The second generation human disorderome
Delighted to finally release the second generation human disorderome. Together with Davey lab we describe an optimized phage library that allows the screening of ~1,000,000 overlapping peptides in a single binding assay, PepTools for annotations of peptide hits and over 2,000 SLiM-based interactions.

COVID-19 apart, March has been a fabulous month. Congrats to Susanne Luchow and Caroline Benz for their fabulous 50% PhD seminars. Awesom that we still have two years to do science together!
August 2019
Happy with the successful Tiselius 2019 symposium (https://tiseliussymposium.org/). Many thanks to all speakers and participants!
Welcoming Dr. Andreas Lange (visting postdoc with EMBO short-term fellowship) and Dr. Ahmed Sayadi (researcher) to the group.

Celebrating Gustav’s masterpiece (http://msb.embopress.org/content/14/8/e8129.long) with cake (and some bubbles).
Welcome to the “new home” of the lab!
The lab has passed the first critical start-up years and is now going into the next phase with fresh funding and new people. What can be more fitting than celebrating this with a new webpage?! The next years we will continue charting human protein-protein interactions that rely on short linear motifs. We will also take on the challenge of exploring host-pathogen protein-protein interactions on large scale. The adventure continues!
