🧬 Our new paper "Allosteric amyloid catalysis by coiled coil fibrils" published in *Nat Commun*! https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-60379-z

We studied amyloids facilitating β-lactam antibiotic hydrolysis - work done at BGU during wartime. I remember stopping mid-working to run to shelters.

Thanks to the amazing team: Elad Arad, Sisira Mambram Kunnath, Ran Zalk, Anat Shahar, Albert Batushansky, Hanna Rapaport & Raz Jelinek 🙏

Okay, so I'm not switching completely to #teamtomo Helical reconstruction of #amyloids can be quite fun when you get beautiful structures like this! And thanks to @sjorsscheres.bsky.social for the suggestion of higher order symmetries, it was indeed the case 😉🧪🧬🧶

Molecular cooperation at the threshold of life

Protein-like aggregates known as amyloids can bind to molecules of genetic material. It is possible that these two types of molecules stabilized each other during the development of life—and that this might even have paved the way for the genetic code.

Read tomorrow's Nature to find out what we think 7 years of solving #cryoEM structures of brain-derived #amyloids has taught us about neurodegeneration, and where to go from here. With Michel Goedert and Ben Ryskeldi-Falcon; very grateful to present and past group members.

Coming Thursday, we have a big review coming out about our work on #cryoEM structures of #amyloids in the past 6-7 years. I will promote on Twitter, Mastodon and BlueSky, and analyse interactions on the different platforms.
