Check out our latest work! AlphaFold 3 revealed a transient immune receptor complex that eluded biochemical studies for almost a decade🤯 We describe a conserved structural logic underlying sensor–helper communication in an NLR immune receptor network 🧵👇

🚨 EffectorGeneP is finally here! Stop missing small, single-exon or orphan genes from your favourite pathogen genome. Current tools only annotate 15%-78% of effector genes, EffectorGeneP finds 95% - including the large AvrSr26 family in stem rust. https://t.co/Pn2cJIxlBd

Protein structure prediction changed biology. Protein assembly discovery is next.
We present SNI (Structural Novelty Index), a scalable framework for finding new protein complexes.
We used it to uncover an unexpected resistosome assembly: 11-mer. 🧵👇🏻

Our lab is growing! We seek a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow for some very interesting projects in plant biology, cell biology, and condensates!

[APS Tropical Plant Pathology Committee @APS_Tropical]

Register for the upcoming APS Research Forum focusing on Tropical Plant Health (23 April 2026, 1pm CT / 2pm EST). Great opportunity to learn about ongoing research on tropical crops, and meet new scientists in the field. https://t.co/7oWnb1iECQ

New preprint out! 🚀

We mapped how septins organise infection in the rice blast fungus—and found they are far more dynamic than previously thought.

This is so interesting, I have this issue with bedtools, and I spent hours trying to figure out the all the mismatches. Thank you for the tips.

[Ming "Tommy" Tang @tangming2005]

1/ Your bedtools intersect returned zero results. You stared at the screen for 20 minutes.

The BED file looked fine. The command was correct. Everything should have worked.

I've debugged this exact problem hundreds of times. It's almost always one of these 4 traps:
