    ⚠️Here’s yet another option other than BioRender! ⚠️ 📢 SciDraw is a free repository of high quality drawings of animals, scientific setups, and anything that might be useful for scientific presentations and posters. 🔁❤️Free Science! RIP BioRender!!

    AlphaFold can predict protein, DNA, or RNA complexes.. BUT is it easy to determine the reliable interactions?🤔 ➡️ AlphaBridge will identify the most confident interactions, making your analysis easier! 🌐Try it here: alpha-bridge.eu 👀Read more: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
    The left panel displays the pLDDT of the prediction, while the right panel shows the reliable interfaces

    ChimeraX 🆚 Blender 🎨 What do you use to create your figures? PDB: 8bbm - CHIMERAX is fast and easy but limited options - BLENDER is more complex but has unlimited options *Faster and easier with @bradyajohnston Molecular Nodes 🧵Post your figures in the comments 😁

    📢 Make your work FASTER and EASIER! Use AlphaBridge to analyze your AlphaFold results and receive a clear, easy-to-understand output—even for non-experts. ➡️ Let AlphaBridge help you accelerate your work! 🌐Try it: alpha-bridge.eu 👀Read more: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
    On the left is the structural output from the AlphaFold 3 server colored by pLDDT, which requires structural knowledge for interpretation. On the right is the AlphaBridge ring output, where the results are pre-analyzed and visually presented, making them easier to understand.

    📢 Here you have the alternatives: 🦠For icons and images, avoid BioRender; instead, use NIH BioArt, SciDraw, or BioIcons 🖥️For figure editing, skip Adobe, go for Inkscape 🤔Would you like a tutorial on how to use these tools? 🔁Spread the message! ❤️ and follow me for more!

    🔬 Alphafold marked a significant Breakthrough in protein prediction, yet it overlooked cofactors, ligands, and ions. 📢Shoutout to @Ida_deVries for her work on Alphafill, addressing the gaps left by Alphafold 🧬 🎬Blender animation of myoglobin filled with a heme group

    📢Highly recommended!! The molecular nodes of @bradyajohnston are really cool and simple!! It took me around 20 min to get this from scratch I think it makes it much easier if you want to create fancy figures/ covers for your presentations/posters/ etc Nucleosomes - 1bna

    It has been 1 year since I published my article about ENPP Family and I'm happy to see that people liked it. It's fascinating the structural and functional diversity of this family. Here you have the article if you wanna check it 😏 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #phdchat #phdlife
    The aim of the image is to represent the family diversity. The proteins haven't been models on the membrane. I have used the protein from Alphafold and added to the membrane

    📢I am happy to announce my new paper 🚨 📰"Autotaxin facilitates selective LPA receptor signaling" It shows the novel function of ATX-tunnel as LPA chaperone. This implies clinical benefits for tunnel-targeting ATX inhibitors in vivo, e.g. Ziritaxestat 🥰 Article link below 🧵
