This is a great paper from the @hsalis lab.
- Measure the decay rates of 50,000 mRNAs in bacteria.
- Use biophysical models + ML to build models of mRNA stability.
- Profit.

And a good reminder of what's possible when one turns a biological problem into a sequencing problem!

I am pleased to announce our latest publication ‘Predicting synthetic mRNA stability using massively parallel kinetic measurements, biophysical modeling, and machine learning’ in @NatureComms

[Daniel Cetnar @DanielCetnar]

A big thank you to @bioalgorithmist , @grace_vezeau , and @hsalis for making this work possible!

[Daniel Cetnar @DanielCetnar]

The developed model quantifies the key interactions that collectively control mRNA stability in bacterial operons and predicts how changing mRNA sequence alters mRNA stability, which is important when studying and engineering bacterial genetic systems.

NEW PAPER led by @grace_vezeau! We rationally engineered synthetic riboswitches to carry out sense & respond for human biomarker proteins [mCRP and IL32-gamma] that indicate disease or infection. 16-fold activation without trial-and-error!

See our recent work at the @hsalis #synbio lab. DNA sequence in --> transcription profile out. Validated on 17396 sig70 promoters. Use it to identify cryptic promoters in genetic systems or to forward engineering synthetic promoters. Work done by myself and @bioalgorithmist!

Congratulations to Penn State chemistry's newest graduate, Dr. Joshua Kauffman! Josh, who is a member of the Sen group (@ayusmansen), recently defended his thesis.

@alexcampreis Thanks @alexcampreis! Excited to soon join you in Boston!

NEW PAPER: We uncover & quantify how the 5' UTR, intergenic, and 3' UTR regions control mRNA decay + develop predictive biophysical models. Big 👏🙇 to @DanielCetnar who characterized 82+ operons using RT-qPCR to show clear cause-effect outcomes.
