#amyloids

Okay, so I'm not switching completely to #teamtomo Helical reconstruction of #amyloids can be quite fun when you get beautiful structures like this! And thanks to @sjorsscheres.bsky.social for the suggestion of higher order symmetries, it was indeed the case 😉🧪🧬🧶

Read tomorrow's Nature to find out what we think 7 years of solving #cryoEM structures of brain-derived #amyloids has taught us about neurodegeneration, and where to go from here. With Michel Goedert and Ben Ryskeldi-Falcon; very grateful to present and past group members.

Coming Thursday, we have a big review coming out about our work on #cryoEM structures of #amyloids in the past 6-7 years. I will promote on Twitter, Mastodon and BlueSky, and analyse interactions on the different platforms.

“Investigating this further, the researchers found antibodies in the three patients that bound specifically to ATTR amyloid deposits in mouse and human tissue and to synthetic ATTR amyloid. No such antibodies were present in 350 other patients in the cohort with a typical clinical course.” #dna #Amyloids #isogg #geneadons #ucl medicalxpress.com/news/2023-06

I can highly recommend @WenjuanZhang11: she is a fantastic scientist and a wonderful person. Work with her on #cryoEM of yeast #amyloids!

We are recruiting a #postdoc to join our team @MRC_Prion at @ucl for studying #CryoEM structures of prion-like protein assemblies in neurodegenerative diseases and yeast model. More information and apply link are here: ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/search-u

The identity of extra densities in #cryoEM maps of #amyloids from brains remains unknown, and a major focus of research. Just because a model fits in these fuzzy densities does not mean much, and writing speculative papers is going to be of little help.

(It is in part a follow-up on our earlier collaborative paper, more focused on the analysis of unlabeled - pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jacs. )

Most #Pseudomonas #aeruginosa strains encode functional #amyloids. However, the biological role of these #biofilm components have so far remained unknown. Here, we use a rat 🐀 model to show that they can br implicated in lung 🫁 infections. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/s

Just in case this leads to the suspension of my account, 👋#goodbye! I get most of my science (#cryoEM, #amyloids, #Alzheimers) and other news here; and am 🥰 grateful to my 12.5k followers for their interest. I would miss this all dearly, but there are limits...
