Check out our structure of the archaeal virus HFTV1! Amazing work by two students - Daniel Zhang and Becky Davies, supported by @mathewmclaren.bsky.social. Great collaboration with T. Quax & S. Schwarzer, @hanna-m-oksanen.bsky.social, @the-gold-lab.bsky.social, @misha-isupov.bsky.social & W. Stuart.

The archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius has four different surface filaments. Each of them plays its special role in motility, adhesion, biofilm formation and mating. Our latest cryoEM foray into three of these unique structures is now published: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
