Emergent behavior in biomolecules. I study how biomolecules interact. Not just 1 or 2 molecules, but moles of them.

How do proteins mis-fold? New preprint led by @JAunstrup from @alexander_buell @biophysics_dtu group with MD simulations by Abigail Barclay. We combined experimental measurements of Φ-values with restrained simulations to study the TSE for fibril growth doi.org/10.26434/chemr…




New paper from @PernillaWittung et al explores elongation kinetics of #Parkinsons-associated α-synuclein with Thioflavin-T fluorescence & solution state NMR spectroscopy, & finds elongation of synuclein amyloids involves distinct kinetic regimes cell.com/biophysj/fullt…












@SchmitBiophys showed how the network structure encode the functional properties of condensate to give unique structure/function properties. He also reminded us that about the limitations of condensates as reaction crucibles: Slow diffusion. ⬇️ doi.org/10.1101/2022.0…
