A new @nature #cryoEM study on #SARS-CoV-2 details the postfusion spike in a #lipidbilayer, defining the structure of critical membrane-interacting segments that may guide intervention strategies From researchers @ipiproteins @harvardmed & more ⬇️ nature.com/articles/s4158…


Thanks @ipiproteins for sharing our work!

From Viet Le & @timothyspringer of @timspringerlab @harvardmed @BostonChildrens: #Integrin αVβ6 has a specific & unappreciated role in #TGF-β2 activation, unlike the αVβ8-driven activation of TGF-β1/β3 & with big implications for fibrosis drug development pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…

Transforming growth factor (TGFß) is key regulator: immune system, development. There are 3 TGFß's; 1,2,3. Springer @BostonChildrens @HarvardMed use @ATUM_bio constructs. Show TGFß2 is activated by separate integrin. New opportunities for treating fibrosis pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Recent research by @MyungHyunJO1 @taekjip @XuefengWang11 @timspringerlab & @ipiproteins shows exactly how #integrins harness chemical cues and respond to physical forces. Curious how it works? Read more here 👇 proteininnovation.org/2023/03/integr…

With Richard Hynes & Erkki Ruoslahti, Springer discovered integrins, cell surface proteins that enable cells to interact with their surroundings Today, IPI is creating antibodies that can bind to integrins to accelerate #basicresearch and #drugdiscovery proteininnovation.org/2022/09/integr…
