I got hit by some rather sudden and extreme financial hardship so if anyone is in need of remote wetlab contract research, strictly BSL1, do let me know. Currently scrambling for gigs. Plant, Bacterial, Archaeal Bioeng Custom Lab Hardware Turn Key Genetic Design Please RT 💚

We're excited to share another work from our lab this week. We present ENTRAP-seq, the first massively parallel reporter assay to characterize protein-coding libraries in plants. Congrats to Simon, Lucas, and all other co-authors. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Do you work with recombinases?🛠️🧬In the latest from my lab, Veronica Greco shows how Oxford Nanopore sequencing paired with automated liquid handling provides the perfect platform for characterising these systems at scale! #synbio doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

Latest work from the lab led by Yu-Hung Hung in The Plant Journal! We engineered a RNA-binding protein to sort and protect a Cas9 transcript for long term expression! Can be applied to any engineered transcript as a UTR: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/tp…

New print: Start right to end right: authentic open reading frame selection matters biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Read a full thread about it here: bsky.app/profile/jamesp…

Check out our new preprint! We examined sources of variability of transgene expression in N. benthamiana agroinfiltration and ways to minimize it. Graduate student Sophia Tang observed FP expression in >1,800 plants over the course of nearly 3 years! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our latest paper is out in its final form in The Plant Cell We show that in plants the same DNA sequence can act as an insulator or silencer depending on the surrounding regulatory context. Read the full paper at: doi.org/10.1093/plcell…
