AI Guided Protein Design for Next‐Generation Autogenic Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Autogenic engineered living materials (ELMs) integrate biology and materials science to create self‐regenerating and self‐healing materials. This perspective highlights emerging strategies in protein engineering and AI‐guided de novo design to expand the capabilities of autogenic ELMs.

The Isolated Thumb Domain of Acid‐Sensing Ion Channels Forms a Minimal Folding Unit Enabling Ligand Binding Studies

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An independently folded thumb domain from acid‐sensing ion channels (ASICs) preserves ligand‐binding and proton‐sensing properties. NMR‐based interaction and pKa analyses uncover how endogenous and exogenous peptides modulate ASICs, providing a simplified model for rational drug discovery targeting proton‐gated ion channels.

Zebrafish and CRISPR—A synergistic approach to decipher and cure human diseases

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Zebrafish, with high genetic homology to humans, serves as a powerful vertebrate model for disease modeling and drug discovery. Integration of CRISPR/Cas9 technology enables precise genome editing, facilitating the development of translational models for human diseases.

Directed Evolution of an Efficient Polycarbonate Depolymerase With Exceptional Operational Stability

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Here, we show that well studied PET hydrolases can be re‐engineered via directed evolution to deconstruct alternative aromatic‐containing commodity polymers. Introduction of only three mutations into LCCICCG was sufficient to generate an efficient polycarbonate hydrolase with high operational stability that can fully depolymerize a polycarbonate sample

Enhanced Sensitivity of a Modified Quaking‐Induced Conversion Diagnostic Test for the Broad Detection of Sporadic and Inherited Prion Diseases: A Retrospective Study

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Quaking‐induced conversion (QuIC) tests, which detect prion‐seeding activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), have markedly advanced the antemortem diagnosis of prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD). These tests provide high diagnostic accuracy and enable timely differentiation from other rapidly progressive neurodegenerative ...

Direct Selection of Functional De Novo Macrocycles for Activation of On‐Cellulo Insulin Receptor

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A live‐cell screening platform, RaPID‐ExCells, integrates mRNA display‐derived macrocyclic peptide libraries with functional selection against native cell‐surface receptors. Application to the insulin receptor enabled de novo discovery of a macrocyclic agonist that activates endogenous signaling despite weak in vitro binding, highlighting the power of ...
