Our CydDC paper is finally out on Nature Chemical Biology! A systematic approach using cryoEM not only for solving structures but more importantly as a scalable analytical tool. Structures from 23 biochemically defined conditions revealed the substrate of this unique ABC transporter : heme!

What single-particle cryoEM is capable of doing to reveal the conformational dynamics of an unique ABC transporter? Check our newest paper published today on Nature Chem Bio Nature Chemical Biology! A systematic approach using cryoEM as a scalable analytical tool😎 nature.com/articles/s4158…


Congratulations to Safarian lab at Max Planck Max Planck Institute of Biophysics !! It was a real pleasure working with you! Safarian Lab Di Wu nature.com/nchembio/volum…


And the greatest credit goes to the team leader Safarian Lab, who initiated this project actually in 2017! Now we finally made it😉😉🎉🎉

The role of CydDC, a potential target for new antibiotics, in the bacterial energy metabolism has remained nebulous for decades. Scientists from our Institute, Amsterdam Institute for Life and Environment, @UGent, University of Kent solved the riddle: CydDC is a heme transporter👉biophys.mpg.de/cyddc #biophysics #cryoEM


Was an absolute pleasure to host the first #CryoEM workshop at the #Fraunhofer ITMP in collaboration with #Thermo! Many thanks to our fantastic speakers Ieva Drulyte, Cornelius Gati, Di Wu, and Mark A. Nakasone!

It was a lot of fun! Really enjoyed it! Thank you Deniz Ugurlar and Safarian Lab for organizing this great event!

Tracking down rare diseases: Researchers from our Institute, Fraunhofer ITMP, NUS, University of Washington & Goethe-Universität studied the structure & cellular function of #FLVCR proteins paving the way to understand the progression of rare diseases & develop new therapies👉biophys.mpg.de/tracking-down-…
