New preprint from Dodonova lab 🔔! Capturing multiple states by cryo-EM❄️, we show for the first time how archaeal RNA Polymerase engages a nucleosome and forms direct contacts with histones! 🧬 Great work by Gabriele & a fantastic collaboration with Dina Grohmann! 🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Releasing TOMATO, the TOMogram Annotation TOol! A lightweight Python GUI for going through hundreds of cryo-ET tomograms. Flag what's in each one, grade its quality, and end up with a table you can filter and act on. github.com/alkemasimon/...

📢 (1/2) Excited to share the first preprint from my PostDoc! We developed UbSeRP to map co-translational ubiquitination in a translatome-wide, revealing thousands of quality control sites, and how they reshape with aging. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... #proteostasis #ribosomes #preprint

Ubiquitin selective ribosome profiling reveals systematic principles of co-translational quality control
Protein biogenesis is a stress- and error-sensitive process that can lead to nascent protein misfolding and aggregation, challenging cellular proteostasis. Co-translational ubiquitination (CTU) is a c...

Super excited to share my first paper from my PhD in the @dodonova-sveta.bsky.social lab. We visualise how chromatin from archaeal cells is organised using cryo-ET and SPA. Big thanks to everyone involved in this project!

Excited to share our new preprint! 🧬❄️ by brilliant @mdreimann.bsky.social and great collaborators! Using cryo-ET&EM, we reveal archaeal chromatin in a near-native state: variable-beads-on-a-string fibers shaped by growth phase and histone composition #ArchaeaSky www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Tired of knowing what you are looking for in your tomograms? Why not try bluesky-less Frosina's new self-supervised algorithm for semantic segmentation and particle picking for #teamtomo (includes a new denoiser without the need for odd/even tomos) Code is on GitHub if you want to try it out

We’ve uncovered Asgard chromatin structures formed by a Hodarchaeal histone : closed hypernucleosome conserved in archaea and an open form resembling the H3-H4 eukaryotic octasome. Fantastic work by @harshranawat.bsky.social! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #Chromatin #Asgard #Archaea #cryoEM

So happy to finally see this published 🎊🎊🎊🎊Thanks again to my former supervisor @brfalcon.bsky.social and my co-first @stephfowler.bsky.social & the Duff Lab Go an have a read on either the paper or how alzforum reported on this part of my PhD journey
