Out now our work to accelerate the development of biocatalysts completely outside of cells! Barely using twitter, and now engaging more frequently on LinkedIn:
How can we create versatile biocatalysts for sustainable chemistry faster? We can use ML-guided design of enzymes enabled by synthetic biology. Research led by Grant Landwehr & Jon Bogart @NUSynBio @akarimlab .

Developing high-throughput biology workflows can be plagued by variability. We identify some key variables and strategies to get the most from high-throughput cell-free experiments. Check it out!.
The "test" phase of #syntheticbiology research is slow. @holly_ekas @akarimlab @LucksLab @adsilverman627 Brenda Wang @NUSynBio speed this phase up by developing validation strategies for #cellfree workflows @ACSSynBio Editor's choice.

New work from the group applying cell-free protein engineering to develop metal binding sensors. We specifically modulate dynamic range and sensitivity of the PbrR transcription factor for lead detection at the legal limit. Check it out!.
Is your water safe to drink? Point-of-use diagnostics are needed to address the growing crisis of water security. With @holly_ekas Brenda Wang @akarimlab @LucksLab @NUSynBio we engineered a cell-free biosensor to detect lead at the legal limit @ACSSynBio .

How are we going to funnel excess carbon toward sustainable products? We’ve engineered a synthetic carbon assimilation pathway (ReForm) as a bio module coupled with electro/chem methods to upgrade several C1 substrates. Work with @MichaelCJewett on BioRxiv
