This study investigates how LL-37 binds to nucleic acids, forming complexes that affect DNA structure and NET clearance, with implications for immune regulation and disease.

This paper introduces a modular polyketide synthase platform for producing diols, amino alcohols, and hydroxyacids using engineered Streptomyces albus strains.

This paper engineers a two-strain bacterial system to autonomously secrete and assemble a synthetic extracellular protein matrix, demonstrating programmable and high-yield biopolymer secretion.
