Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Post genetic revolution dynamics. How will modified and unmodified humans coexist?

Enrahonar: Quaderns de Filosofia
In this article I claim that the genetic revolution, that is, the advent of a series of highly transformative and disruptive genetic technologies, will happen in the coming years. Given the importance of this historical event, I argue that we must think

Invisible but not inaccessible—Revealing transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins with solution NMR and complementary methods

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.

A novel logarithmic spiral design for proximal interphalangeal joint arthroplasty

Scientific Reports
This study evaluated a novel implant for proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint arthroplasty that we designed according to the principles of a logarithmic spiral. The design addresses the limitations of current implants that poorly replicate natural finger
