More than 700 designs by 90 amazing protein designers were submitted to our protein design competition! Given this awesome turnout we've decided to increase the number of proteins to be tested in the lab to 200 in order to validate more designs Check out foundry.adaptyvbio.com/egfr_design_co…

Today, I would like to honor the memory of Roger Y. Tsien, who died on August 24, 2016. His legacy lives with all who use his technologies, including calcium sensors, fluorescent proteins, the acetoxymethyl (AM) ester, & many more! #FluorescenceFriday nature.com/articles/nmeth…

In our latest article, we chat to Dr Melissa Salmon, who's working with Nicola J Patron 👩🏾‍🔬🌱⚙️ and Daria Golubova to map out the steps needed for plants to make medicinal bioactives, along with understanding the genes involved in regulating production. okt.to/evo3Ds

🧬 Protein Design Competition Update 🧬 DNA synthesis for all 200 designs has been completed and our liquid handlers are now working hard preparing all protein expressions and assay runs! ETA for results: Wednesday, September 18 Follow all updates here: foundry.adaptyvbio.com/egfr_design_co…

We are pleased to announce the release of The Protein Design Archive. Our comprehensive database of designed proteins highlights the triumphs and challenges of the field: pragmaticproteindesign.bio.ed.ac.uk/pda/ Preprint:biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Michael Stam Marta Chronowska WoolfsonLab #proteindesign
