I'm backer #4 of 'Participatory research to explore fungal biodiversity and its importance to bees'. The @hackuarium team needs your support for this worthy project. @lets_experiment experiment.com/projects/part…

Participatory research to explore fungal biodiversity and its...

Of the millions of fungal species, less than 150,000 are known. At our community lab, Hackuarium, we have already used DNA sequencing analyses in several projects (eg. BeerDeCoded, OpenFoodRepo DNA)...

We made #AlphaFold dream of new protein assemblies, used #ProteinMPNN to bring it back to reality, and the results were stunning! (1/5) science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Hallucinating symmetric protein assemblies

A network-based protein design enables the generation of cyclic homo-oligomers across the nanoscopic scale.

Replying to @DrewEndy @iGEM
Super pleased that the Open Yeast Collection will be included in the 2022 iGEM distribution. @iGEM teams around the world can compete to engineer yeast - Pichia pastoris or S. cerevisiae - using this OSN designed free and open source collection. #FreeGenes #OpenMTA

You told us what useful DNA sequences should be developed for an open biotechnology commons and... we made them for you! Better yet, all our materials are available under the Unilateral OpenMTA so everyone can develop applications that benefit all people and the planet.

A Twitter hive mind question for protein engineers: I’m looking for examples of proteins that don’t tolerate tags (epitope, FP, degron etc.) at N- or C-termini. If you know of good examples, let’s hear them! RT’s appreciated.
