Read our new paper! We show how the protease BepA binds the BAM complex and undergoes striking conformational changes, embedding its water-soluble lid into the membrane to cleave outer membrane proteins. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #cryoEM #astburycentre

Delighted to see Jon Machin's lovely OMP folding and assembly work on the front cover of JMB (doi: 10.1016/j.jmb.2025.169346) and in this Faraday Discussion article (doi: 10.1039/d4fd00180). Congratulations on your great work Jonathan!

Big congrats to @lola-stephens.bsky.social for finishing her DVRS placement today! She’s spent the last eight weeks diving into computational projects in the lab, getting to grips with particle picking, segmentation, and subtomogram averaging. Good luck with your final year of neuroscience!
