Our new paper in CSBJ is out! We used MD simulations and CABS-flex to show how IL1 receptor antagonists block signaling despite binding the exact same site as agonists. Instead of a static blockade, antagonists actively disrupt distal D3 domain dynamics. doi.org/10.34133/csb...

Excellent poster from #LCBio at #BIO2025 #Poznań on conformational dynamics of human 5S RNP interaction with MDM2. Using #MD and computational #peptide design, we explored how RPL11–MDM2 binding can be disrupted, linking #ribosome biogenesis to potential therapeutic strategies. #RNA #DrugDiscovery

At #BIO2025 in #Poznań, the Nucleic Acid #Bioinformatics session brought together some fascinating talks on #RNA structure, regulation, and #AI-driven approaches to decoding complex biological data. Great to see diverse approaches and lively discussions on how they deepen our understanding.

It is exciting to be at the 6th BIO Life Science #Congress of the #Polish #Biochemical #Society #BIO2025 in #Poznań. Outstanding talks on embryo plasticity, cell fate decisions, and the regulation of mRNA stability. An inspiring mix of science and discussions, and the atmosphere is excellent.

It was great to be at the #Polish–#Korean #Conference in #Gdańsk. I shared our benchmarks of RNA #3D prediction #methods in the context of small-molecule #docking and drug design, and discussed our team’s recent work in #CASP16. #RNAprediction #CASP16 #DrugDesign #Bioinformatics #Conference

Great talk by Prof. Sebastian Kmiecik at #Polish-#Korean #Conference in #Gdańsk on the new CABS-flex 3.0 release. The update brings powerful tools for exploring #protein and #peptide structural #flexibility, connecting #dynamic motions to #aggregation risk, #mutations, and functional regulation.

New review in Drug Discovery Today: Modeling protein–protein interactions in the AI era 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.dr... AI is shiny. Biology is messy — flexibility, disorder, weak signals, big complexes. We map what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s next. #AlphaFold #StructuralBio #CompBio #DrugDiscovery
