Super happy to share that our work on the specific inhibition of USP30 - a clinical stage Parkinson's drug target - is now online at NSMB www.nature.com/articles/s41... Have a read if you fancy chimeric protein engineering or a framework for DUB ligandability. Huge congratulations to Nafizul & team!

Tomatoes lose their bitterness and toxicity as they ripen thanks to DNA demethylation, the hormone ethylene, and key transcription factors, finds a new #ScienceAdvances study. scim.ag/4bfdr8u

Removal of toxic steroidal glycoalkaloids and bitterness in tomato is controlled by a complex epigenetic and genetic network
A complex regulatory network controls the removal of toxic steroidal glycoalkaloids during tomato ripening.

Many crystal structure analyses that previously required experimental phase evaluation can now be solved by AlphaFold-guided MR. In effect, this and related MR approaches are de novo phasing methods. #MolecularReplacement #MachineLearning doi.org/10.1107/S205...

Just because it's a homo-oligomer, don't assume it's symmetric! @benjabsnt.bsky.social & collaborators used cryo-EM to study the transthyretin (TTR) tetramer (55 kDa), shedding light on its misfolding pathways linked to amyloid disease. Now in peer-reviewed form: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

PDB-IHM (formerly PDB-Dev) is for integrative structures. Intergrative structures = from multiple experimental & computational methods. Since mid-2024 assigned PDB ids & DOIs. Access via wwPDB archive or PDB-IHM - pdb-ihm.org 👉 www.wwpdb.org/news/news?year=2025#6…
