What nanobodies can do for you - Nature Methods Since the chance discovery of nanobodies in the late 1980s, their uses and applications have kept growing. Researchers are now exploring new ways to harness nanobody versatility.

Researchers are exploring new ways to harness the versatility of nanobodies, which are smaller camelid antibodies. @vivienm.bsky.social asked scientists about some of their current and future nanobody work.

This looks remarkable!! Building my favorite subcellular structure from the ground up--WOW!!

Add me please.

The sarcomere is the elementary contractile unit of muscle, driving all volunatry motion and heart beat in animals. How these “cytoskeletal crystals” self-assembly is only partly understood.

🏋️Our review on how to build muscle is out in
@biophysicalreviews.bsky.social: The Physical Basis of Sarcomere Assembly. We critically review past models and discuss a new mechanism that unifies past ideas, suggesting tension-driven self-organization. With
@frankschnorrer.bsky.social & Kolley-Köchel

Experimental structures provide valuable hypotheses and accelerate but do not replace evolutionary and statistical analyses of protein sequences

Cell fun 🤭

Seen on way back to London from ASCB. As Jez Carlton said “if rudder falls off will it regenerate”. Have a good flight home everyone after another great meeting…… long may ASCB continue

SY-Stem 2026 is here! The symposium focusing on the next generation of stem cell researchers returns to the Vienna BioCenter from 11–13 March 2026. Register online: sy-stem.org
