At the heart of biology is the mantra: structure dictates function.Biological structures are also beautiful in their intricacy. David Goodsell brought this into public view. As he leaves "Molecule of the Month". here's a huge thank you for helping me see more clearly🧪1/2

Structural insights into the mechanisms of urea permeation and distinct inhibition modes of urea transporters. @NatureComms The #cryoEm #structure will be available in UniTmp as soon as it is released in the PDB. Stay tuned!

Excited to share our preprint on characterizing NACHO, a ER-resident membrane protein that plays an essential role in assembling pentameric ion channels, like GABA and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in our brains. #IonChannels #Neuroscience (1/5) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Mechanism of NACHO-mediated assembly of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels
Pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs) are cell surface receptors of crucial importance for animal physiology[1][1]–[4][2]. This diverse protein family mediates the ionotropic signals triggered...

hello bluesky! here's a longer version of the foxes playing around in the snow at my college in oxford.
the video has gone viral and i think it's one of those moments where i feel like 'humans are so cute' — we just appreciate watching foxes in the snow!
wishing you all a wonderful week :)
