Very excited to see this work, on our insecticidal pore forming protein come out. This was an enormous amount of work and outstanding collaboration between Monash and Cardiff Uni. first put together by Prof Colin Berry. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Structural basis for independent pore function of Vpb4 from Bacillus thuringiensis - Nature Communications

Bacterial Exotoxin B proteins are typically binary pore-forming toxins. Here, authors characterise Vpb4, a homologue from entomopathogenic Bacillus thuringiensis, and reveal the structural basis enabl...

Great to see our work on the #cryoem structure of the human TSC:WIPI3 lysosomal recruitment complex! Awesome effort from co-authors @charlesbj.bsky.social and Laura D'Andrea with @drellisdon.bsky.social doing the heavy lifting leading the project. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Structure of the human TSC:WIPI3 lysosomal recruitment complex

The complete TSC structure reveals how lysosomal targeting proteins and phosphoinositides coordinate mTORC1 inhibition.
