Our new movie is online, highlighting the assembly, secretion and mechanism of action of bacterial Tc toxins. We hope you enjoy it and use it for teaching purposes or just for fun. Nature is fascinating!

Multistate kinetics of the syringe-like injection mechanism of Tc toxins
Tc toxins perforate cells via a multistep process involving three intermediates, modulated by lipids, receptors, and pH.

Let's start here with some good news!
The @raunser-lab.bsky.social is one of the first 2 labs in the @maxplanck.bsky.social to be certified by my green lab! The lab team included a couple of sustainable best practices, like changing/reducing consumables, saving liquid nitrogen... #LabSustainability

Here is our preprint on the multi-state kinetics of the syringe-like injection mechanism of Tc toxins. Great collaboration between our lab @mpi-dortmund.bsky.social, the Seidel lab @hhu.bsky.social, the Bordignon lab - University of Geneva and the Dong lab - Harvard.

Let's start 2024 on Bluesky although the weather outside makes us believe that there are only grey rainclouds.
