Our paper using ProteinMPNN redesign for improved properties is up on JACS! Huge thanks to Reyes, Indrek Kalvet, Sam, and many others for their work. Shout out to Justas Dauparas for developing such a groundbreaking (and versatile!) tool. Institute for Protein Design pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

My first paper at Oxford Chemistry is out in Nature Photonics: Single-protein optical holography! Big thanks to Emanuel Pfitzner and Philipp Kukura. We improved the sensitivity of optical holography by orders of magnitude to detect single proteins. 1/5 nature.com/articles/s4156…

Super excited to share our paper “Design of amyloidogenic peptide traps” is out now! 🧠 nature.com/articles/s4158… Special thanks to Ewa Andrzejewska , Danny Sahtoe and David Baker

The Haselbach Lab is on the hunt for passionate PhD student to explore the mysteries of the ubiquitin proteasome system within gametes through cryoET, or dive into the dynamic world of E3 Ligases using time-resolved cryo-EM. Apply by April 15th.

My group at ISTAustria is recruiting a lab manager/research technician to join when we start in July! If you're passionate about science and thrive in a dynamic environment, apply here: ista.ac.at/en/job/?title=… #ResearchJobs #LabManagement #ScienceCareers

Very cool application of de novo protein design to a real-world problem. Great Job Susana Vazquez Torres and team!

Great to *finally* see this one published in its final form

I am very excited to welcome the very first postdoc (actually first group member) in my new lab ISTAustria: Welcome Iori Morita!

Now online: We developed novel oligomers and turned them into FGFR agonists via binder induced receptor clustering. #denovo_proteins sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congratulations Lukas Milles! This is going to be a great place ro be for students and postdocs. Also, now I'm curious about the "more to follow...."

Our work validating designed membrane b-barrels in silico is published! It started as Elixir #3DBioinfo meeting discussion (I generated models instead of preparing my talk), then a fun exchange with Sergey Ovchinnikov. Thanks to all! VIB_StructuralBiologyBrussels ELIXIR Belgium onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pr…

Today in nature we present the results of our exploration of the soluble protein universe and the design of functional soluble membrane proteins with Casper Goverde Nico Goldbach Bruno Correia 1/6 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our nanopore design paper is now published! We developed computational methods to design de novo pores with custom size, conductance and shape. We hope the technology will advance a range of sensing applications. VIB_StructuralBiologyBrussels VIB VIB.AI science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Passionate about AI + Proteins? We are hiring deep-learning scientists at all levels. We are in a privileged location with extensive resources. Junior or senior, if this resonates with you, apply now! recruitment.crg.eu/content/jobs/p…

Hot off the press: New paper about computational design of oligomeric proteins that can be triggered to change size and shape through allostery. Check out the beautiful thread by Arvind S Pillai !

Three ISTAustria scientists have won @erc_research Starting Grants #ERCStG! A combined 4.8 million euros will go to Marco Mondelli, Alicia K. Michael, and Lisa Bugnet. Read more about the scientists and their projects 🔗 bit.ly/3XvfQXo

#MERS vaccines built on our two-component protein nanoparticle platform induce robust neutralizing antibody responses and protect mice against vaccine-matched challenge. This collaborative project was led by Cara Chao and is out now on bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
