It turns out that, as Panos found out, organizing an EMBO workshop is hard, but highly rewarding work! Along with Sandro Keller (who is also a close collaborator of our group), Christian Löw and Christina Paulino, our Group Leader Panos Continue reading Organizing an EMBO workshop on the recent advances in structural biology of membrane proteins (and winning another poster prize in the process)!→

Structural insights into a metabolon-embedded transacetylase reaction powered by Cryo-EM!

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!
