Generating structural and biochemical insight into multi-subunit complexes
Structure elucidation remains a crucial step towards understanding protein structure-function relationships at the molecular level. As such, structural studies are key in our understanding of conformational changes, binding epitopes and mode of interaction with binding partners.
Between Bench and Bedside: Bringing Scientific & Clinical Expertise Together to Tackle ALS
Philip Van Damme of the VIB - KU Leuven Center for Brain & Disease Research published a paper this week in Brain titled: Genetic variability in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Neuroscience communicator of the center, Bethan Burnside, talks in her blog about ALS, the genetics behind it and the collaboration with clinical partners.
