Finally out @natcomms.nature.com
"Single-domain antibodies directed against hemagglutinin and neuraminidase protect against influenza B viruses".
Great collab between @savvideslab.bsky.social (we performed #CryoEM) and Xavier Saelens Lab, spearheaded by Arne Matthys.

Delighted to share our reanalysis of cryo-EM data in EMPIAR-10930, now at:

journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... ;

revealing the ALK-ALKAL2 assembly with 2:1 stoichiometry and resolving the conundrum introduced by the originally reported 2:2 complex. ALK/LTK-cytokine signalling getting clearer!
Reanalysis of cryo-EM data reveals ALK-cytokine assemblies with both 2:1 and 2:2 stoichiometries
The mechanistic understanding of the complex between ALK kinase and its cytokine ligand ALKAL2 has been complicated by reports of diverse stoichiometries (2:1 vs 2:2). This study reanalyzes cryo-EM da...
