Last week, the Baker Lab in collaboration with the De Yoreo lab at PNNL published a report in Nature describing the design of synthetic protein arrays that assemble on the surface of mica, a common and exceptionally smooth crystalline mineral. This work provides a foundation for understanding how protein-crystal interactions can be systematically programmed. Although R@h was not directly used for this research, previously designed subunits were validated using R@h. Congratulations to all R@h volunteers and thank you for your continued contributions.
