Some small molecules modulate protein condensation in cells, but how? Our latest work shows a possible mechanism of action of the small molecule lipoamide. This molecule prevents condensation of stress granules whose components are found as protein aggregates in ALS.

Bacteria can influence how sugars modify proteins in the brain – shown for the first time by EMBL researchers.

In their study, the scientists describe a new method to study glycosylation systematically & quantitatively, leading to new biological insights. 🧪🧠📈

We are very happy to present our work on N-glycoproteomics!🍬 Our method enables the selective enrichment and precise quantification of intact N-glycopeptides to explore the dynamics of glycosylation microheterogeneity.
