A plant dual-kinase protein traps a pathogen effector to trigger immunity - Nature Genetics Tandem kinase proteins (TKPs) are key regulators of plant immunity. We found that RWT4, a wheat TKP, confers resistance to the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae by directly recognizing the effector A...

Plant pathogenic fungi hijack phosphate signaling with conserved enzymatic effectors Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is essential for life, and plant cells monitor Pi availability by sensing inositol pyrophosphate (PP-InsP) levels. In this work, we describe the hijacking of plant phosphate s...

A wonderful collaboration with the Schaffrath @rwth.bsky.social and Oliveira-Garcia groups! Huge credit to Carl Mcombe and Alex Wegner.

HI old friends! Finally took the leap here to say I have several open positions going in my lab at the moment (and more to come).
1) PhD studentship in collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society (genomics)
2) Biochemistry Postdoc to understand how Starships move

If you're from the UK and are looking for a PhD, don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity! Amazing lab and amazing project!

Yes, that was made in blender too!

Excited for more #sciart! Here is a #blender render of a small #fusarium effector I solved during my PhD

In case you missed it, here is the TSL Autumn Symposium 2024 in full 🍿

Could you add me please 🤩

I created this Starter Pack for PhDs and Postdocs in Structural Biology to help connect with colleagues who share similar interests and concerns in the field.

Feel free to recommend people or yourself! I'll be adding people 💪🏼😁

First post on bluesky! Sharing some photogenic protein crystals I got a few months back 💎. Shame they didn’t diffract as well as they look

Hi everyone,
I created a starter pack for all fungal biologists.
Tell me who I should add or if you want to be part of it!
