Check out our recent preprint on the structure of a non C-JID TNL resistosome from flax.
We are very proud of the persistence of Natsumi who got this long running project over the line and a congratulations to all involved.
Check it out... doi.org/10.64898/2026.02.03.…

If one TNL resistosome wasn't enough for you this weekend. Checkout another! Amazing work by all involved!
Coordinately submitting with @Kobe_Lab_ we're proud to report great collaboration with Selvaraj in @KamounLab to reveal basis for recognition of multiple effectors by the same immune receptor, to extend that recognition and to see the preactivation state biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

We wrote a focussed review on recent structural advancements in NLRs. It was a lot to cover we tried our best. We hope its enjoyable to experts in the field and useful to newcomers. Check it out: doi.org/10.1111/tpj.70702Dig…

I am thrilled to release ProteinDJ: a high-performance and modular protein design pipeline. Our open-source workflow incorporates #RFdiffusion, #ProteinMPNN, #FAMPNN, #AlphaFold2 and #Boltz-2. It is a fast, free, and fun way to design proteins (1/5)

Excited to see our Arabidopsis TIRome paper published in PNAS. Have a read here doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2505893….
We hope this is the start of tuning TIR domains 😎

Plant TIR domains are the coolest TIR domains! Privileged to be a part of this work, that is up on bioRxiv. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Excited to share our work in @PNASNews .
We report the cryoEM structures of both TRIF and TRAM uncovering the molecular basis of TRIF-mediated TLR3 and TLR4 signalling pathways.

It has been a roller coaster year for me after experiencing extreme happiness and loss. Today I’m starting as a new PI @ANUChemistry. Very grateful to all my extended academic family @BiologyANU and all past and current mentors. Looking forward to forge new networks and collabs!

This week we had the pleasure of hosting cryo-EM guru @OliBClarke who gave the @UQ_News cryo-EM community a fantastic cryo-EM data-processing workshop. Thank you Oli for sharing your tricks with us, @FarrahBlades for wrangling the Bunya supercomputer, and all who attended! 🔬

Had a blast the last couple of days learning how to use our brand new Oryx8 crystallisation robot from @DougInstruments! First robot for the lab and first Oryx8 in Australia! 💎 #gulbaliinstitute #charlessturtresearch
