"Today is a marker in the sand. The deeply damaging stereotypes around UTIs are being dispelled. This cruel condition is being recognised as the life-threatening illness it can be," moving & powerful words by @Sarah_ann28 on the @longitude_prize on AMR. https://t.co/sDNR2eAzaJ
BSAC is delighted to have contributed to this moment in accelerating more accurate diagnosis of UTIs, with the announcement that the £8m @longitude_prize on #AMR from @Challenge_Works has been awarded to a diagnostic test effective in just 45 minutes. https://t.co/xWAXziJjo1
How do intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) regulate protein function? Today in @MolecularCell, we show how the IDR of LSD1 acts as a fuzzy molecular switch to tune transcription factor interactions & control leukemia differentiation. (1/6)

It is an absolute honour to be a part of Sysmex Astrego who has been awarded with £8 Million Longitude Prize on Antimicrobial Resistance for the PA-100 AST System.
Simply this is the best discovery of our time and is a perfect gift for the world to fight infectious diseases.
We are thrilled to reveal that the #LongitudePrize on AMR has been won by @AstregoDx with their PA-100 AST System 🎉Congratulations to the team, this technology is a gamechanger in the fight against #superbugs. Learn more about it here: https://t.co/LpDBrjh6xJ
On my way to #London for the final chapter on this incredible journey and big moment for #AMR#diagnostics. A big shoutout for the tremendous @nesta_uk@Challenge_Works team for their persistent and competent management and leadership of the @longitude_prize process.
We are so proud to announce the winner of our flagship prize, the @longitude_prize on #AMR, as the PA-100 AST System from @astrego! This amazing diagnostic device will change the way GPs can identify & deal with #UTIs. Find out more about the winners at https://t.co/sDNR2eAzaJ
Happy to anounce that our systematic study of ribosome inhibition by amikacin and kanamycin is now out. It's the result of a wonderful collaboration between the @gagnon_lab and @sanyal_suparna labs, combining fast kinetics with structural studies 😀

Happy to share that Mathew Gagnon and my lab's joint story of translation inhibition by aminoglycoside Amikacin is now published in @NatureComms 🥳🥳🥳. Superhappy for this collaboration. Fast-kinetics biochemistry and structure together make a very powerful tool afterall 😃
What would a world without antibiotics be like?

Finally!!! our study on ribosomal translocation in Giardia is out. https://t.co/YOLCxhWc8Z.
Thanks, @sanyal_suparna and @andy_emmo for the great teamwork, @narayan_prajuli for the endless discussions.
Thanks, @A_Amunts and Vivek for introducing me to cryo-EM.
Researchers @narayan_prajuli, @sanyal_suparna and colleagues use fast-kinetics and cryoEM to reveal the mechanism of action of antibitoic thermorubin. #Thermorubin # Ribosome # Subunit tethering # fast-kinetics # cryo-EM

Among other findings, we present results suggesting significant re-initiation on poly-cistronic mRNAs in E. coli by 70S, not 30S. All data and code are available at @SciLifeLab_DC.
Researchers in a new Science study created a library of engineered cell lines by using #CRISPR to introduce fluorescent tags into 1310 individual human proteins, enabling a systems-level description of the organization of the human proteome. https://t.co/DiF3Vb8yFx #OpenCell
Some very sad news to share. George Jacoby passed away on Monday. He was a giant in the ID community and made so many contributions in antibiotic resistance research. A true gentleman as well as a great scientist. He will be greatly missed.
