Exciting update on the CryoET Data Portal! A new annotation set from Mart Last & team is now live. They’ve doubled available annotations with >1,800 tomograms of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii which now have almost fully dense labels, and all can be visualized in the browser using Neuroglancer.
Thrilled to share our @elife.bsky.social paper "Inflammasomes primarily restrict cytosolic Salmonella replication within human macrophages" by 1st author Dr. @marisaegan.bsky.social (@cambupenn.bsky.social alum, now faculty @swarthmorecollege.bsky.social)! elifesciences.org/articles/90107 🧵(1/n)

Excited to share our new @science.org paper! Led by postdocs Ruchao Peng and Xin Xu, we used cryo-EM/ET to reveal the influenza ribonucleoprotein complex structure and its strand-sliding mechanism for RNA synthesis, paving the way for new antivirals.

Influenza viruses replicate and transcribe their genome in the context of a conserved ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex. By integrating cryo–electron microscopy single-particle analysis and cryo–electro...
Thrilled to share that our work with the Ben Black Lab, led by a co-mentored star MD/PhD student Katie Kixmoeller, now is formally published! We used cryo-ET to study kinetochore features in human mitotic chromosomes. 🧬🔬❄️
Congratulations to Melanie Ohi for this very well-deserved recognition!
