Congratulations Stephen Wallace on your European Research Council (ERC) 2024 Consolidator Grant! The €2M #ERCCoG grant for the MICROCHEMIST project will help to accelerate the transition towards the environmentally-friendly production of chemicals ➡️edin.ac/41cgbR9

🙌🧬 Incredibly proud of the Wells Wood lab's results in round 2 of the Adaptyv Bio protein design competition! All of our designs expressed and one of them bound to EGFR.😀🎉 Check out the list below for the different models and software that we used to do this. 👇 (1/4)

I'm looking for candidates for an EastBio DTP studentship in my lab. If you are enthusiastic about cellular circadian rhythms, have a look and get in touch! findaphd.com/phds/project/e…

Diego Oyarzun is next at #NGSB24 who is going deep into how we train AI models from biological datasets and revealing some fascinating limitations and ways around them. Really great talk.

🎇 We're kicking 2025 off with a Protein Design Archive update, adding structures such as miniaturized electron-transfer proteins, small molecule and protein binders, beta barrels and hairpins, oligomers, and more! Check out all of them at pragmaticproteindesign.bio.ed.ac.uk/pda/ Christopher W. Wood

The January update for the Protein Design Archive is now live! Take a look at Marta Chronowska's post to see some of the interesting designs that have been added this month.

Another publication in collaboration with Tom Oliver's group in Bristol Chemistry We harness de novo α-helical barrels as "molecular flasks" to bind and orient small molecules in aqueous solution. Using FRET and photodimerization, we showcase the potential for templating new chemistry

There was a Nobel Prize awarded for protein structure prediction and design, but there's still no protein emoji. Come on The Unicode Consortium, how is ginger 🫚 or a clamp 🗜️more important than the class biomolecule that does (more or less) all the biochemical work in every living thing!?👎

A new resource for protein design: the Protein Design Archive Protein designers have long aimed to explore the vast possibilities beyond nature’s existing structures, seeking to learn how amino acid sequences fold and function in ways that evolution never tested. Chronowska et

That's the April update for the Protein Design Archive available and beyond the new structures, Marta Chronowska has added a feature that adds search parameters to the URL, so you can share your search e.g. all Bill DeGrado designs before 2010: pragmaticproteindesign.bio.ed.ac.uk/pda?deposition…

Designing proteins from scratch opens exciting new possibilities for solving global challenges in health and sustainability. That is why we are funding an ambitious new Center for Protein Design at Københavns Uni. Led by Professor Dek Woolfson, world-renowned in this field,
