We invented “triplet tumbling microscopy” (TTM) to track protein-protein interactions in living cells! Tag your protein with GFP and see it interact with *untagged* binding partners www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

MagLOV 2 plasmid is (finally!) available on Addgene 🎉🧲🧫 Any GFP capable imaging setup + benchtop power supply + off the shelf electromagnet is all you need to get started - let us know if you need help of course. www.addgene.org/252303/ @andrewgyork.bsky.social @mariaingaramo.bsky.social 🧪

Meet MagLuc: a magnetically-controlled luminescent protein. This is a foundational tool for remote control of biological processes, also known as "magnetogenetics". Can you tell when the magnetic field turns on and off? From @mariaingaramo.bsky.social and the team at @nonfictionlabs.bsky.social

Amazing work by Harrison and Gabi. They showed that MagLov proteins respond to radio frequencies, paving the way to precise magnetic field control of biology!

I'll be telling stories about science tonight in San Francisco. Come through! partiful.com/e/ldwWPLR2fO... The real draw is the crew hosting me, though. The local biotech hacker/maker/entrepreneur scene is PACKED with brilliant, inspiring folks. No slides, just stories.

For this #FluorescenceFriday I thought I'd repost my favorite blog post this year: MagLOV - magnetic control of a fluorescent protein! And now @mariaingaramo.bsky.social and @andrewgyork.bsky.social are here! Give them a follow and find out what cool things are next. blog.addgene.org/magnetic-con...
