Lipids challenge ligands to control receptors

The behaviour of a receptor protein can be influenced by the presence of certain lipids in the membrane it is embedded in.

Ooh, coarse-grained collagen cross-linking! Useful for studying age-related x-linking as the article mentioned, but hopefully also computational models towards understanding connective tissue disorders such as Ehlers Danlos..?
#OPENACCESS: Coarse-grained Martini 3 model for collagen fibrils. Matthias Brosz, Johanna Buck, Fabian Grünewald, Debora Monego, Jaewoon Jung, Yuji Sugita, Camilo Aponte-Santamaría, and Frauke Gräter.

Had the pleasure of participating in a small but lively meeting today to discuss the future of biophysics in Aotearoa New Zealand. A key conclusion: increasing visibility, inclusivity, and accessibility will be key to growing our kiwi biophysics community and increasing our international presence.

Had such a great time talking about membrane complexity in membrane protein MD simulations and sharing preliminary data from the first two months of my masters.
Thanks to the organizers for an amazing conference! #NZSBMB2025
