My first-author paper describing our protocol for the zero-shot de novo design of drug-binding proteins is now available as an article in Nature! Here’s what we did and what's new from the preprint posted last year 🧵 (1/10):
We have developed a cysteine-free, highly thermostable tagging system, UTag, that enables single-mRNA translation tracking in live cells. You may wonder how different tagging systems affect translation kinetics—we addressed this by performing a systematic comparison.
