@chicalab.bsky.socialGreat to have NIH support to learn the rules of small-molecule driven allostery in proteins! Plan is to build some pretty useful proteins along the way for biology and medicine. Interested? Reach out! And congrats to my colleague Xin! Clearly DFCI is a great place to tackle bold ideas!

Show PostWe can design "static" binders routinely now, but design of "dynamic" shape-changing proteins has remained quite hard. Jeffrey Chang and I asked: why can't we couple small-molecule binding to shape change? After all, natural proteins do it every day. In a new preprint, we show how it can be done. 🧵
