Repository-scale reanalysis of public mass spectrometry-based metabolomics data is facilitated by the Reanalysis of Data User (ReDU) interface, a system that uses consistent formatting and controlled vocabularies for metadata capture.
Genetically encoded cysteine-rich tags enable formation of gold nanoparticles in situ for single-molecule imaging of individual proteins in the context of cellular ultrastructure in bacterial, yeast and mammalian cells.
Stimulated Brillouin scattering microscopy overcomes the trade-off between acquisition speed and spectral resolution in spontaneous Brillouin scattering microscopy and allows visualization of elasticity and viscosity, as shown in C. elegans.
Chemically inducible trimerization tools based on split FRB or FKBP with full-length FKBP or FRB, respectively, expand the chemogenetics toolbox. Their efficiency and fast kinetics enable new types of protein manipulation in live cells.
A general tuning strategy is introduced for improving the utility of rhodamines for biological imaging applications. The strategy yielded bright, versatile and bioavailable far-red and near-infrared ‘Janelia Fluor’ dyes.
OligoFISSEQ combines Oligopaints with fluorescence in situ sequencing to enable the 3D mapping of many regions across the genome in human cells to interrogate genome organization at improved genomic resolution. OligoFISSEQ is compatible with immunochemistry and OligoSTORM for super-resolution imaging.
GPCRmd is a community-driven online platform to visualize, analyze and share G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) molecular dynamics data. It currently contains simulation data representing 100% of GPCR classes, 71% of receptor subtypes and 80% of GPCR families.
NanoLuc substrates with improved solubility and bioavailability, hydrofurimazine and fluorofurimazine, strongly enhance bioluminescence signals in vivo and enable bright dual-color bioluminescent imaging with AkaLuc and AkaLumine.
Hundred-fold-faster DNA-PAINT imaging is enabled by the introduction of concatenated, periodic DNA sequence motifs in the docking strand. Six orthogonal sequences are described for speed-optimized and highly multiplexed cellular imaging.
Small vibrational tags (azide, 13C-edited carbonyl and deuterium-labeled probes) were introduced as metabolic probes for mid-infrared imaging. The tags allow unprecedented in situ visualization of metabolism in cells and animals with high information throughput.
PULSE is an optogenetic tool that consists of two modules with different wavelength sensitivities. Their interplay enables optogenetic access to gene expression in plants independently of ambient light.
CARPID uses CRISPR technology to navigate biotin ligase to specific lncRNAs, which allows proximal labeling and thus the querying of RNA–protein interactions in living cells.
