Holy shit.
MISO: microfluidic protein isolation enables single-particle cryo-EM structure determination from a single cell colony.

Or from a single dish of HEK cell culture in the case of two membrane proteins.

Out in Nature Methods now! lnkd.in/gpyBSceg

Wonderful collaboration with the Efremov lab.

If you ever used napari in your research, take a moment to read this.
Napari, like many other resources in the bioimaging world, is freely available despite the fact that it costs many people much time and efforts to develop and maintain it.
Now you get a chance to give back, don't miss it :)
You might have noticed lots of activity in the napari project recently! 🚀 We're grateful for a grant from CZI that's keeping us going, but grants don't last forever: we're trying to figure out sustainable long term funding. Read our blog post to find out how you can help:

A new, nerdy paper. We figured out (some) of the rules underlying cell-permeability of probes and designed ligands that light up, grab, and move proteins around. Awesome @hhmijanelia.bsky.social x @uwmadison.bsky.social x @stjuderesearch.bsky.social collaboration! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

A fantastic achievement
🚨 New paper alert! 🧬
Excited to share our latest preprint from the @michellepeckham.bsky.social lab 🎉

We reveal the structure of human non-muscle myosin 2A — showing how ionic interactions control auto-inhibition ⚡ and how disease mutations disrupt it 💪
