Cryo-EM structures reveal molecular basis of human telomerase recruitment
Kelly Nguyen’s group in the LMB’s Structural Studies Division has determined the molecular basis of how the TPP1 and POT1 components of shelterin recruit human telomerase to telomeres and regulate the enzyme’s activity during genomic replication.
New method to discover protease and other hydrolase substrates in live mammalian cells
Using genetic code expansion techniques, Jason Chin’s group in the LMB’s PNAC Division have designed a new mechanism-based, light-activated technique to trap and identify new protease and other hydrolase substrates.
Lalita Ramakrishnan joins the LMB Cell Biology Division
Lalita Ramakrishnan, Head of the University of Cambridge’s Molecular Immunity Unit, has joined LMB’s Cell Biology Division as a Group Leader, continuing her pioneering work on tuberculosis using a zebrafish model.
Cambridge demonstrates how science is improving lives
The LMB recently welcomed George Freeman MP as part of a wider visit to the Cambridge Biomedical Campus to learn how Cambridge is leading innovation in life sciences. During a tour of the LMB with Jan Löwe, Chris Russo and Madeline Lancaster, the Minister saw and learned how developments in low-energy cryo-EM will increase accessibility […]
