Using a combination of X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM, a new study from @landaulabcssb.bsky.social shows that amyloids,form different structures that could be useful as a natural mechanism of immune protection.

The Barisch lab held a 2 week practical module called 'Molecular Master Thieves' including an excursion to FZB. It was amazing & inspiring to see the students' enthusiasm & curiosity.

We wish you all the best for your bright careers!

New preprint out!📃

This work uncovers how the clathrin adaptors Ent5 & Sla2
undergo LLPS, revealing distinct structural drivers that shape endocytic and trafficking dynamics.
