So excited to finally share this work - structure of Cx46/50 gap junction intercellular channels in a dynamic lipid environment, resolved at 1.9 Å by #CryoEM! With some MD-simulation to make it dance ;) Check it out on BioRxiv: shorturl.at/iEW34
Lead by an extraordinary team of grad/undergrad students: Jonny Flores (@CryoEMJonny), Bassam Haddad (@BassBioPhys), Kim Dolan and Janette Myers – and our wonderful collaborators Craig Yoshioka (@craigky), Jeremy Copperman and Dan Zuckerman @psu_research, @OHSUSOM
