Huge congratulations to Ed and co on this! Once you are a part of the HD research community you never really leave and this news is just so amazing 🥲

Truly a Berlin snowman

I think my main marketable skill is being able to tell whether Trent Reznor made the soundtrack without having to look it up

A nice write up on the paper and our findings in Chemistry World, thank you @gomobel.bsky.social!

Debunked dogma: disordered proteins disregard ligands’ chirality 🧬 my latest story for @chemistryworld.bsky.social on a fantastic and surprising Nature paper by Johan Olsen and Birthe Kragelund teams 🇩🇰 Read more below! #realtimechem #chemsky 🧪 www.chemistryworld.com/news/debunke...

So excited that the work on protein chirality and the origins of life on this planet will continue with this grant awarded to @bbkrage.bsky.social - huge news! Stort tillykke!!! www.carlsbergfondet.dk/det-har-vi-s...

A look at just how disordered a disordered protein-protein pair can get. Do they even care about stereochemistry any more?

We did this crazy project where we tried to see if proteins could interact with their mirror image ligand. Seems impossible when proteins need to form 3D structures to interact. But what about if the interaction remains disordered??? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Stereochemistry in the disorder–order continuum of protein interactions - Nature

Studies on protein–protein interactions using proteins containing d- or l-amino acids show that stereoselectivity of binding varies with the degree of disorder within the complex.

More followers on here in the last week than the last 6 months, I wonder what could have changed 😅😬

A labor of love - our review on why IDRs matter for cellular function is live in Nat. Rev. Mol. Cell. Biol: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Working with Birthe Kraglund on this was such a pleasure, and we hope this review will be helpful to a broad audience!

Feeling vulnerable (writing a research proposal)

i research neurodegenerative proteins (& other idps!) & how their interactions lead to pathology. have bounced between huntington's, alzheimer's & parkinson's, & from structural biology to mouse models & human tissues, so v much a jack-of-all-trades when it comes to neurodegenerative diseases

migrating to a new platform feels harder than moving internationally in my 30s honestly
