Excited to share our new paper and lipid- and protein-directed photocatalytic labeling method (POCA) just out in @natchembio.nature.com. tinyurl.com/2kcxuvvv. Big congrats to first author Andrew Becker and the whole team for launching our lab into the wild world of singlet oxygen interactomics.

Can we design mutations that bias proteins towards desired conformational states?

Today in @science.org, we introduce Conformational Biasing (CB), a simple and scalable computational method that uses contrastive scoring by inverse folding models to identify conformation-biasing mutations.

We heat up the ADC at the inlet of the mass spectrometer, separate the isoforms within the instrument and analyze each isoform in one run. This is one step away from the commonly used methods that probe only the bulk stability and gives direct insights into each specific drug-load species.

ADCs are heterogeneous drug products. They are antibodies linked with varying amounts of drugs. Their stabilities are often assessed at the bulk level, completely ignoring the fact that the individual drug linked species have different properties! That’s where vT-ESI-MS can help.

Ever wondered how stable your ADCs are and how their stability is influenced by their drug-load?

Variable-temperature electrospray ionization can help with that!

Some sections have been claimed already and I can only include a limited number of authors.

Deadline for the submission is July 1st, so we have to move fast.

Wow, the set DID come with other options, I completely missed that. Just thought they had - for some weird reason - included multiples of the same label.

That’s a good point! I just checked and mine is the MultiOmics edition. It came with some replacement labels (total of 3 labels), need to check them when I am at home. Will update you when I get home and am able to check 😊

I was missing 2 parts at the top, or I thought I was - do you also have a little gap at the top between the gray and black panels? I had used the parts from the source to make that edge even at the top but that looked bad. β€œFixedβ€œ the source after taking the picture because it started to bother me πŸ˜…
