BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

This year’s medicine laureates Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun studied a relatively unassuming 1 mm long roundworm, C. elegans. Despite its small size, C. elegans possesses many specialised cell types such as nerve and muscle cells also found in larger, more complex animals,

The Walter Neupert Lecture 2024. Congratulations to Prof. Dr. Elke Deuerling for receiving this year's Walter Neupert medal😊

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

The Nobel Prize David Baker's most cited paper: "The study explores new neural network architectures for accurately predicting protein structures from amino acid sequences. It is motivated by the impressive performance of DeepMind's AlphaFold2 in the recent CASP14 competition." full paper:

The family that makes and eats sushi together, stays together! The Annual Mokranjac Sushi Feast '24 was a wonderful time with past and present colleagues! Hearty conversations over food were very wholesome🥰🍣🥢 #sushi #AGMokranjac #teamwork

Dbi1 is an oxidoreductase and an assembly chaperone for mitochondrial inner membrane proteins. -> embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

Always a fun time to celebrate a publication!🎊 If you haven't yet, check out our latest paper in which we characterise Dbi1, an open reading that helps mitochondrial inner membrane proteins such as Tim17 gain its disulfide bond! doi.org/10.1038/s44319… #Dbi1 #Tim17

🚀 Excited to share our latest work on Mrx6 and mtDNA copy number regulation, now available on bioRxiv ! We uncover how Mrx6 and Mam33 interact with the Lon protease Pim1 to control substrate degradation. 🔬 Check it out here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #mitochondria #mtDNA
