University of Miami, FL: molecular and cellular basis of proton sensing, synBio for health/energy and drug discovery, novel data science for protein structure-function informatics, and AI: https://www.isomlab.com
We just wrapped up the 7th Molecular & Cellular Pharmacology Retreat in the Florida Keys, and the energy was incredible. Under the theme “Colab in the Cays,” scientists from 15+ labs shared 53 talks across two days, with every single participant presenting their work.

PIONEER: A Periplasmic Display Platform for Synthetic Biology-Based Screening of Genetically Encoded Protein Regulators
Periplasmic display in yeast is a promising but underdeveloped method for screening and studying genetically encoded biomolecules. We present PIONEER, a modular platform that localizes peptides, prote...

"A recent study employing parallel mutagenesis of titratable residues in GPR68 identified a conserved triad of buried acidic residues in proton sensing GPCRs. Here, too, neutral mutations to these sites shift pH50 but do not abolish proton-mediated receptor activation."
I have received many requests for this, so I am sharing it here. I hope it works (password: 7i+fFdMG) @Pap_Corps @SylvesterCancer @danIsomLab: tinyurl.com/Pap-Corps-EC...

In my excitement for his visit, I forgot to get a selfie with Henrik. This will have to do 😂

Advances in yeast synthetic biology for human G protein–coupled receptor biology and pharmacology
G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of transmembrane receptors in humans. Over 800 GPCRs regulate the (patho)biology of every o…
