Happy to report that the paper reporting our tools FlaGs and WebFlaGs will soon be published. Give them a try here: http://webflags.se/

This was a really fun collaboration with the Wilson and Hauryliuk labs. Ribosomal protein synthesis without the small subunit, classical translation factors or even mRNA! Fun things happen during ribosome quality control

Target protection as a key antibiotic resistance mechanism https://www.nature.com/articles/s41579-020-0386-z

hope to share final version soon!

INTEGRATED STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY (ISB) POSTDOCTORAL PROGRAM PROJECT SUMMARY: Bacterial toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems have diverse functions, including defence against phages and maintenance of genetic elements. The lab of Gemma C. Atkinson has discovered a large network of promiscuous toxin-antitoxin domain pairs that swap partners across vast evolutionary distances. These novel TAs are being characterised microbiologically and…

Our ABCF paper available on BioRxiv here has been accepted to the Journal of Molecular Biology. It will appear in a special issue on antibiotic resistance in early 2019.

In this joint Hauryliuk/Johansson/Atkinson lab venture we aimed to establish the primary function of yeast eEF3: Elongation factor? Ribosome recycling factor? https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/09/10/413252
