protein binding has just appeared. It is not just about the extensive search or the energetic barrier for binding but the delays due to many unproductive binding events.

"Exciting news! @segevnaveh from our group, contributed molecular dynamics simulations to understand more about the ORC DNA binding. Check out the highlights of our latest paper led by Michal Chappleboim from the @BarkaiLab in @NAR_Open. #research #science"

[Barkai Lab @BarkaiLab]

Exciting news! Our latest paper "Ordered and disordered regions of the Origin Recognition Complex direct differential in vivo binding at distinct motif sequences", led by Michal Chappleboim is now out in @NAR_Open. Check out the highlights below.

@bradyajohnston Looks handy

in predicting IDR dimension as a function of their abundance and density in sequences. Outlooks fetched from extensive atomistic simulations of small peptides were fed to calibrate a CG model which could reproduce the effect of prolines in real IDRs.

[Levy_research_group @koby_group]

Here is our recently published paper about proline, “Not Only Expansion”.
Thank you @milan_hazra_90 for this work. It got cover magazine at jmb magazine!
