PANCS-spec-Binders: A system for rapidly discovering isoform- or epitope-specific binders Proteins that bind to a target protein of interest, termed "binders," are essential components of biological research reagents and therapeutics. Target proteins present multiple binding surfaces with ...

Check out our newest work! This is a story on how to get selectivity in binders - both isoform and site selectivity. Read the paper or enjoy this brief Skytorial of what we did!

How do cells adapt morphology to function? In a πŸ”₯ preprint by @zjmaggiexu.bsky.social , with @dudinlab.bsky.social and @amyweeks.bsky.social , we identify a self-organizing single-cell morphology circuit that optimizes the feeding trap structure of the suctorian P. collini. 🧡 tinyurl.com/4k8nv926

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
