Delighted that our story on chromatin architecture inside human cells is now published — the last chapter of my PhD. It was a pleasure working with @sergiocruzleon.bsky.social, @johannesbetz.bsky.social, and everyone involved. #teamtomo www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Molecular architecture of heterochromatin at the nuclear periphery of primary human cells - Nature Communications
The 3D organisation of chromatin inside a human cell is still not fully resolved. Here the authors reveal that in situ cryo-ET resolves individual nucleosomes and predicts DNA linkers, thus showing th...

Out now in Nature Communications! We show that Dictyostelium vaults associate with ER and NE membranes in situ and encapsulate ribosomes with defined orientations, shining new light on their cellular function! #TeamTomo #TeamMassSpec #ProtistsOnSky www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Ready to TANGO? 💃 In our new publication, Beata Turoňová & Markus Schreiber (@ms314.bsky.social, @becklab.bsky.social) present TANGO: the first cryoET framework to analyze the relation between particle positions and orientations 🪩 All in a single user-friendly package! #CryoET #OpenScience

It’s out! Using cryo-ET in Dicty cells, we take a fresh in situ look at vaults. Surprisingly, we uncover vaults associated with ER and NE membranes, and find that many vaults enclose ribosomes in defined orientations, opening new avenues to their cellular function! www.biorxiv.org/lookup/conte...

Just published! We share an open-source workflow to measure membrane thickness from tomograms, including a tutorial with 3D visualizations. We analyze thickness variations across organelles and reflect on where to define a membrane boundary. @becklab.bsky.social #teamtomo rupress.org/jcb/article/...

❓What if you could peek between your tilt series ❓ We are proud to introduce cryoTIGER -- deep-learning based tilt interpolation for enhanced reconstruction in cryo-ET. A great collaboration between Turoňová lab, @becklab.bsky.social, @hummerlab.bsky.social #teamtomo www.nature.com/articles/s42...

cryoTIGER: deep-learning based tilt interpolation generator for enhanced reconstruction in cryo electron tomography - Communications Biology
Deep learning-based interpolation using cryoTIGER enhances angular sampling in cryoET, improving 3D reconstructions, particle localization, and structural recovery without increasing electron dose.

My PhD paper is in press @cellpress.bsky.social and now online: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...! Contents: weird #NPCs in yeast and flies, #CLEM, in situ #cryoET and more! Made possible by the amazing @becklab.bsky.social team at @mpibp.bsky.social and collaborators! #TeamTomo
