Thanks Chris @LMCB_UCL and @CovinoLab for this nice spotlight! It really sums up well what we did and why we did it! And a big shoutout to @sriraksha616, the (great) mind behind it!.
Spotlight: Stefan @LMCB_UCL and @CovinoLab @goetheuni highlight a useful strategy by Srinivasan et al. @LabVanni ( to predict #lipid-binding pockets in lipid transfer proteins. #Biophysics #Membrane #StructuralBiology

@JCIM_JCTC @biocolloids @unifrChemistry @NCCRbioinspired @biorxiv @James_Saenz To make a long story short, we found that RNA order, mostly driven by H-bonds and low conformational entropy, promotes its adsorption to ordered membranes, via the matching of the membrane periodicity to that of RNA. As we are quite new on this, feedback is appreciated! (6/6).

@JCIM_JCTC @biocolloids @unifrChemistry @NCCRbioinspired @biorxiv Here, motivated by the recent wonderful work by @James_Saenz and others, we tried to understand what makes certain RNA love gel-phase zwitterionic PC #lipidtime bilayers… (5/6).

@JCIM_JCTC @biocolloids @unifrChemistry @NCCRbioinspired This gets a bit technical, but we found some limitations of current ion models, and we propose a protocol to solve these issues. While our work is specific to SPICA, we think both issues and solutions could be general to other coarse-grain force fields. Give it a look! (3/6).

First, Janak’s paper on re-parameterizing coarse-grain ions for the SPICA model is out in JCTC @JCIM_JCTC #OpenAccess! Thanks to all co-authors and to the @biocolloids lab @unifrChemistry @NCCRbioinspired for the experimental support (2/6).
