Out just now @naturecomms.bsky.social: using cryo-EM and cryo-electron tomography, we provide evidence that structurally heterogeneous ribosomes can cooperate in protein synthesis in bacterial cells:

Here we unexpectedly find that the ribosomal protein S20/L26—identified at the dawn of ribosome research but later deemed a biochemical artifact—is indeed a genuine component of the large ribosomal subunit. More on this ribosome content variation is here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thanks, Friedrich!

Thanks a lot, Marius!

A great collaboration with the Schiebel Lab @zmbh.uni-heidelberg.de and the Gruss Lab @unibonn.bsky.social. Congratulations to all authors, in particular the shared first authors Qi Gao, Florian Hofer @florianwhofer.bsky.social, Bram Vermeulen @bram-vermeulen.bsky.social and Sebastian Filbeck!

Structural mechanisms for centrosomal recruitment and organization of the microtubule nucleator γ-TuRC - Nature Communications The γ-TuRC plays a central role for nucleation of microtubules at the centrosome. Here, the authors dissect structural mechanisms for centrosomal recruitment and regulation of the γ-TuRC and identify ...

Online today at @naturecomms.bsky.social and a great opportunity for our first post @bsky.app: in a major team effort, we reveal the structural mechanisms for centrosomal recruitment and organization of the human microtubule nucleator γ-TuRC: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
