Frontiers | Neuronal expression of S100B triggered by oligomeric Aβ peptide contributes to protection against cytoskeletal damage and synaptic loss
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the intracellular deposition of Tau protein and extracellular deposition of...

Our paper on prediction of phase-separation propensities of disordered proteins from sequence is now published:
www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

The paper has been substantially updated compared to the preprint including new experimental data and using the neural network to finetune CALVADOS. 1/n

Looking forward #ADAM10 kick-off 🇸🇪 3 days of all things amyloid and great opportunity to meet old friends and making new ones! Thanks @professorpernilla.bsky.social and Elin Esbjorner et al for such a great program. Reach out if you are around

Our reseach combines #biochemistry, biophysics, and cell biology to unravel #ProteinInteractions and self-assembly and how #chaperones influence aggregation, #PhaseSeparation and #proteostasis. The image depicts S100B, a chaperone acting on #Tau and #AmyloidBeta, and one of our favorite models 🧪
