Pleased to share the great work of @Ari1saacs Yu Shang Low @cusycon and the team. We used our next generation clamp tech and @CMMUQ1 CRYOARM300 to reveal novel F structures for the divergent Langya and Mojiang Henipaviruses.

We demonstrate a chimeric approach to safely solve pathogenic flaviviruses by #cryoEM, revealing conserved pocket factors across diverse viruses. Beautiful work led by @joshuamhardy at @CoulibalyLab @MonashUni and @NataleeNewton at @UQ_SCMB @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
