Can CRISPR edits enable precise tuning of plant gene expression? We think: yes.
In our newest manuscript, we measured the effects of >30,000 CRISPR-like promoter mutations in sorghum protoplasts.

We have traced the evo of species by comparing their proteins. We use models that assign a %similarity between seqs and confidently infer that 2 proteins are homologous if share ≥25% SeqSim. But what happens when it’s less than this?
Evolution of S-RNase genes and their syntenic relationships in angiosperms, findings on the lineage-specific transpositions and the implications of the gamma triplication event are particularly intriguing

AlphaFold2 and RoseTTAFold are limited to predicting the 3D structure of proteins. A new all-atom method models complete biomolecular assemblies, including proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules, metals, and covalent modifications. #NBThighlight https://t.co/a9relIlKLC
The endosperm's life span as a crucial but transient seed tissue is controlled by programmed cell death processes.
If you want to know more about how, when and why the endosperm bites the dust - see our latest review by

This Review discusses the latest computational approaches, including machine-learning-based methods and integrative structure-modelling frameworks, for studying 3D genome organization
Friends don't let friends forget to reorder stacked bar plots. Stacked bar plots are commonly used in research (e.g., to visualize admixture analysis). It can get messy! After reordering the bars, wow, it really made a difference, don't you think?
