From #research to #application: Our DynaPore team, Scott Scholz, Elisabeth Bobkova, Markus Meier and Owen Jarman from SYBORG are competing at #HIWettbewerb start-up competition. 𝗩𝗼𝘁𝗲 for team DynaPore until Nov 7th, to support them in reaching the final: hessen-ideen.de/ideen/alumni/d…

Check out our latest research by Mohsen Naghipourfar and others in our team on building language models of coding sequence. In this preprint, we introduce cdsFM, a suite of codon-resolution language models!👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Novel enzyme starts with promiscuity. Excited to share our study that shows how #evolution recruits a single enzyme for multiple purposes, showcasing the plasticity and flexibility of #metabolism. Huge thanks to my colleagues at SYBORG & Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology! rdcu.be/dXaqU

New paper in collaboration w/The Arpaia Lab out in Nature today! Andrew Redenti, Jongwon Im and team engineer E. coli Nissle probiotic as cancer vaccines nature.com/articles/s4158… Columbia BME Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center. Congrats all!!

Our latest work on a #nitrogenase-like enzyme, the methylthio-alkane reductase which surprisingly also contains large nitrogenase metalloclusters, the P-cluster and the [Fe8S9C]- (L)-cluster is now online: doi.org/10.1101/2024.1… Have a look at the 🧵 by @AnaLagoMaciel.

We made it! 🚀 Our project "HAPPY" is a finalist for #HGP24! Our system for determining the age of yeast can replace animal testing and improve the efficiency of food and pharmaceutical production. 𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘂𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘄: hessischer-gruenderpreis.de/vote24#ig

Finally, decided to post my lecture slides online. Hoping someone will find them useful🙂  manishkushwaha.net/teaching/

This is great! NIAID News have launched a collection of public domain illustrations (currently 550 individual icons) bioart.niaid.nih.gov

Our paper: "A history-dependent integrase recorder of plant gene expression with single-cell resolution" is published in Nature Communications . Congrats Cassandra Maranas for completing this work! Earlham Institute UW Biology To read the paper: rdcu.be/dYxtF nature.com/articles/s4146…

🚨Interested in #evolution and #synbio and looking for a PhD? Then come join mine, Tiffany Taylor and Jordi Paps labs to trace and shape the evolutionary paths of engineered biology! 🛠️🧬🧪 Project details here: bpb-eu-w2.wpmucdn.com/blogs.bristol.…, apply here: swbio.ac.uk/programme/how-…

To all the cell-free people, join bluesky so I can add you to the cell-free starter pack: go.bsky.app/Cca3T8N

New paper from us and SYBORG by Luca Schulz : embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…. It's about the evolution of essentiality. This question has fascinated me for a long time: How does a component that was previously unnecessary for some function become essential for it?

Exciting times! Our latest preprint is now live 🤩! I truly believe this is one of the most significant contributions we've made. It offers fresh hypotheses about how pandemic Vibrio cholerae spreads globally. Let’s dive in!🧵..1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Lets talk about #acetyl-CoA! As central molecule in C1 metabolism, the efficiency of its assimilation determines yields. Read below about our Lcm as novel activity in the shortest O2 tolerant route to make pyruvate from acetyl-CoA while fixing #CO2! nature.com/articles/s4146…

🤩🤩Last days to apply for a #PhD in #organicchemistry to inhibit RNase E 🤩🤩 within our graduate school - Application online 📩. We wait for you at #LovelyMarburg ♥️🏰 Please RT - Thanks! stellenangebote.uni-marburg.de/jobposting/2a0…

We are looking for a postdoc - in a project on a UbiD like (de)carboxylase!

Our second paper on the bacterial toxin colibactin is now out on mBio, this time we critically evaluated the claim that colibactin toxicity necessitates cell-cell contact 🧪🦠🧵(1/9) journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

New paper from the lab: rdcu.be/d2g28. You may remember the strange fractal assemblies we discovered in citrate synthase. Well, the reason we even found that protein is that we were interested in how conserved self-assembly is in an enzyme with a very basic function.

Our latest work on Biocomputation in Bacterial Consortia is out in Nucleic Acids Res 😀. In a process we term "intercellular CRISPRi", filamentous phages transmit DNA messages from sender to receiver cells to regulate gene expression by CRISPR interference. doi.org/10.1093/nar/gk…
