We made the cover of @cellsystems! Elementary landscapes for two fitness functions reveal that combining them creates a more rugged landscape. This highlights the demand on a DNA-binding domain to evolve affinity for distinct half-sites @Jackson_Lab tinyurl.com/yc2web9a
Happy to share that our latest paper led by @chrfrohlich and @AdrianBunzel is out @NatureCatalysis. If you like protein evolution and epistasis, this paper will give you interesting insights; Shifting the rate-limiting step can cause strong epistasis. nature.com/articles/s4192…
Happy to share the preprint of my first research paper from grad school on how the epigenetic silencer PRC2 is inhibited by histone modifications found at actively transcribed genes - check out the thread for more details!

It was a real adventure working on this over the last few years, I'm really happy for it to be out. There's so much we can do now from measuring/engineering CO2/O2 specificity, catalytic rate or even plant rubiscos!
What limits rubisco function? Is it the chemical mechanism? Evolution? In an updated pre-print @prywes et. al explore this question by assaying >99% of single amino acid mutants in Form II rubisco (1/7)
@Little_Machines @kimreynolds_lab We haven’t diy’ed them - it would be really nice to have multiple chambers tho to do growths in parallel
@Little_Machines @kimreynolds_lab pioreactor.com we’ve played with this a bit @protostasis was fiddling for awhile with them - they are a low cost way to begin to see if it makes sense
Physical protein interactions constrain interface sequence. But what about non-binding "biochemical" interactions in metabolism? We used deep mutational scanning to map sequence constraints for two enzymes that catalyze consecutive metabolic reactions: rdcu.be/dE7xl
A new kind of @ASAPbio_ ? 🤔 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/50807
We made the cover of @cellsystems! Elementary landscapes for two fitness functions reveal that combining them creates a more rugged landscape. This highlights the demand on a DNA-binding domain to evolve affinity for distinct half-sites @Jackson_Lab tinyurl.com/yc2web9a
Epic thread by @MoezDawood but this has been a long time in the works with @ee_reh_neh (and many others)! tldr There are massive disparities in genomic medicine for non-European ancestry groups. Unbiased saturation mutagenesis can potentially eliminate classification disparities!
Excited to announce our preprint using MAVEs to reduce variant classification disparities in underrepresented populations and demonstrating AI bias in computational predictors for variant classification! (medrxiv.org/content/10.110…) Tweetorial below! (1/25)
How do we interpret molecular mechanisms of protein allostery from deep mut scan experiments? We have built a generalized thermodynamic model to infer and predict how mutations impact inter-and-intradomain allostery. Great collab with Qiang Cui BU @eLife doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…
Spring 🌸 (and labor) is finally in the air! Get together, enjoy the spring weather, and socialize with labor movement folks from across the East Bay at our picnic on 4/28 from 3-6 at Snow Park! We’ll also hear a report back from the Labor Notes Conference in Chicago
Go ahead and read our new microtubule pre-print available on @biorxivpreprint! Congratulations to @Juanmabertoldi1 and everyone who was parte of this study. 🧵available in Juan's post.
Happy to announce that my most recent PhD work from the @NogalesLab @UCBerkeley is out on @biorxivpreprint! We teamed up with @Yildiz_Lab to explore how HURP and Kif18A work together to make sure chromosomes are properly aligned during cell division.🧵⬇️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
@Little_Machines Love the lab. Share the science. Hard to explain to people who haven't worked in a lab the rush of encountering a finding/result that is known to no one else - ever. Good luck!
@Little_Machines Apropos of nothing, I followed because your original post tickled my funny bone for some reason. Could be because I legit get to say "There is trouble down at the lab" at least once a month! Congrats on your new laboratory!
@Little_Machines I’ll repost when you make the announcement
@Little_Machines I have no idea what that is, but I do enjoy biochemistry so I’m here for whatever it is you do. 😀👍🧬🧪🥼🔬
Experiment. Educate non-specialists as well as specialists. Repeat.
Thank you all!! Update- I have more than like zero followers now!!
