We recently found an unexpected deletion in the amyE-back homology arm commonly used for cloning in B. subtilis -- check out the details in our short preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Excited to share our latest work from @bioSavinov, a K99 fellow in the lab (and corresponding author!). Andrew worked w/ @SassSeabass (@keating_lab) to develop FragFold: a massively parallel computational approach to discover inhibitory protein fragments! Check out his thread:
Want to design genetically encoded inhibitors of your favorite protein? Thrilled to announce our latest work w/ @SassSeabass, @keating_lab, & @GeneWeiLiLab, where we leverage massively parallel AlphaFold predictions to discover peptide inhibitors. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/n)
We are happy to share our latest work revealing that pseudouridine is found in bacterial mRNA! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. A short thread: (1/n)
We are delighted to share a new method for live-cell transcriptome recording: Molecular Time Capsules! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We envision MTCs will help reveal the origins of phenotypic heterogeneity, and facilitate the study of transcriptomes in hard-to-access locations. (1/n)
@hualiang2018 @YaleMicroPath @YaleWestCampus Congrats!!
Congrats to Li lab graduate student Manraj Gill on receiving an MIT School of Science DEI Service Fellowship for his deep engagement in the mentorship of underrepresented students both within @MIT and in the broader community! @MITBiology @ScienceMIT
What do the #epigenome and #Grogu have in common? Answer: the Force is strong in both of them. In our latest review (in press) with @dpmelters @NCIYaminiDalal, we discuss how mechanical forces shape chromatin structure, leading to biological functions. osf.io/s2h9j/
Congrats, Itai!
I'm happy to share our work on computer-aided synthesis planning of hybrid enzymatic/synthetic reaction pathways with @Geneticdesigner and @cwcoley! nature.com/articles/s4146…
Beautiful structure and mechanism by @ch_hu1 and @AilongK lab!
Caspases control programmed cell death in eukaryotes. Type III-E CRISPR harbors caspase-like proteases. Our new Science paper explains how Craspase switches on protease activity in RNA-guided fashion - safe alternatives to Cas nucleases in therapeutics. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Way to go @aaronjoinerphd!! Awesome accomplishment by an awesome dude.

IscB-ωRNA is as active as Cas9 in test tube, but only a fraction in size. Want to learn about their similarity and differences in high-res? What might be holding its activity back in human cells? Further miniaturization? Check out our new publication. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Awesome and thought-provoking work by Lydia et al!
Check out our, @GeneWeiLiLab @julianstanley_, new paper showing that a large fraction of RNA molecules in bacteria are fragments of canonical full-length mRNAs with consequences for differential RNA-seq analysis: doi.org/10.1093/nar/gk…
Great feature on innovative research from the Ailong Ke lab! research.cornell.edu/news-features/…
The work of a great scientist and one of my best friends, @vera_rinaldi 🥳 It was always fun to make wild conjectures together as to what could be going on here! Congratulations!
