Getting there.. #everydayimwaffling
Ready for some heavy lifting πͺ‘
Itβs one of the reasons why Iβm terrified of putting an out of office message
3dem madness π
Through proteomic profiling of our proprietary compound library, our team identified a selective, fast, and potent molecular glue degrader that induces cereblon degradation via a novel mechanism.

EXCITING NEWS!! We're searching for a new professor colleague at the Biozentrumπ¨π. Ideal candidates are exploring novel biological questions with structure, biophysics, or high-resolution imaging. π§ͺ π§Άπ§¬ π¬
The call closes Nov 3. Please get in touch if you would like more information. Come join us! π©βπ¬π€
What is the weight of an EM grid? π€
High-pressure freezer. Vitrifies samples that are too thick for standard plunge-freezing π
New toy installed π₯π§
Amazing, I wonder how many people are now sprinting back to some of their old data sets of small particles that they could never successfully process.. err, i have to go πββοΈπ¨
Yes great, new grid boxes that have no space to write on. With lids that no standard tool can open. π
Checked with Thermo, the plan 4 does take standard cassettes from standard nanocabs. The only thing that is (obviously) not compatible is the optional vacuum nanocab and the plan 3 autoloader (but it can be upgraded). The tomogrids are compatible with both autoloaders
βExisting instruments
equipped with an Autoloader can be retrofitted to be
compatible with both standard capsules and the
Vacuum Capsule.β This implies a system can take both types of capsules
Yeah thatβs if you want to use the new vacuum nanocab on the older systems.. but what about using the normal nanocab on the new autoloader?
Unless i misunderstand this somewhat hazy documentation, which is entirely possible π
I donβt think the plan 3 and plan 4 autoloaders are per se not compatible.. the plan 4 does still take the normal cassettes, right? Youβre only referring to the new TomoGrids for which you need the plan 4
Fair enough, but I normally have other plans in the night π€π€
Received program for amazing cryo-EM symposium π Itβs on a Saturday, 9-5 π€¦π»ββοΈ

Exciting! Can you let us know here π¦ how install and benchmarking is going?
Woohoo congrats!
No raw micrograph or processing figure?? Could you please add this during peer review ?@micharapelab.bsky.social
My UBR4, despite being very active, always looked like garbage on the grids. Need to dig in here to find the secret sauce! Congrats to @micharapelab.bsky.social lab et al
Nice π₯³
New #preprint - a amazing study of HECT ligase Tom1. This paper is a treat for those of you who LOVE #cryoEM and for those who love #ubiquitin! Congrats to the Fischer lab, including @moritzhunkeler.bsky.social and @ssroyburman.bsky.social who are on #bluesky.
