Now out in PNAS! Learn what it takes to design stable αββα miniproteins from @gimtaeeun and @KotaroTsuboyama! One update: we learned our original NMR structure was actually a symmetric dimer! We also solved a second NMR structure of a monomer. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.21…
We (@gimtaeeun, @KotaroTsuboyama) wrote a preprint! To improve de novo protein design, we investigated a specific miniprotein fold that was previously very challenging to design (fig from Rocklin 2017):

Can proteins perform neural network computation? Together with James Linton, @RonZhu2015, and @ElowitzLab, we had a lot of fun creating the "perceptein" -- a protein circuit that performs winner-take-all neural network computation in mammalian cells: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… (1/4)

Just had an awful experience in a rest area near Augusta, ME. The guy insisted we can’t practice our first amendment, prepare to pray. They also refused to give us written policy and would only say what we do is unsanitary ⁦@MuslimAdvocates⁩ ⁦⁦@JanetMillsforME⁩

Where are allosteric hotspots located in a protein? What properties differentiate such hotspots from other residues? We combine deep mutational scanning of four homologs with machine learning to reveal molecular rules governing allosteric hotspots. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
