I was asked to contribute an entry on 'Ancestral Reconstruction: Theory & Practice" for the Encyclopedia of Evolutionary Biology, 2nd Edition. The encyclopedia doesn't come out until next year, but my contribution is already available online: doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-443-1….

If you are interested in collapsing nodes of a phylogeny, but you, as I did, struggle doing it with ggtree, I programmed a ggtree extension that allows you to easily collapse the nodes you want. 🧵️

🧬What are protein language models (PLMs) actually learning about biology? Our paper introduces InterPLM - a framework that reveals interpretable features in PLMs using sparse autoencoders, giving us a window into how these models represent protein structure and function.

Happy to share a chapter of my PhD thesis🐣! We review the diversity of the cell envelope in Terrabacteria which tell us a lot about outer membrane biogenesis and the diderm-to-monoderm transition. Thanks to my co-authors Najwa Taib @ChrisBel70 @SGribaldo

I really like this. I’m decent at Python but R is still the language I feel most comfortable with, so this made some concepts a little more crystallized for me via analogy to R. I think it’s a great resource for people who started with R

⚛️Protein structures are key to elucidating molecular details of cellular processes. #AlphaFold2 & others unveiled millions of tertiary structures, but these proteins' quaternary structures remain mostly a mystery. Here's how to bridge the gap. Thread👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Taking a weirdly perverse pleasure in this new paper - driven by @jasonkklow @TaraBartolec. I recommended Jason not pursue this - but am enjoying him ingoring me and me being totally wrong :-)
They combined a massive XLMS dataset with AF2 to v. nice effect. @SydneySOLES

Has #AlphaFold solved the strucural proteome? How can we most efficiently experimentally validate the theoretically expanded #structuralproteome universe? In our preprint, we address these very questions using cross-linking mass spectrometry #XLMS! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. 1/14

It is finally out! Spruiking our new paper in @PNASNews! I was a fantastic collaboration between the Wilkins’ lab over at @UNSWBABS, the @PayneResearch group at @SydneyChemistry, the @JoelPMackay group and I (@jasonkklow) at @SydneySOLES. Thank you everyone for your support!
