🚨Preprint! From my PhD “Genome delivery of a contractile tailed phage and its superinfection exclusion mechanism”. We use #cryoEM to study the genome ejection of the #phage T4, revealing how the tape measure protein regulates the process @NMITaylorLab

Excited to see our work published in @ScienceAdvances!
We present RBPseg, a method for structural prediction of #phage receptor-binding proteins.
We applied it to diverse tail fibers and validated the predicted structures using #cryoEM.

It's still amazing to remember the first time I saw the shape of this membrane complex.

They are busy passing the buck and making up lies, these false information have led the public astray. At the most critical moment, the President @realDonaldTrump has only an election on his mind.

-When reporters asked trump, what were you doing in February and early march，Mr.Trump showed impatience and quickly changed the subject.
-OK. The Internet has memories，let's review it for him.
-Who are the really terrible people?🤦♀️🤦He @realDonaldTrump missed the perfect time.

The amount of damage these people have caused is probably incalculable. They are all responsible for thousands more American deaths than there might otherwise have been. Never forget or let them forget they all killed Americans with their propaganda, lies, and bullshit.

Well done White House team—especially Jared for getting this delivery:
