Faster and cheaper experimental screening methods will democratize and accelerate the identification of high-affinity binders with biomedical applications. Here the authors present Cell-Free Two-Hybri...
New paper out today in PRX Life!
We developed a stochastic transport model showing how antibiotic-induced ribosome pausing may trigger collective jamming on mRNA, with longer transcripts paying a disproportionate price.

You designed binders for your favourite protein and wish there was a way to experimentally screen them within 24h w/ only a set of pipettes and a plate reader?
Check out our Cell-Free 2-Hybrid approach (CF2H)
