Genomes encode biological complexity, which is determined by combinations of DNA mutations across millions of bases

In new work @arcinstitute.org, we report the discovery and engineering of the first programmable DNA recombinases capable of megabase-scale human genome rearrangement

I started my lab more then 4 years ago, and we have endured some very challenging times ever since.…I am very excited to share the first paper from my lab, published now in @naturemethods.bsky.social

I see; thank you for pointing it out. I read this cool paper this morning--using directed evolution on some key mutations to reduce the leakage background activity, and the final construct LATeNT has ∼36% the activity of wild-type TeNT. Very impressive work! Love it.

Tetanus on demand! (not for bioweapons, but for neuroscience research)

Tetanus toxin induces paralysis by using a protease to cleave VAMP2, a protein required for synaptic vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release.

To harness this toxicity and use it as a beneficial tool for neuroscience,

Wow, cool! Another fantastic neuroscience tool. How to reduce the toxicity of LATeNT in the dark model, and will it cause injury once activated? or in an acceptable range to induce inhibition but not paradeath?
