🧊 Cool to see Corintis-developed #microfluidic cooling being adopted by Microsoft

"Microsoft collaborated with Swiss startup Corintis to use AI to help optimize a bio-inspired design to cool chips’ hot spots more efficiently than straight up-and-down channels, which they also tested. The bio-design resembles the veins in a leaf or a butterfly wing – nature has proven adept at finding the most efficient routes to distribute what’s needed. "

In this project, we screened de novo designed protein libraries without natural ancestry for function, using #microfluidic droplets - and massively enriched short, truncated protein fragments. Turns out that these ≈ 40- to 60-residue fragments oligomerize to form a dynamic, catalytically proficient assembly, just as primordial peptides might have formed early enzymes during the prebiotic events that led to the #OriginOfLife! #ProteinEvolution

The design and fabrication of customized #microwells and #microfluidic chips is often challenging. This #PLOSBiology study describes a pipeline for resin-based 3D printed constructs and provides a variety of applications in biological #experiments.

Question: How do #transcription factors activate transcription?
Outside the DNA binding domain of a TF, there are numerous disordered domains, including activation domains that interact with co-activators--
very little known about that

activation domains are disordered, poorly conserved, and binding to co-activators is very low affinity

Biochip Device Tests Malaria Drug Efficacy, Safety

Well I'm excessively proud of this so I'll share it here:

We bond microfluidic chips by heating them in a lab oven for a couple hours, and I’m too lazy to go back to the lab to turn off the oven (or ask someone else to do it for me), so I made a little Arduino-powered "oven turner offer" that uses a servo to flip the power switch after a user-specified amount of time. Code available here: https://github.com/groverlab/oven_timer/ #arduino #microfluidic

Do you know those annoying layer lines on #3Dprinted parts? In resin #3Dprinters, they are as small as 25 microns… And we can make #microfluidics molds with these printers. Does this mean we can reach 25 microns features in Z?

YES! We can make a mold for a “staircase” microfluidic device. Now we have steps of 25um on the height of the channel. This #microfluidic does not only filter #microparticles, but also size-sort them. Particles of different sizes will be blocked on different steps.

Happy to see our preprint out on #bioRxiv! We screened #denovodesigned proteins for #phosphoesterase activity in #microfluidic droplets – and found truncated peptides that dynamically oligomerise to proficiently break down cAMP! This project from my time at the Hollfelder lab at the University of #Cambridge was a collaboration with the Hecht lab at #Princeton University. Special thanks to Michael Wang (co-first!) and Max Gantz for the wonderful teamwork!
