Today in @NatureGenet, we report a saturation genome editing study that systematically dissects the degron of β-Catenin: one of the most frequently mutated regions of the cancer genome. Collab with @kiddevonline and @DeryaDOzdemir, among many others rdcu.be/e1Tvk

1/ Happy to share important work done with my co-author Andrew Khalil in the labs of Rudolf Jaenisch @WhiteheadInst @MITBiology @MIT and Dave Mooney @Harvard @wyssinstitute trying to assess and fix the major problem of transgene silencing in human ESC/iPSC based work

The big one is finally out!! In this paper, we set out to provide insight into the fundamental question; How do the individual cells from complex tissues regulate their proteomes? Brief summary of our findings 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our manuscript characterising tissue-specific consequences of tagged protein fusions in CRISPR-engineered mice is now online @PLOSGenetics. journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…. Thanks again to all coauthors, reviewers and editors for a smooth publication process.

Happy to share our latest work and first manuscript from the Degron Tagging Cluster @MRCMouseNetwork. If you work with protein tags, particularly in tissue biology models, this should be of interest. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We characterise two underlying mechanisms with opposing effects on protein stability and explain their tissue-specificity, providing a rational basis for improved experimental design. Congrats to 1st author Gillian Taylor and all who contributed. Feedback welcome!

By surveying a series of CRISPR-engineered mice, we found that tags often change protein expression in some tissues but have little effect, or even opposite effects, in others. Why?

Excited to share my PhD work, out now in @ScienceMagazine ! What governs successful lysosomal degradation of membrane proteins mediated by extracellular degraders? Can we improve degradation efficacy? science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…🧵(1/n)

Published today in @Nature, we describe an approach for single-molecule protein reading on @nanopore arrays. By utilizing ClpX unfoldase to ratchet proteins through a CsgG nanopore, we achieved single-amino-acid sensitivity. nature.com/articles/s4158…

What if I told you that I co-founded a startup in 1987 that obtained world-wide rights to GLP1 as a metabolic Rx, collaborated with Pfizer to show key activities, & abandoned it in 1990 when Pfizer lost interest? I tell the previously untold tale in an open access paper now up in Perspectives in Biology and Medicine. Enjoy! muse.jhu.edu/pub/1/article/…
