Over the last half century, a range of cell‐free protein expression systems based on pro‐ and
eukaryotic organisms have been developed and have found a range of applications, from …

Tyrosine kinases and SH2 (phosphotyrosine recognition) domains have binding specificities
that depend on the amino acid sequence surrounding the target (phospho) tyrosine residue…

Although numerous techniques for protein expression and production are available the pace
of genome sequencing outstrips our ability to analyze the encoded proteins. To address …

Biological information processing networks rely on allosteric protein switches that dynamically
interconvert biological signals. Construction of their artificial analogues is a central goal of …

The rapid spread of arthropod-borne Zika virus poses a serious public health threat that calls
