    Fantastic news! Huge dedication and hard work of Jasmin and Luky led to great data on CLC exchange coupling and this fitted perfectly to cryoEM and MD simulations obtained at Stanford by Maduke, Chiu and Dror labs! Joint paper is now out Nat Commun!

    Perfect Xmas present 🎄 🎁 for Tomas - his first contribution to a paper and what's even better - it is in the Nat Commun! Collaboration with Roman Sobotka within the Photomachines project.

  • 2025/12/01:

    Great grant news - joint proposal by Ales Hnizda and Alan has been selected for support by the Czech Science Foundation (GACR)! What a continuation of their collaboration, where structural biology meets the clinic.

    New Nat Commun paper with the Haitin&Giladi labs is out! Now, with the great molecular dynamics topping from the Giacomello group. Another step towards understanding the mechanism of cis-prenyltrasferases.

    Why so quiet in the lab? A big part of peterslab has relocated to Milano 🇮🇹 for the Structural Proteomics Symposium - with 4 talks and 7 posters on the program. Total peterslab invasion. 💥

    New paper in N A R ! This project began back in 2020 through the H2020 project EPIC-XS, continued through an Instruct-Internship for Izabella, and kept evolving ever since… now finally reaching its sweet reward. A huge amount of work went into this – experiments capturing fast exchange in poorly structured proteins, and solid proof that DNA “tricks” in HDX-MS really do work. Very happy for Izabella, Dima, Paja, and of course Albane, who led the project.

    No more suffering with scripts and macros - interpreting digestion data just got much easier. Our new software DigDig is now released, and the paper is out in Anal. Chem.. To celebrate this, we adopted a DikDik antelope at Prague Zoo - small, agile, and fast, just like our mascot should be. 🐐 Great work of Dan, Zuza and Jasmin!

    We just wrapped up an intense and rewarding week at the Structural MS Workshop at BIOCEV. It was a pleasure to work with such enthusiastic participants, and we thank everyone for their energy and contributions. Special thanks go to OP JAK Photomachines and SPIDoc’s MSCA Doctoral Network for funding, to Bruker for software support, and to CIISB Instruct-CZ for access to instrumentation.

Software

You can find thecollection of software tools created in our laboratory:

  • DeutEx

    Application for evaluating of HDX/MS experiments.

    DeutEx is now licensed to Bruker and we will work together on further development.

  • DigDig

    DigDig, a standalone, Java-based software tool for evaluating and comparing proteolytic digestion across diverse experimental conditions.

    To obtain a copy of DigDig visit its dedicated webpage. You can also jump straight to the documentation.

  • LinX

    Software for interpretation of high-resolution MS data obtained after protein chemical cross-linking. The software is free to use. If you are using LinX for your research please cite the related publication.
