I remember the first time I heard about this effort from @RegotLab . Very excited to dive into this for two reasons - identification of orphan kinase substrates (new pathways) and development of new synbio tools for kinase signaling. Great work!.

LLMs have proven useful for increasing sequence diversity while maintaining properties and structure, such as binding of antibodies and peptides. Here @jeffruffolo and @ProfluentBio team demonstrate enzyme sequence diversification while maintaining editing functions. Nice work!.

One of the first projects we took on at @ProfluentBio was designing novel gene editing proteins with language models. This grew into an initiative called OpenCRISPR, and today I’m excited to share that work (including the sequences we designed)!.

This also builds on our prior work identifying "corrupt" or tumor-reprogrammed NK cells that promote tumor growth (similar to how macrophages have functional polarity). We show patients with these corrupt NK cells have worse outcomes - suggesting their translational potential.
