🌀New cover alert! The amazing work of.@FlorentWaltz and colleagues made it on the cover of.@ScienceMagazine and I had the honor to create the visuals! . #sciart #coverart #blender3d.

RT @FlorentWaltz: The final version of our work on the in-cell architecture of the mitochondrial respiratory chain is now online in @Scienc….

Happy Holidays everyone ⭐! I hope you enjoy some relaxing time with your loved ones.

If you're in need of festive (bio)molecules, here are some ⭐-shaped suggestions .1: A cyanostar .2: PDB 8I6G .3: PDB 6M6G .4: PDB 6Y83 . SMILES for the cyanostar are below, so you don't have to draw it by hand (unlike me 😅) .Feel free to add your favorite festive molecule!

I think is about time. See you on the other side 👋. I will be still around here from time to time, but hopefully transition fully in the near future.

🪙 Congratulations to David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John M. Jumper for winning the #NobelPrize in Chemistry! . As a former scientist working in biocatalysis, it’s fascinating to me how protein design & prediction have evolved so rapidly in recent years. So well deserved!

🕸️ John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton have been awarded the #NobelPrize for “foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”. #NobelPrize2024

🪙Big win for a (literally) tiny biomolecule! Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun have been awarded the #NobelPrize for their discovery of microRNA. #NobelPrize2024

#SciartSeptember Day 30 (random edition) .This is the last day of the challenge. Thank you so much for joining me! Enjoy the last entry: a cute and fluffy mini protein 😊. I hope you had as much fun as I did. See you in October 💛. #sciart rendered with @Blender

#SciartSeptember Day 29 (random edition) .Today I rendered a nucleosome core particle. A beautiful histone protein octamer with a DNA superhelix around it 🧬. #sciart rendered with @Blender

#SciartSeptember Day 28 (random edition) .I love using wireframes for protein surface depiction. This time I made a protein out of wire 😊. #sciart rendered with @Blender

#SciartSeptember Day 27 (random edition) .A tribute to one of the best known enzymes in #biocatalysis: Candida antarctica Lipase B (CALB) ❄️. #sciart rendered with @Blender

#SciartSeptember Day 26 (random edition) .Ubiquitin is literally everywhere. So of course it needs to be featured!. #sciart rendered with @Blender.#biochemistry

#SciartSeptember Day 25 (random edition) .The smell of freshly cut grass: 3-hexenyl acetate. #sciart rendered with @Blender.#chemistry

#SciartSeptember Day 24 (random edition) .Penicillin bound to the beta-lactam binding site of penicillin acylase 🫧. #sciart rendered with @Blender.#biochemistry

#SciartSeptember Day 23 (random edition) .DNA tightly snuggling between protein subunits 😊. #sciart rendered with @Blender.#biochemistry #dna

#SciartSeptember Day 22 (random edition) .So beautiful and yet so scary: viruses .Here you see the Banna virus. #sciart rendered with @Blender

#SciartSeptember Day 21 (random edition) .Today's spotlight is on arsenolipids. Styling small molecules can sometimes be more challenging than biomolecules (because just have spheres to work with 🙃). But I enjoy that challenge and simplicity ☺️. #sciart rendered with @Blender

#SciartSeptember Day 20 (random edition) .Spidroins are the predominant proteins in spider silk, a fascinating material that definitely needs to be featured 🕷️ 🕸️. #sciart rendered with @Blender

#SciartSeptember Day 19 (random edition) .Today's entry highlights alcohol dehydrogenase from horse liver, encapsulated in a wire frame🕸️. #sciart rendered with @Blender
