A team @mpi-cbg.de from @hymanlab.bsky.social & the @edinburghup.bsky.social (Richard Wheeler group) has identified the molecule lipoamide that can prevent the formation of pathological stress granules - protein-rich condensates associated with cellular stress and ALS. www.mpi-cbg.de/news-outreac...

Trigger warning: FOMO
How often do you go to a conference where you are excited about EVERY SINGLE TALK! Well, I guess it helps if you get to make the program. 😀
"Biomolecular condensates: From fundamental principles to applications in health and biotech" kicking off at 9 AM!
Das Leben erkennen: 🔬 Wie lassen sich Begegnungen von Molekülen sichtbar machen & was bedeutet das für die Entwicklung neuer Medikamente? Prof. Ulrich Rant stellt sich & seinen Forschungsschwerpunkt am 15.5. in der Universitätsweiten Antrittsvorlesung vor.

All atom simulations of peptides were used to investigate differences in pair interactions in dilute vs. dense phase mimics of condensates. Backbone-mediated interactions were found to weaken pairwise associations in dense phases giving rise to percolated networks. doi.org/10.1038/s420...

Just finished this review by @alexholehouse.bsky.social & @albertilab-tud.bsky.social. Balanced, careful about overstatements or ambiguities, but also bold in making proposals as to how these things called condensates work, or how me might understand them, in an approximated but useful way, to work.

We are looking forward to the workshop "Biomolecular Condensates and Polymer Phase Transitions" which we are organizing together with the IPF Dresden (dpd.ipfdd.de).
It will be held from May 25th - 28th, 2025 in Meißen, near Dresden.
The registration deadline is May 5th, 2025.
In the cover story of the February issue of @sciam.bsky.social I explain what biomolecular condensates are and why they are transforming cell biology. A short 🧵
