Stable cell reprogramming in plants demonstrated in new study using synthetic memory circuits.
In our new study in @NatureBiotech we describe a toolkit of synthetic gene circuits for stable cell reprogramming in plants. We hope this platform will provide useful new tools to the community for engineering plant form and function with greater precision nature.com/articles/s41587-0…
Colabfold paper is out! Congrats to everyone involved for this important work. A great step forward for modern bioinformatics.

Special thanks to @thesteinegger and @milot_mirdita (for MMseqs2) without whom I would have never considered to preprint let alone attempt to publish our notebook! (1/3)
Exciting to visit @ModularFarmsAU for possible collaboration in Australia. Amazing technology and perfect alignment with HELICO's vision #collaboration #australia #biotech
A fascinating new study regarding protein folding suggests a dependence between codon identity and backbone torsion of the translated amino acid

Congratulations to Astrix Astronautics on their successful launch of an inflatable solar array, great to see the prototype move from the lab next door into low earth orbit!
COPIA has spread its wings!🛰️
This hardware from Astrix Astronautics was a hosted payload on the Kick Stage for #ThereAndBackAgain.
The inflatable solar arrays successfully unfurled, demonstrating a key step in scalable and affordable power generation in space.
Research Scientist position available at Helico as we take on an exciting new project

Helico’s vision is to replace pharmaceutical factories with ‘pharming’ – growing high-value therapeutic compounds via low-tech agriculture. It’s first target? Insulin. bit.ly/31U4fqJ

Very exciting times for biology, multi-chain protein complexes are responsible for the most important mechanisms in cells and yet are the least understood due to their complexity. Hats off to @DeepMind for these prompt updates!

The #AlphaFold source code has been updated and now accounts for multi-chain protein complexes - providing a significant improvement in accuracy for predicting protein interactions: dpmd.ai/af-multimer-os

After a longitudinal analysis of vaccine responses in #SARSCoV2 naïve and recovered people, researchers report increases in memory B cells. This may contribute to rapid responses that limit initial viral replication in the host, preventing severe disease. fcld.ly/jakmeld
Very nice of you @DeepMind, will be nice to put this into practice with some lab automation.
We’ve acquired the MuJoCo physics simulator (mujoco.org) and are making it free for all, to support research everywhere. MuJoCo is a fast, powerful, easy-to-use, and soon to be open-source simulation tool, designed for robotics research: dpmd.ai/mujoco-blog

@helicobio has the ambition of taking on the oligopoly of drug manufacturers - by harnessing plants as bio-factories for pharmaceutical compounds.
