🚨 New preprint! We looked at how information from high-throughput experiments (RNAcompete, RNA Bind'n'Seq) can complement structural data for protein-RNA complexes, and used this to question AlphaFold3 modeling specificity. ⬇️ Work from one of the main PhD projects of @yoannfauconnet.bsky.social 👏

This article in Le Monde about French research in general and the CNRS in particular has a few depressing graphs www.lemonde.fr/sciences/art...
The graph highlights a growing divergence between Germany and France:

* In the mid-1990s, France and Germany spent similar shares of GDP on R&D.
* Germany subsequently increased its R&D investment by about 1 percentage point of GDP.
* France’s R&D effort remained largely stagnant.
* By 2023, Germany spends 3.15% of GDP on R&D compared with 2.18% in France, a gap of nearly 1 percentage point of GDP.
* France is also well below the OECD average (2.93%).

The figure therefore illustrates that France has fallen behind both Germany and the OECD average in R&D intensity over the past three decades.

The phage nucleus synergizes with an anti-defense protein to resist bacterial immunity
Morgan et al. show that a phage-encoded protein functions as an antitoxin to counter DarTG2-mediated phage defense. They further explore the interplay between this anti-defense protein, the phage nucleus replication compartment, which encloses chimallivirus genomes, and the DarTG2 phage defense system.

The Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP) experiment is calling for prediction targets: Immune Complexes, Organic Ligand-Protein Complexes, Nucleic Acids and Complexes, Conformational Ensembles, Difficult Protein Structures and Complexes.

FOCUS PLATEFORME : La plateforme de Cryo-Microscopie Électronique I2BC accueille Heddy Soufari, ingénieur-chercheur CEA, pour renforcer le développement méthodologique en cryo-EM
La plateforme conjointe de Cryo-Microscopie Électronique de l’Institut de Biologie Intégrative de la Cellule (I2BC, Gif-sur-Yvette, Institut Joliot, CEA, Saclay) et du Synchrotron SOLEIL renforce son expertise avec l’arrivée de Heddy Soufari, recruté en tant qu’ingénieur-chercheur CEA. Spécialisé en biologie structurale et en cryo-microscopie électronique (cryo-EM), il consacre l’essentiel de son activité au développement méthodologique et au soutien scientifique des utilisateurs régionaux et nationaux sur les sites de SOLEIL et de l’I2BC.   Docteur en biologie structurale de l’Université de Bordeaux, Heddy Soufari a orienté ses recherches vers la compréhension de la structure et de la dynamique des complexes macromoléculaires. Après un parcours académique entre la France et le Canada, il a acquis une solide expertise en cryo-microscopie électronique appliquée à l’étude de systèmes biologiques complexes. Il a notamment contribué à la caractérisation de ribosomes de mitochondries et de complexes protéiques chez différents modèles eucaryotes, avant de rejoindre la société NovAliX où il dirige le pôle Cryo-EM et met la microscopie au service du structure-based drug design (SBDD) sur des cibles thérapeutiques.   Depuis son recrutement au CEA en septembre 2024, il accompagne les chercheurs de l’I2BC et de la région dans leurs projets de cryo-EM, de la préparation d’échantillons à l’analyse des reconstructions tridimensionnelles. Il développe parallèlement une activité méthodologique centrée sur la cryo-tomographie électronique (cryo-ET) et l’imagerie corrélative cryo-CLEM, avec pour objectif d’étudier l’organisation et la dynamique de complexes macromoléculaires in situ. Sa vision scientifique repose sur une approche multi-échelle, allant de la molécule unique à la cellule entière, afin d’explorer la tridimensionnalité des systèmes biologiques dans toute leur complexité.   Avec l’arrivée d’Heddy Soufari, la plateforme renforce sa capacité à développer de nouvelles méthodologies et pipelines pour la tomographie cellulaire, l’analyse d’images 3D et la corrélation optique-électronique. Ces efforts visent à faire de la plateforme un pôle de référence pour la visualisation in situ des architectures cellulaires et des complexes macromoléculaires à haute résolution.   -> Contact : Stéphane Bressanelli (plt-cryoem@i2bc.paris-saclay.fr)   Plug In Labs Université Paris-Saclay : cliquer ICI   Envie de (re)lire leurs précédents FOCUS PLATEFORME ? 17 février 2020 FOCUS PLATEFORME : Des analyses par cryo-microscopie électronique révèlent les mécanismes d'auto-assemblage de l'α-synucléine, une protéine impliquée notamment dans la maladie de Parkinson 4 décembre 2023 FOCUS PLATEFORME : Un assemblage protéique à façon visualisé par cryo-microscopie électronique et reconstruction 3D   I2BC / Plateforme de cryo-microscopie électronique (CRYO-EM). La plateforme pour la cryo-microscopie électronique I2BC met à disposition une large gamme d’instruments et de services pour la biologie structurale : vitrification d’échantillons (Vitrobot, Leica GP2), microscope Tecnai Spirit (120 kV) pour les expériences préliminaires, microscopes de dernière génération Glacios (200 kV) pour les expériences à haute résolution, ainsi qu’un microscope confocal cryogénique Stellaris pour les approches corrélatives optique-électronique. La plateforme a la capacité de préparer et d’imager des échantillons biologiques de niveau de sécurité 2. Elle s’est associée au mésocentre de calcul Paris-Saclay pour l’hébergement des serveurs de stockage et d’analyse des images produites. La plateforme CryoEM de l’I2BC est associée à SOLEIL dans le cadre de la plateforme conjointe CryoEM@Paris-Saclay. Les images obtenues en cryo-microscopie électronique sur le microscope Glacios, ainsi que les moyens de calcul disponibles sur la plateforme, permettent le crible de grilles et la détermination de structures 3D à des résolutions dépassant fréquemment 3 Å et pouvant atteindre 2 Å. Ces premières structures permettent si nécessaire d'accéder aux microscopes plus puissants, notamment le Titan Krios G4 (300 kV) à SOLEIL, mais aussi les microscopes Titan Krios de l'ESRF, de l’IBS (Grenoble) ou de l'IGBMC (Strasbourg), menant aux résolutions atomiques. La plateforme CryoEM de l’I2BC permet aussi l'observation de complexes in situ (protéines à la surface d'organites purifiés ou de virus enveloppés, protéines membranaires reconstituées dans des liposomes...) par cryo-tomographie électronique. La plateforme accueille des projets issus de la recherche académique, institutionnelle et industrielle, et s’inscrit dans le réseau des infrastructures nationales en biologie structurale et intégrative (FRISBI). Ses missions couvrent la préparation d’échantillons, la collecte de données, le traitement d’images, la formation et l’accompagnement des utilisateurs. Cette plateforme fait partie du pôle des plateformes de Biologie Structurale de l'I2BC qui comprend six plateformes : cristallographie, RMN, CryoEM, mesures d'interactions macromoléculaires (PIM), expression de protéines recombinantes en systèmes eucaryotes (Prot-Ex) et sélection sur mesure de protéines artificielles comme ligands spécifiques de toute protéine d’intérêt (AlphaRep). D’autre part, les plateformes CryoEM, cristallographie, PIM et AlphaRep sont aujourd’hui labélisées IBISA sous la bannière BioStruct@UPSAY.   A propos de l’Institut de Biologie Intégrative de la Cellule (I2BC - UMR 9198). L’I2BC est une Unité Mixte de Recherche (CEA, CNRS, Université Paris-Saclay), accueillant une soixantaine d’équipes de recherche et hébergeant 17 plateformes technologiques, réparties en 6 pôles. 2025 a aussi été une année clé pour l’I2BC : cette unité a fêté ses 10 ans !
