Excited to share this paper from @yiechanglin showing how lipids can move between bacterial membranes along the bridge like protein TamB. Also happy to be able to post the cool movie. π₯π #MDsimulations #StructuralBiology doi.org/10.1016/j.bpj.2026.0β¦

How does your immune system tell pathogenic RNA from your own, even though theyβre made of the same stuff? Our latest paper with
@GantierLab
shows some self RNA act as an off switch preventing autoimmunity in the absence of pathogens. π§¬π¬β nature.com/articles/s41590-0β¦

Beginning 2026 with a flipping good paperπOSCA/TMEM63 proteins do double duty: theyβre ion channels andmechanically activated lipid scramblases helping reshape membranes and survive mechanical stress. π@yiechanglin @Charles_D_Cox

2 yrs ago @yiechanglin sent me this of lipid scrambling by OSCA1.2. Now we show itβs common to WT OSCA/TMEM63 proteins, mechanically activated, cholesterol dependent, and protects cells from damaging forces. Awesome collab with @Charles_D_Cox

Excited to share @john_d_tanner's new work in Nat Coms! We demonstrate how PfCRT, a polyspecific peptide transporter, turns into a drug transporter for antimalarials like chloroquine and why this causes a fitness cost for the malaria parasite (1/2)

Bittersweet to announce YC's final work in our lab. We are so proud of everything she's accomplished (incl. this beautiful study showing how the TAM complex facilitates lipid flow between the bacterial inner & outer membranes). We can't wait to see what you do next, Dr. Lin π€©

1/ In my final project as part of the @CorryLab, we show the bacterial TAM complex facilitates the spontaneous flow of phospholipids from the IM to the OM in MD simulations..

Thrilled to share our latest preprint from @yiechanglin & @ciara__wallis showing AF2-Multimer and AF3 can quickly & accurately predict the oligomeric states & structures of proteins (& maybe can identify multiple biologically relevant oligomeric states π)

Proud of our latest work w/ the Zhang lab showing from structure & simulation how XPR1, the only known human Pi exporter, is regulated by InsP8 & KIDINS220 Pi selection/permeation by a channel-like knock-kiss-kick mechanism

Excited to start the year with this lovely paper with @whoiselainetao showing that drugs that inhibit sodium channels bind in a range of sites within the pore cavity rather having a single distinct pose.

Tao and Corry @CorryLab @ANU_RSB_BSB investigate the binding of sodium channel inhibitors to the Naα΅₯1.5 pore using simulations, revealing promiscuous, polyspecific binding at the fenestrations and central cavity. hubs.la/Q031spy70
