CD-CODE database is growing MPI-CBG Dresden Center for Systems Biology Dresden Hyman Lab Big thank you to all contributors!🙏 Visit cd-code.org if you like biomolecular condensates.

This is fascinating- same paper sent out to huge pool of reviewers under different names. 23% recommended “reject” when a prominent researcher was the only author shown, 48% when the paper was anonymized, and 65% when a little-known author was the only author shown

I am proudly sharing our latest work on protein translation errors. Congrats to first author Cedric Landerer and to JonasPoehls Center for Systems Biology Dresden Molecular Biology and Evolution.

It gets worse. Apparently if you search "as of my last knowledge update" or "i don't have access to real-time data" on Google Scholar, tons of AI generated papers pop up. This is truly the worst timeline.

The group of Agnes Toth-Petroczy examined the frequency of stop codon reading errors in genetic instructions and how temperature and nutrient depletion affects these mistakes. Publication in Nature Communications. mpi-cbg.de/news-outreach/…

Thank you for the fruitful collaboration! We will keep exploring miscoding events and how they generate protein diversity.

Meet the Dresden Science Heroes, our MPI-CBG Dresden directors Meritxell Huch Huch Lab and Anne Grapin Botton Anne Grapin-Botton and many more scientists during the Dresden Science Night MPI-CBG Dresden. Our full program: mpi-cbg.de/news-outreach/…

Just came back from a conference where I had with me my 7 months old baby and my mom to babysit... I agree with their points.

We will be opening our doors again for the Dresden Science Night on June 14th, 2024, from 5:00 p.m. to midnight. Everybody is welcome to participate in our diverse and exciting program. mpi-cbg.de/news-outreach/…

Do apply! This is an extremely exciting position with a broad scope at a fantastic institute (OK, I am biased, but CBG really is a great place to work).

Have you ever heard of Olympic Gels - formed by interlocked rings? It turns out they are real. Cool work using DNA nanotechnology.

📢We've just updated CD-CODE to v1.06!🎉 ✨11 new #condensates integrated (total: 670) ✨ 21 new #proteins associated (total: 9672) ✨ 24 condensate-protein attributes updated 👀Check the current version here: cd-code.org #DatabaseUpdate #NewRelease #Bioinformatics

If you are interested in detecting amino acid substitutions (e.g. due to translation errors) in mass spectrometry datasets (e.g. on HPC), this Python package might be useful for you, developed with the Scientific Computing Facility of MPI-CBG Dresden, @csbd academic.oup.com/bioinformatics…

🌟Excited to introduce #MARDO as CD-CODE August "Condensate of the Month"!🌟 MARDO stands for Mitochondria-Associated RNA DOmain: cd-code.org/condensate/089… 💡It was first discovered and described by Cheng et al. Schuh Lab in #mammalian (mouse, bovine and human) #oocyte. 1/3🧵⤵️
