Good news from the ALab. We have just resubmitted our revised manuscript on the role of Homer proteins in YAP-Wnt signaling crosstalk. Here's the updated preprint: doi.org/10.1101/2025.... We’re truly grateful to the reviewers for their thoughtful comments and questions and hope they'll be happy...

Quick Check Needed

We are looking for a computational postdoc to work with us on new optimisation algorithms to make #RELION even better. Join our bubbly team at the @mrclmb.bsky.social in Cambridge, UK. 🤗 RTs appreciated.

We're thrilled to publish our latest research on the GLIC ion channel in PNAS!

We developed a powerful new #cryoEM data processing strategy that resolves asymmetry.

📄 Read the full paper: tinyurl.com/mustun6t 🛠️ Scripts: tinyurl.com/2n3yk29r

Stay tuned for a full tutorial soon!

Pleasure to be part of this work www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... with Sandip Basak at NTU where we show asymmetric gating in GLIC!

Special thanks to @sjorsscheres.bsky.social for developing #RELION, the powerful open-source software that made this analysis possible. If anyone has questions or would like guidance on using the scripts, please feel free to reach out!

Impressively, we were able to reconstruct nearly all asymmetric conformations previously proposed by @mishakudryashev.bsky.social. Below image shows the final outcome. Thanks @mishakudryashev.bsky.social for depositing the data.

This robust approach can be applied to process #cryoEM datasets of cyclic, pseudo-symmetric macromolecules. We’ve made our processing strategy available as user-friendly scripts on GitHub (tinyurl.com/3jenfw6j) and will soon upload a detailed tutorial using deposited 5-HT3AR dataset (EMPIAR-10381).

We are excited to share our latest work on GLIC published in @pnas.org, where we developed a #cryoEM data processing strategy that allowed us to isolate and reconstruct multiple asymmetric states, revealing detailed insights into the channel’s activation mechanism. tinyurl.com/mwtb4rpj
