Agata Starosta @agatastarosta.bsky.social on Ribosomes translocation into the spore of Bacillus subtilis is highly organised and requires peptidoglycan rearrangements
#EMBOBacNet

Suprr demonstration by Marius what we can learn about protein complexes, here PelDEFG complex on formation of Pel polysaccharide using CryoEM

Note the determined structure vs AlphaFold, which is not predicting such complex fully correctly

Amazing structural insights!
