Biochemistry Center Cologne
@bccologne.bsky.social
The Center for Biochemistry of the Medical Faculty of @unicologne.bsky.social. We do research into the biology underlying disease. https://biochemie-med.uni-koeln.de/en/
Congratulations to Günter Schwarz and his team at the Institute of Biochemistry @chemunicologne.bsky.social not the Medical Biochemistry this time 😉
🧠 How Synapses Hold Together 🤝
This #discovery was made by a research team @bccologne.bsky.social studying the molecular architecture of #synapses. The study shows that the protein #gephrin forms flexible filaments in the brain, serving as an important building block of inhibitory synapses.

🔬 Research Team Discovers Potential Treatment for Rare Childhood Disease 🧬
A team at @bccologne.bsky.social has made a significant breakthrough in the treatment of the STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy (SAVI). The SAVI is a severe genetic disorder that is currently incurable.

This is a turning point.
We Europeans have the power to push X into irrelevance across our continent. Freeze or delete your accounts now.
Media, it’s time to stop citing X.
Dozens of universities are leading the way. Let’s limit Elon Musk’s influence in 🇪🇺.

Exciting twist on membrane protein quality control. Congratulations to Nik Sergejevs and Pedro Carvalho @dunnschool.bsky.social as well to all contributing authors including Dönem Avci and Marius Lemberg @bccologne.bsky.social
Nikita Sergejevs, Pedro Carvalho and colleagues find that that the intramembrane protease SPP conducts topology surveillance of CYP51A1 by initiating quality control of incorrectly inserted molecules.
