Now we can all be 'Goodsell' artists - man!

A scientific paper today is inspired by more disciplines than ever before, shows a new analysis marking Nature's 150th anniversary. go.nature.com/36LXbKv #Nature150

Aren't those sunrises just liberating in #Zurich? DJ Muller should move there ;-)

Our latest paper Nature Materials describing molecular mechanisms of how protease activated receptors employ GPCR- & integrin-signaling pathways to activate integrins, induce ligand binding & orchestrate adhesion assembly of non-hematopoietic cells. rdcu.be/b0IyY

Congratulations to Mike Hall Biozentrum, University of Basel University of Basel and Prof. David Sabatini Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for receiving the Sjöberg Prize 2020 for the discovery of mTOR and its role in the control of cell metabolism and growth.

News & Views: Tumours are often stiffer than normal tissues and show abnormally fast metabolism of glucose. A Nature paper shows the link between these two traits involves tension in a network of protein filaments in cells. go.nature.com/39EDZiB

Cool stuff!

❗️Paradigm shift❗️: The cell nucleus is not only a passive storehouse for genetic material but an active compartment rapidly converting mechanical inputs into signaling & metabolic outputs. the-scientist.com/news-opinion/n…

Researchers analyzing the spike protein of #SARSCoV2 before viral entry identified three “shielded” hinges in the spike that may allow it to scan the host cell surface while avoiding antibodies, thanks to glycan shielding. Read the study in Science: fcld.ly/c4jan4h
