Cryo-EM combined with AI to advance our understanding of native cell extracts!

Featured

We welcome 2022 with our latest publication on Structure, on how the latest advances in AI-driven protein model prediction can help us in the interpretation of complex cryo-EM data from native cell extracts! We are very excited about the impact Continue reading Cryo-EM combined with AI to advance our understanding of native cell extracts!

The seminal lab paper is out! Visualizing metabolons from native cell extracts at unprecedented resolution!

Featured

I am feeling very proud and honored to have worked together with my team to publish this seminal work of us in Cell Reports. This work described for the first time the endogenous, full metabolon of pyruvate oxidation with cryoEM Continue reading The seminal lab paper is out!

Incredible news to kick off 2025! 🥳

Secured €9.2 million in funding from the European (ERDF/EFRE) and State sources to upgrade my cryo-EM infrastructure at The Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg – We will accelerate structural biology, materials, and green energy research!I deeply thank my lab members, Continue reading Incredible news to kick off 2025! 🥳

Really happy with both laboratories – MLU Halle & NHRF Athens celebrating 1 year!

After a year of leading the two laboratories, I am pleased to say that knowledge transfer to NHRF is efficiently happening, while in Halle the laboratory produced high-level teaching and research at extremely high level. We also had a lab Continue reading Really happy with both laboratories – MLU Halle & NHRF Athens celebrating 1 year!

AlphaFold2 and Proteomics data help interpret native cell extracts

In a collaborative effort with the Sinz lab, our Post-doc Christian led a project on the utilization of AI-derived protein modeling based on mass spectrometry data, in order to interpret unknown cryo-EM maps from within native cell extracts! This type Continue reading AlphaFold2 and Proteomics data help interpret native cell extracts
