Structural and functional diversity of type IV secretion systems rdcu.be/dn7Jk Costa et al. review type IV secretion systems in Gram-negative bacteria, exploring their structures, specialized functions, biogenesis and localization.

Delve into our comprehensive review on the diversity of Type IV Secretion Systems in Gram- Bacteria. We cover latest structural insights, specialized functions, biogenesis, and localization. We hope you find it as engaging to read as we found it to write! nature.com/articles/s4157…

We are offering a PhD project entitled “The impact of environmental cues in antimicrobial resistance spreading” in the SSCP DTP to start in Oct 2024. Details about the program, application process and project on offer: ow.ly/h29G50LpqNF shorturl.at/fJW25 Please RT!

Last day in the lab before writing up 🥲 at least the grids look nice ❄️ #cryoem

Back home for Christmas! Believe it or not but my family is not too happy with me occupying the projector for Cooting… 😅 #StructuralBiology #Coot

Happy new year 😅

Going through parts of my thesis and decided to share this one here. A perfect example of why diversity is so important in academia. Some sources are not available in English, but this should not devaluate them. Crohn’s or Leśniowski-Crohn’s disease? Crohn's & Colitis UK #IBS

Trying to explain to my flatmates that part of my research is playing this game called “make balls green”

are you sure, Phenix? 🤔

In our article published today nature , we report complete all-atom structural models of a fully packaged bacteriophage particle. Congratulations to Kush Coshic on his first publication! Many thanks to Chris Maffeo and David Winogradoff for pushing this 6-year project forward.

My grandfather built motors that powered big machines. In a lab not so different from his workshop, my colleagues and I uncovered the assembly of the bacterial motor. Today, this discovery has been published in Nature Microbiology #MolecularNodes #Discovery nature.com/articles/s4156…

Congratulations to Professor Xiaodong Zhang & Professor José Penadés (José R Penadés) CBRB for being elected as fellows of the The Royal Society! 🎉 Fellowships are given to distinguished scientists in recognition of their contributions to science.⤵️ imperial.ac.uk/news/253353/se…

Many congratulations to the newly minted Dr Patkowski Jonasz B. Patkowski for passing his PhD viva without corrections!! Thank you, Ana Eulalio and Han Remaut, for the the examination! CBRB Imperial Life Sciences Imperial College London

Much needed writing companion. Thanks to Siân Owen for the template 😍🦠 you can download it from here scholar.harvard.edu/sianowen/paper…

Congrats, Lingchen! Make sure to check out the paper to find out about this new and really cool family of anti-phage systems!

Latest from the lab! PICI and prophage-encoded Tai proteins protect cells by blocking phage tail assembly. Prophages counter with a mechanism allowing tail formation after induction. Defence and counter-defence genes are organised for expression. nature.com/articles/s4146…
