We are hosting candidates to apply for a PhD position with a full salary at University of Helsinki. This will be a co-supervised project with the group of Alexander Mühleip to study function, structures and draggability of ER protein translocation in different parasitic organisms.

How does a cell remodel the ER membrane into a lipid droplet? Excited to share our new bioRxiv preprint, where we find that regulated opening of the seipin ring defines a functional ER–lipid droplet interface — and identify SMLR1 as a regulator of this transition. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!! Check out our new preprint on human Connexin 45. Big ups to @shahshiva.bsky.social @ashwinikedari.bsky.social @Esa-Pekka Kumpula @Ameil Abettan @Vivek Sharma @juhahuiskonen.bsky.social

Check out our latest preprint on human Connexin 45 gap junction channel #gapjunction #connexin @helsinki.fi

Excited to share our latest preprint "Capsid Restructuring Activates Semi-Conservative dsRNA Transcription in Cystovirus ɸ6". We show that nucleotide-triggered disassembly of the outer capsid layer is followed by expansion of the inner layer and the stepwise assembly of transcription complexes.

Thrilled to see our latest work now in preprint. Massive shout out to all those involved. @juhahuiskonen.bsky.social

In our latest preprint on bioRxiv, we present the in situ structure of the human gap junction at 14 Å resolution using cryo-ET. The structure provides a blueprint for investigating how connexin regulation shapes intercellular communication in health and disease.
