We have a new manuscript out. It’s a very nice piece of work by @ow_noble. He has characterised the structure and biochemistry of a previously unstudied #MCM #helicase from the mesophilic archaeon M. acidophilum. Why is this work important? 🧵.
Fundamental steps in Minichromosome Maintenance complex assembly are conserved from archaea to eukaryotes #bioRxiv.

It’s been a fascinating day at the @royalsociety Industry College networking session and a great pleasure to talk about my industry fellowship project with @ElucedaLtd. Met lots of interesting people from both academia and industry.

Had a fun week in #Toronto at @ProteinEngConf. There were so many really cool talks. It was also great to talk about our @EPSRC funded work with @mackinderlab, @BPSIYork, @JNB_lab and others on discovery and engineering of pyrenoid proteins.
CsLinker: an algal pyrenoid assembly protein that binds the RbcL, complements across 800 My of evolution and phase separates plant Rubisco. Very excited to share this work by @james_r_barrett, @JNB_lab, @mjplevin, @BPSIYork, @McCormick_Lab. @JonikasLab

Our final speaker in the series was Maxie Roessler @RoesslerGroup from @imperialcollege who presented some very elegant #epr studies of electron transfer in respiratory complexes. @YSBL_York @JNB_lab @ChemBiolYork @BiologyatYork @ChemistryatYork @BiochemSoc @RoySocChem
We have a great selection of speakers lined up for the rest of the series @KateMadden17, @DrGlycoBen, @rebeccabev5, @MaleneRJensen, @ElisaTelisa, @TraceyGloster, @hw1o9, @RoesslerGroup @BiologyatYork @ChemistryatYork

There has been a massive cheese board at every meal at #AILM2024, a clear benefit of going to a conference in France 🇫🇷 🧀 . #NMR @IBS_Grenoble

It was wonderful to host Helen Walden @hw1o9 from @UofGSMB for a seminar yesterday. She presented some beautiful work on the structural biology of Fanconi Anemia DNA repair pathway. Thanks to sponsors @BiochemSoc and @TwistBioscience . @BiologyatYork @YSBL_York @ChemBiolYork.
