Our goal is to understand life and disease at atomic detail. We use #cryoEM, #NMR spectroscopy, #Xray #crystallography, #SingleMolecule spectroscopy, #MassSpectrometry and #computational tools to determine the mechanisms underpinning biological function.

Beautiful work from @JunminPengLab, presenting comprehensive proteomics and phosphoproteomics data from 5 different mouse models for Alzheimer’s disease at different ages, with comparison to human data and many insights, out in @NatureComms Congrats @YarbroJay & all coauthors!
Excited to share our new paper! We mapped proteomic changes in AD models, revealing shared pathways with human AD and delayed protein turnover in amyloid plaques. Read more: https://t.co/gmXsIDbUDs
