We demonstrated how to make and dissolve #RNA #condensates through strand displacement using synthetic genes - excited to see this new paper out in @narjournal.bsky.social Collab w/ the Andersen group @esandersen.bsky.social academic.oup.com/nar/article/...

Hey #RNA world, we are excited to share our RNA design engine #pyFuRNAce - an integrated tool for RNA origami experts and novices alike. Kudos to @monari-luca.bsky.social @floppleton.bsky.social et al! Preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Try it out at pyfurnace.de Feedback welcome!

The Goepfrich lab @kgoepfrich.bsky.social yesterday published the creation of cytoskeleton-like structures with different properties inside lipid vesicles using RNA origami: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The Cryo-EM: the next 50 years Symposium held yesterday at @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social was a smashing success!!

Abstract submission for FNANO is now open! They’re due Feb 1! Join us at molecular programming’s annual celebration of design, interfaces and applications (and also skiing) 🧬 www.fnano.org

We discovered 3 RNA families that form homo-oligomeric RNA-only complexes! Studying nature continues to expand my wildest imagination. Read about it: doi.org/10.1101/2024... Vivian Wu, Svetlana Shabalina, Hyunbin Lee, Grace Nye, Eugene Koonin, Alex Gao, Rhiju Das, Wah Chiu

Amazing molecular animations with engaging soundscape!

Last year we met with about 60 scientists for 2 weeks to discuss what it means to synthesize life. Here is the summary of our discussion: https://chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv/article-details/668b9aaf01103d79c55e9fab We hope it represents diverse views and serves as a roadmap towards...

Nice write up of the RNA revolution laskerfoundation.org/rnas-extreme...

Here is a starter pack for CryoEM/ET enthousiasts To be completed go.bsky.app/JmQksC

To accelerate the X-odus, I created a DNA & RNA nanotech starter pack :) Comment if you want to be added! go.bsky.app/7LUeJ61
