New preprint alert! Ever wonder if cells can talk to each other? Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are tiny bridges between cells used to pass organelles, nucleic acids, proteins & even viruses but we've never seen inside them clearly. Until now! 👇🧵

Excited to share our discovery of Manikomycin—a novel antibiotic tackling the AMR crisis! 🦠
Using cryo-EM, we found it’s the first-in-class to target the ribosomal E-site, blocking tRNA entry and beating multi-drug resistance.

Improved fractionation strategies can identify antibiotics with previously unseen scaffolds and mechanisms, exemplified by manikomycin from Streptomyces rimosus, which acts by targeting the E-site of ...

We're happy to announce our new preprint! 🐸 easymode: general pretrained networks for cellular cryo-ET. Segment ~20 cellular features – ribosomes, microtubules, mitochondria, nuclei & more – with zero model training. 🔗 doi.org/10.64898/202... 🧵👇
We present:

Really happy to share our latest work on the dynactin complex. We were so surprised to find that overexpression of dynactin p50 causes part of the dynactin complex to form clusters that contain our recently discovered dynactin assembly factor VezA/vezatin. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

How do sperm and egg fuse? Surprisingly, we still don’t fully know…
Our field has uncovered many pieces of the fertilization puzzle, but not how they fit together.
We identify ✨ SPARK ✨ - a conserved sperm complex that couples sperm-egg binding to fusion.
