New-found immune cells called ‘ruptoblasts’ explode when triggered, ejecting toxic chemicals capable of delivering death to surrounding cells in just minutes. The cells’ discoverers say that this process, which they call ruptosis, seems to be a new form of cell death.

I have now co-authored papers with four different Nobel laureates😎. First as a PhD student, then as a post-doctoral fellow, and most recently, as a collaborator! All credit to these👇superstars in our lab @IITKanpur for making the latest one possible! I am so proud of you all!

[tommaso patriarchi @tpatriarchi]

Absolutely stunning work: de novo designed miniproteins targeting GPCRs as potent agonists and antagonists.

This opens countless possibilities for programmable signaling, cleaner therapeutics, and faster drug discovery.

Protein design is coming for pharmacology. 🚀

[Arun K. Shukla @arshukla]

Congratulations to all involved including our very own Sudha Mishra, Annu Dalal, Shachie Sinha, Manisankar Ganguly, and Ramanuj Banerjee! It is currently posted online as an accelerated article preview! Stay tuned for a more elaborate thread when the final version is published.

[Arun K. Shukla @arshukla]

Delighted to share this amazing collaborative study involving our laboratory @IITKanpur now published in @Nature! This was spearheaded by David Baker's lab @UWproteindesign with contributions from several labs across the globe!
