How bacterial Tc toxins work: secretion, pore formation and host cell disruption.
Our new movie is online, highlighting the assembly, secretion and mechanism of action of bacterial Tc toxins. We hope you enjoy it and use it for teaching purposes or just for fun. Nature is fascinating!

Multistate kinetics of the syringe-like injection mechanism of Tc toxins
Tc toxins perforate cells via a multistep process involving three intermediates, modulated by lipids, receptors, and pH.

Let's start here with some good news!
The @raunser-lab.bsky.social is one of the first 2 labs in the @maxplanck.bsky.social to be certified by my green lab! The lab team included a couple of sustainable best practices, like changing/reducing consumables, saving liquid nitrogen... #LabSustainability
