This is Cowley Road, which should be the bustling heart of East Oxford. Instead, it's extremely quiet with businesses either closed or closing early. This street is home to one of the largest concentrations of independent businesses in the UK. Horribly sad to see.

DELIGHTED that this is finally in print 🙌 Here, we study HMPV nucleoprotein structures and how they bind to the phosphoprotein - the essential cofactor of the viral polymerase. HUGE thanks to our great collaborators, and to the legendary @MaxxRenner nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Excited to share that the first paper from the Isom lab is now available on Biorxiv! (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…). We have investigated YhdP at the molecular level to show that it forms an envelope-spanning bridge and that putative phospholipids are found inside this bridge!
