A study led by Associate Professor Thomas McDonnell (@McDonnellLab) shows that plasmin cleavage of β2-glycoprotein I creates a novel S-shape with stronger pathogenic antibody binding. This may help explain autoantibody development in APS: cutt.ly/irhnCO54

My third @VersusArthritis #Fellows meeting! Always enjoy catching up with everyone and we have a big UCL representation this year! Great first scientific session and now hearing about the importance of #PPI in research. Key message that we need to focus more on the ‘involvement’!
Happy to announce the launch of the McDonnell Lab Website! mcdonnelllab.com pop over and take a look at the work we do and the growing team!
