Glad to share our new paper on exploring the limits of cryo-ET. We elucidate how the translation machinery in a simple bacterial cell work, from the near-atomic detail to a whole landscape picture. And what happen when perturbed by antibiotics. check out nature.com/articles/s4158…

Here we present tomoBEAR - our workflow for processing cryo-ET data for solving structures in situ. It helps us a lot in our group and we are happy to share it. Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Presented by: Nikita Nikita Balyschew Artsemi Artsemi Yushkevich Vasilii @mikahydrolysis et al

1/3 We have finally solved the mystery of Tc toxin secretion in the Stefan Raunser lab at MPI Dortmund! A few differentiated "soldier" cells per bacterial population produce these remarkable, ribosome-sized killer #nanomachines - and release them by exploding!

Have you ever wondered how really large protein complexes are secreted from bacteria? Here we demonstrate how 2.4 MDa Tc toxins are secreted by Yersinia entomophaga. Check out the masterpiece of Oleg Sitsel

For his PhD MPI Dortmund/Stefan Raunser, Zhexin (Eric) Wang established a new approach to visualise sarcomeres using electron cryo-tomography & cryo-focused ion beam milling to get the 1st molecular picture of mammalian muscle sarcomeres. Watch his Birnstiel Award talk: 📺youtu.be/5MTe5erpITk

It is my great honour to receive the Otto Hahn Medal! It has been my dream since I started my PhD. Thanks again my PhD supervisor Stefan Raunser! And thank @AndreaMusacchi1 for the laudation at the ceremony

TomoTwin 0.5 is here 🥳 Enjoy an embedding speed-up of 1.5x to 2x by using masks, get more accurate 🎯 cluster targets through medoids, and become more nerdy 🤓 through developer information snippets. All changes can be found here: tomotwin-cryoet.readthedocs.io/en/stable/chan…

Congrats and well done Davide!! A common question I got asked when I presented my previous work was: could you see titin and myosin binding protein C? Well, here they are! Beautiful work!
