ISBCGranada

New year, new hopes and a new edition of ISBC2026, stay tuned.

First issue of 2026 is out: journals.iucr.org/f/issues/2026/… On the cover: single surface substitutions improve the crystallizability and diffraction properties of a flexible two-domain protein, even if they increase the entropy of the respective residue. More at doi.org/10.1107/S20532…

Just published today: Macromolecular crystallography for mammalian body temperature in support of molecular biophysics methods | Biophysical Reviews link.springer.com/article/10.100…

I am really happy to share with you our latest publication on turning the inhibiting nucleation effect of silica gel on protein crystallization by increasing the hydrophobicity through controlled functional modification. @LEC_CSIC, @IACT_divulga pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

A new protein sequencing method, which uses a biological motor to pull a protein through a tiny nanopore, could revolutionise protein analysis. chemistryworld.com/news/nanopore-…

Our last review now out in Trends In Microbiology: Structural and functional diversity of sensor domains in bacterial transmembrane receptors @BLASTMeetings @SEMicrobiologia @miguel_matilla @gavirius @Eli_Monteagudo @zhulinlab sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Very pleased to see that out in PNAS: Bacterial sensor evolved by decreasing complexity. Evolution is not always towards complexity. Yet another wonderful collaboration with @zhulinlab @gavirius and @miguel_matilla,@BLASTMeetings @SEMicrobiologia pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

📽 Here is a video of lanthanum hexaboride being injected into the levitator on the I19 beamline to watch powder and subsequently crystal formation with diffraction data collected for both.

#CallForPapers 📷Happy to announce the new Special Issue: "Pharmaceutical and Biotechnological Applications of #Protein #Crystals" Guest Editors: Dr. Fiora Artusio and Dr. José Gavira @LEC_CSIC @DETatPolito Deadline: 27 September 2024 📷mdpi.com/journal/crysta…

Join us to discuss the future of structural biology! We are honored to have outstanding speakers. The workshop will open with an introduction to neutron scattering and diffraction for students and post-docs – travel awards are available! conference.sns.gov/event/402/

PDBe's ligand data has had a major upgrade! Find all types of ligand info in the archive, thanks to a better organized FTP area. Plus, get comprehensive data on protein-ligand interactions & functional annotations. ⬇️⬇️⬇️Find out more ⬇️⬇️⬇️ ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/news/impr…

The new leaflets of IUCr-2029 is ready. We will distribute it for the first time at the DGK meeting in Bayreuth, but it will also be on the web and in the social media. @DGK @JKYC_DGK @JKYC_DGK

This year we meet in Ceske Budejovice (Czech Republic). 09 to 15 of June. macromolcryst2024.febsevents.org

What a great morning at XXXI Simposio @ICIQchem. A two picks...@BioMolNano_bmG & @iqf_csic more to come :

If you're at, or interested in, the @ccp4_mx Study Weekend, we've just compiled a virtual issue of contributions from the 2022 #CCP4SW on Current Trends in Macromolecular Model Refinement and Validation: take a look at tinyurl.com/3ayhpe2k

Dr. Juan José Díaz Mochón, @jjdmochon, kicking off the first session of the IV SIMPOSIO DE TERAPIAS AVANZADAS Y TECNOLOGÍAS BIOMÉDICAS of @ibsGRANADA with his talk “Diagnostic Platforms for Liquid Biopsy Detection of Tumor Biomarkers” 🤩
