Online now @ Cell is the yeast multicellular engineering paper from Fankang Meng - the fruits of his productive PhD in our group. He developed modular synthetic biology tools to bring multicellular behaviours to yeast - specific adhesion, juxtacrine signalling and more. www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Engineering yeast multicellular behaviors via synthetic adhesion and contact signaling

By designing synthetic toolkits for contact-based signaling (MARS) and cell-cell adhesion (SATURN), we program yeast to form multicellular structures and perform complex tasks, like building logic cir...

- Are bacterial sRNA systems inherently more prone to negative regulation? - How relevant is sRNA recycling? - How can we use sRNAs for synthetic biology? A review with @danielschindler.bsky.social and Bork Berghoff explores the knobs and levers of sRNA-mediated regulation. doi.org/10.1021/acss...

Harnessing Small RNAs as Synthetic Post-transcriptional Regulators in Bacteria

Bacteria can respond to environmental changes by expressing small RNAs (sRNAs), which regulate mRNAs by complementary base-pairing. This regulatory mechanism allows bacteria to rapidly adapt their pro...
