In our latest review, we explore 12 deep-learning tools for metagenomic analysis, covering their strengths, limitations, and key applications. We hope it serves as both a resource and inspiration for new ways to analyze metagenomic data. Great work by Eli Levy Karin! 📄 doi.org/10.1093/nsr/...

The news getting you down? I invite you to stare at this chart of solar and wind deployed capacity in China. They blew past their ambitious 2030 target... last July.

Time to end the vascular plant chauvinism - "Bryophytes...flourish in environments where even the hardiest vascular plant species cannot survive"...the diversity of bryophytes surpasses that of ferns, lycophytes and grasses #botany www.nature.com/articles/s41... #botany 🧪🌾

Did you know #diatoms are motile? These tiny glass cells have no cilia or flagella and a rigid body yet can glide on surfaces using a specialised slit in the cell wall called the raphe! What is the functional morphology of the raphe? All revealed in our new preprint www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Photosynthesis is a molecular miracle: light becomes energy. Plants are nature's first chemists, crafting food from air and water. Without plants, there's no food chain. Plants fuel the world.

Really sad to see eLife dying bit by bit 😔 I really hoped it would change “the system”. My take home:1-academics are incredibly stubborn to change 2-even revolutions need to be pragmatic. You have to stay connected to the realities of the world

We have quite a range of PhD projects this year, covering cryo-EM methods, bacteriology/bioenergetics, and infection/antibiotics/vaccines. Would really appreciate if people can RT and share with their teams!

Faster and more accurate protein modeling with CryFold. By focusing on nearby points (Local Attention) and employing map masking, CryFold excels in generating models from challenging maps regions. It enables a more cost-efficient model building. 🧵 💾 github.com/SBQ-1999/Cry...

Great post to kickstart on Bsky! Inceptor was a tough one for #Massspec. Together with Sem Tamara we showed, among others, that #inceptor ectodomain binds #insulin and pro-insulin at low pH. Maybe #XL-MS will tell us where? 🙃 Thanks @heikolickert.bsky.social for involving us on this milestone :)

I took biochem in 2001, and for nearly 20 years read amino acid sequences daily… and I never knew Dayhoff named them or even the logic behind things like Q until last Friday (h/t Mike Janech). Also, this is another big Dayhoff moment for me. She was incredible! #proteomics #bioinformatics
