Experimental verification is increasingly the bottleneck in protein design projects.

In this paper, we develop a new mini-binder screening pipeline based on the microfluidic sizing technique called flow-induced dispersion analysis (FIDA).

Screening de novo designed protein binders in unpurified lysate using flow induced dispersion analysis

Computational protein design can create binders against targets of interest, but identifying binders with sufficient affinity still requires biochemical screening of many designs. In this work, we te....

Sharing once again - and highly recommending - the postdoc positions with Antoni. One of the projects is a collaboration with us and the postdoc will include a sojourn in our lab.

Dear colleagues, positions at CNRS (and INRIA) will (in all probability) be announced this winter. By then it will however be too late to properly prepare an application. Recent PhDs, postdocs etc interested in such positions should get right now in contact with teams who would like to recruit them.

SUMOylation studies just got a serious upgrade! Fresh out of the lab- our team including our brilliant chemist PostDoc just published a clean, streamlined way to purify SUMO E2 and SUMO RANGAP. Whether one is into structural biology or biochemical wizardry, this toolkit is your new best friend.

Rosalind Franklin was born #OTD in 1920. She was a chemist and crystallographic who made a key contribution to the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA: www.compoundchem.com/2017/07/25/f...

$Today in Chemistry History graphic on Rosalind Franklin and the structure of DNA. Rosalind Franklin was a chemist and X-ray crystallographer whose work was instrumental in the discovery of the structure of DNA. She missed out on a Nobel Prize for her work as they are not awarded posthumously. Photograph 51 is an X-ray diffraction image of DNA taken during Franklin’s research. It was crucial in developing a model of DNA and confirming its double helical structure.$
