Discovering Glycosylation-Dependent Protein Function by Thermal Proteome Profiling Protein glycosylation regulates essential cellular processes including protein folding, stability, and cell-cell interactions; however, how aberrant glycosylation impacts protein function and interact...

Congratulations former postdoc @jfhevler.bsky.social (in transit to Roche) and the team on their work using thermal proteome profiling along with glycosylation perturbagens to discover glycan-dependent protein functions at the proteome scale 👏

We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Amos Bairoch, pioneer of bioinformatics and co-founder of SIB. His lifelong commitment for high-quality, open data transformed global research. We honour his legacy by continuing to build the future of bioinformatics.

RIP Amos! I was lucky to meet him in Geneva and thanked him for his contribution to bioinformatics for my own research.

3/3 GlycoShape is an open access library of glycan structures from MD simulations that gives users all the diff structures significantly occupied at equilibrium and tools to reconstruct the target glycoproteins with a single representative conformer (Re-Glyco) or multiple (Re-Glyco Ensemble)

An ultrasensitive and modular platform to detect Siglec ligands and control immune cell function Siglec-liposomes are a multivalent and modular platform for profiling Siglec ligands and modulating immune cell function.

Excited to share our laboratory's research tools to study Siglecs along with some interesting discoveries with these tools. Lot of help from many group, but @zeinab-jc.bsky.social was the major driver of this work. Please reach out if you would like to try them out. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Happy to connect with someone whose work inspired mine!
