Nucleic acids as key to a new class of drugs

In our "EXplained" video series, we present the seven Clusters of Excellence with which our university is entering the next funding phase of the Excellence Strategy. In the second episode, we get to know the new cluster NUCLEATE, which is represented at TUM by Prof. Stefan Engelhardt.

🎨 🧬 Take a look at the extraordinary watercolor paintings in the Molecular Landscapes Gallery by David S. Goodsell.

The watercolor paintings of David S. Goodsell integrate information from #StructuralBiology, #Microscopy and #Biophysics to simulate detailed views of the molecular structure of living cells. #Proteins, #NucleicAcids, and #LipidMembranes are shown; #SmallMolecules, ions, and water are omitted for clarity.

Pretty big crowd at the #ISNAC2023 meeting - on #NucleicAcids #Chemistry
I thought I did ok - went over Advances in #DNA & #RNA #Polymer hybrids. Key slide ⅓ of the way through after acknowledgements & background I showed the headers, titles of the 4 papers my student has out - in Chem, Precision Chem, JACS and ACS Nano, the last one just 2 weeks ago.
Told the audience he was happy, I was happy, and I hope they would read the papers, so "you too will be happy"
Just one slight chuckle

A biological camera that captures and stores images directly into DNA - Nature Communications

DNA data storage has gained recent interest due to the high information density of DNA. Here, the authors have developed a method to directly capture information in the form of light and encode it into DNA via bacteria, analogous to a digital camera.

@ParadeGrotesque Thank you! I work on #nucleicacids and am a #crystallographer.

Greetings! A quick #introduction here on FediScience. I am a scientist working in #biophysics and #structuralbiology. Interested in using biophysical tools like #NMR, #SPR, #Xraycrystallography and #CryoEM to understand the interactions between small molecules and #biomolecular targets like #proteins and #nucleicAcids to make better #medicines. I work in the #pharma industry and my most recent proud achievement is that I was part of the discovery team for the #COVID #Vaccine.
