View #CDLab on Twitter Latest #CDlab paper online: https://t.co/3PYsA5wjWg For those interested in the topology of SMC‐driven DNA loop extrusion! Much credits to first authors @RomanBarth2
and @BisLightyear https://t.co/c2UmbHeneU



Looping the Genome with SMC Complexes Here’s an extensive #CDlab review that @eugene_kim__ @RomanBarth2 & me wrote for Annual Review of Biochemistry about the roles of SMCs in chromosome biology and new insights from in vitro single-molecule studies: https://t.co/5bHsuInIrE https://t.co/fl2mGyZr0L



Simultaneously, we publish another interesting #CDLab paper today!
This is a biophysics study of the very weird and topologically intriguing ‘olympic-rings-entangled’ DNA from pathogens, in a collaboration led by @Dmichiel1: https://t.co/UEwHnWxZEw https://t.co/5eYfez198E

Here’s a blog by #CDlab PhD student Sabrina Meindlhumer about the Min proteins that form cool Turing patterns that assist in cell division: https://t.co/MX9YNTi2aA
Latest #CDlab paper in @FrontMicrobiol!
“MukBEF-dependent chromosomal organization in widened Escherichia coli” Here, 1st authors @AleksandreJapa & @RamanvanWee et al used cell-widening to visualize bacterial chromosomes and MukBEF therein. Have a read! https://t.co/4vJAYrHGe6 https://t.co/HnFzYBYYsR



Poster time at #BPS2023!
Here’s #CDlab student @RomanBarth2 explaining the science on his (literally) great poster https://t.co/m5O1wRJSRC



Latest @biorxivpreprint: Microwell-enhanced optical detection of single bacteria https://t.co/y1yf3el481 Here, Farbod Alijani’s lab (collaborating with our #CDlab) shows how to measure motility of single bacteria (=> antibiotics test!!) with a laser reflected from a Si microwell https://t.co/y76MJQZQ8b



Multiple open postdoc positions available at @cees_dekker #CDlab (@TNW_BN in Delft). To work on nanopores and single-molecule studies. More info on vacancies 👇 https://t.co/okcGddm3e2
Very happy to see our new preprint finally out! Congrats to Nils K. and @anders_barth from #CDlab, who designed biomimetic optical nanopores with selective properties – one of the best nuclear pore mimics out there today! 👏🤩 https://t.co/ep9mePeXCL
Latest #CDlab paper on @biorxivpreprint: Diameter Dependence of Transport through Nuclear Pore Complex Mimics Studied Using Optical Nanopores https://t.co/PPzRddyxHJ Great work by 1st authors Nils Klughammer & @anders_barth – an example of persistence and rigor to do this 1/3 https://t.co/xQyeMWpAux



Latest #CDlab paper on @biorxivpreprint: https://t.co/Mx7mKjKANY Here, 1st author @TismaMilos imaged single chromosomes in widened Bacillus bacteria, resolving its intrinsic crescent shape and how ParB and BsSMC proteins localise on it! Great collaboration with @Gruber_Lausanne https://t.co/KwGQJzX4W6



Congrats to postdoc @ChenyuWen_Nano who got @NanoLetters to use his handpainted image of the NEOtrap2.0 as the cover for illustrating his great scientific work https://t.co/Aczn8Il7Uz Research of our #CDlab together with @sciSonja lab. https://t.co/Nf58rShR3S
Here’s a ‘have a peek behind the paper’ blog by #CDlab PhD student Sabrina Meindlhumer about her latest paper on Min patterns in @NatureComms (https://t.co/jeHLOOrg6V): https://t.co/MX9YNTi2aA
Proud to see this tweet of PhD student @TismaMilos of our #CDlab – amplifying the great added value of teamwork in science https://t.co/Ur0y9fCJBX
Latest #CDlab paper in @NatureComms! https://t.co/jeHLOOrg6V Here, Sabrina Meindlhumer shows control of Min protein patterns by a hydrodynamic flow: patterns moving with òr against the bulk flow direction – consistent with modeling by Fridtjof Brauns, Rudi Finžgar @PhysOfLifeLMU https://t.co/TprFEbfLV8



.@Nature’s pick of 7 technologies to watch in 2023: https://t.co/ob7yO7ZVRY Number 1 on the list: Single-molecule protein sequencing! Highlighting recent work by @Edward_marcotte, @MellerLab, and our #CDlab
Latest #CDlab paper out now in @TrendsMicrobiol:
A review of the status quo of the exciting Cdv cell-division machinery in archaea (the archaeal variant of the eukaryotic ESCRT), written by PhD student @abejota94 and myself: https://t.co/MoZ3oQIx0L https://t.co/cmeMLWQR4I
