We’re excited to share our preprint where we show, for the first time, the atomically accurate design of VHH antibodies!

🤔Been pondering, is Idea the the most important thing for a startup success? Or do you think its:

[Avadhoot @Avidhoot]

📚✨ Absolutely captivating! This exhilarating idea is a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration to embark on building creative thought experiments.#proteindesign

[Niko McCarty. @NikoMcCarty]

We can design proteins on a computer that have wonderful new functions. But it's too expensive to make and test them in the real world.

My latest blog is about a protein printer that turns digital bits into physical molecules, using flashes of light.

This essay is a thought experiment; it's speculative. But we hope it spurs conversation about how we might accelerate protein design.

I hope you'll give it a read and send me your thoughts. This article was co-written by @julian_englert.

Thanks to everyone who gave comments and feedback, including @erika_alden_d and @yestello.

This is crazy!!!
Imagine if we could harness the effector functions of these antibodies regardless of their specificities, for therapeutic benefits.
Well, that’s exactly my thesis project!
Hoping to save these millions of dollars with my study. Stay tuned:) #immuneengineering

[Prof. Nikolai Slavov @slavov_n]

In 2015, an article in @nature estimated that 800,000,000 USD is wasted annually on nonspecific antibodies.

It also suggested standardization, which has not happened. I wonder how much we will spend in 2023 on low specificity antibodies.

🌯 BIOLOGY IS A BURRITO 🌯

Cells are crowded and very fast places. It's a miracle that anything works at all.

The central dogma is often depicted as DNA -> RNA -> proteins, but it's so much more: A biophysical marvel inside the smallest of vessels. 💓

This is wonderful indeed !
Many congratulations to Prof Dhar and Prof Ganesh. @IISERPune

In 2021, many claimed that vaccines will stop the virus. But today, it feels like the COVID-19 will continue to be a never ending battle. Just when we think we’re making progress, a new variant emerges or cases start to rise again. #needfornoveltherapies

[Avadhoot @Avidhoot]

Amazing read!

[Niko McCarty. @NikoMcCarty]

This was a breakthrough year for biology. 🧬

As 2022 ends, let's celebrate the big achievements, from malaria vaccines to phage therapies and synthetic embryos.

Here are the highlights...

Very interestingly explained!

[Niko McCarty. @NikoMcCarty]

RNA polymerase transcribes DNA at a rate of 22 nucleotides per second.

Its error rate is 1 in 10 million.

The Harry Potter books, together, have 1 million words. Average word has ~4.7 characters.

RNA polymerase could copy all of Harry Potter with no typos in 78 hours.

Is American way of living so purposeful or productivity-focused, that its hard to find a friend for a night walk? Or is it just lonely in general……
