Thanks to @PennMedBench for featuring our research on structural insights into the SOS response, a key pathway in the evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Check out the June 2024 Benchmarks issue & lead author @michael_cory22's tweetorial below! mailchi.mp/uphs/penn-medi…

Congrats to Michael! With thanks to great collaborators & the kind reviewer who echoed our excitement saying, “After ~50 years of study, we finally have a detailed model for how RecA catalyzes the autocleavage of LexA…” @BMBGGUPENN @PennChemistry @BB_UPenn

Base editors are transformative precision genome editing tools. But do we really understand how Cas9 & DNA deaminases work together to shape editing outcomes? See how Kiara tackled this Q below to introduce both a powerful diversifying editor & new mechanistic model for BEs! 🧵👇
Kiara N. Berríos Adorno, Ph.D.@Berrios_KN

The last lead author article from my PhD is out! In @NAR_open, we report our mechanistic study on how Cas9 and AID enzymes collaborate to shape base editing outcomes. Leveraging these insights, we create hyperactive BEs with the potential for targeted gene diversification. 1/

It was a joy to be part of this collaborative effort and expand our own interest in base editors to the world of RNA BEs. Congrats to @HugoMedinaMunoz and all the other authors! Read about using rBEs in PRINTER to study RNA-protein interactions 👇 nature.com/articles/s4146…
Hugo Medina-Muñoz@HugoMedinaMunoz

This work involved talented young scientists like @EricKofman and @pratibhajagann_ and was a collaboration with @KohliLab and @KomorLab. It allowed me to apply mentoring skills gained through my @SD_IRACDA training while supervising undergraduates who made valuable contributions.

Congrats to @michael_cory22 for being awarded the Kanefield Prize for Research @pennbgs! Michael’s dissertation work on bacterial DNA repair via the SOS response pathway provides key insights to help combat antibiotic resistance, a major concern among #CysticFibrosis patients.

Joint-snhmC-seq adapts a dual-sequencing pipeline method to obtain base-resolution readouts of both 5mC and 5hmC in single cells. Big congrats to @hao_wu_7 who led this work! See our recent @NatureBiotech paper for more details: nature.com/articles/s4158… (2/2)

Being able to limit the size & control the copy number of genomic information in a human artificial chromosome would be a major step forward...and here it is! 🧑‍🦰🤖🧬 See below for must-read work from the lab of Ben Black @BB_UPenn @PennGenomeInteg 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our new paper @ACSPublications! We melded our biochemistry expertise + @CisnerosRes computational expertise to turn a natural DNA methyltransferase (MTase) into a neomorphic DNA carboxy-MTase with novel substrate selectivity🧬. See the tweetorial below for more👇
Christian Loo@ChristianLoo_

(1/5) Delighted to share my work in concert with co-first author @MarkAHix where we used combined computational and biochemical approaches to interrogate the active site of a carboxymethyltransferase (CxMTase) out now @ #ACSChemBio (DOI: doi.org/10.1021/acsche…).
