(1) Happy to share our latest work: We developed an approach to systematically investigate how glycosylation controls protein function across the proteome—and what goes wrong when it is disrupted.

Super interesting work from @carolynbertozzi.bskyverified.social group about the effects of glycosylation in protein structure and function at the proteome scale 🤯💥🤩

Results show that sialylation and fucosylation are crucial, which makes a lot of sense. We did some extra bits 🧐 with GlycoShape ⬇️🧵

Congratulations to my very good friend @jfhevler.bsky.social on this amazing pre-print on how mass-spec and MD simulation can enable functional analysis of protein glycoforms. It was a privilege to play a small part in this project and learn a lot from Johannes! #Glycotime #carbohydrate #Proteomics

For those who perform thermal proteome profiling (TPP) experiments, you might find this new data analysis approach (and open source Python software) useful. Developed by postdoc @jfhevler.bsky.social 🙏

🕷️ Spiders from our blood 🕷️
Check out our new paper from @hecklab.bsky.social describing how the spider-like immune regulator C4BP interacts with its native binding partners.

Structural Insights into Complement Inhibition: Visualizing Distinct Binding Modes of C4b-binding Protein Complexes with C4b and SAP
C4b-binding protein (C4BP) is an innate immune inhibitor found in serum. Human C4BP adopts spider-like higher-order structures (HOS) formed by disulfide-linked C4BPα and C4BPβ chains that non-covalent...

Faster and more accurate protein modeling with CryFold. By focusing on nearby points (Local Attention) and employing map masking, CryFold excels in generating models from challenging maps regions. It enables a more cost-efficient model building. 🧵
