Postdoc in the Peckham Lab (University of Leeds) using Structural Biology & Molecular Dynamics to study all things myosin, kinesin, microtubules, and coiled coils. Views my own.
Really nice work Raul & team!

Excited to share our latest preprint from the @michellepeckham.bsky.social lab ๐
We reveal the structure of human non-muscle myosin 2A โ showing how ionic interactions control auto-inhibition โก and how disease mutations disrupt it ๐ช

Happy to share the inaugural paper from the lab. We describe a molecular mechanism for the activation of outer dynein arm motors that power the vital motion of cilia.
