Le fibrille amiloidi, a lungo associate a processi patologici, emergono come piattaforme per la catalisi.
Una review #UniNa #FedericoII ne esplora il potenziale come nanocatalizzatori bio-ispirati.

New review in #AdvancedScience: #Amyloids aren’t just disease markers—in bacteria, they’re dynamic, functional protein assemblies with roles in biofilms, catalysis, and more. Ripe for #biomaterials innovation!

Sofia Lövestam's vault structure is now online in Structure @cellpress.bsky.social. 🥳
How beautifully explorative is #cryoEM! We never planned to do this. The vaults just came down with #amyloids from human brain tissue, and Sofia decided to have a closer look.

If you're interested in #amyloids and want to visit Hamburg, the registration is still open until the end of July! 🧪🧬🧶

🧬 Our new paper "Allosteric amyloid catalysis by coiled coil fibrils" published in *Nat Commun*! https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-60379-z
We studied amyloids facilitating β-lactam antibiotic hydrolysis - work done at BGU during wartime. I remember stopping mid-working to run to shelters […]
Just visited Chicago for “Mathematics of the Origin of Life and Self-Organized Complexity” workshop in NITMB. BEAUTIFUL.
I presented two posters: one from my PhD work on catalytic amyloids, and another from my postdoc on enzymatic DNA editing.

Join us in Hamburg in September if you're interested in functional #amyloid fibrils or just #amyloids in general.
Abstract submission, early bird registration and travel grant applications are open!

Okay, so I'm not switching completely to #teamtomo
Helical reconstruction of #amyloids can be quite fun when you get beautiful structures like this!
And thanks to @sjorsscheres.bsky.social for the suggestion of higher order symmetries, it was indeed the case 😉🧪🧬🧶
Join our group as a BTA, help our research into functional #amyloids
We're a great group of people 😁

If you are interested in functional #amyloids, join us in September in Hamburg for our first Functional Amyloid Meeting! Abstract submission has already opened, and full registration will open shortly.

Both the authors and the reviewers are recommended to read the below papers on what to look out for and what to avoid in #cryoEM structure determination of #amyloids.
journals.iucr.org/d/issues/202...
pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...
Are bacterial #biofilms weaker if there is no food around?
And #amyloids? How does the biofilm #matrix molecular structure contribute to the biofilm macroscopic properties?

Yang's work on #amyloidbeta filaments from meninges is now out. A reminder that it is better not to build atomic models de novo into #cryoEM reconstructions of #amyloids at resolutions lower than 4A.
