Fluorescent protein-based biosensors are indispensable molecular tools in cell biology and biomedical research, providing non-invasive dynamic measurements of metabolite concentrations and other cellular signals. Traditional methods for developing th...
Molecular evolution based on mutagenesis is widely used in protein engineering. However, optimal proteins are often difficult to obtain due to a large sequence space. Here, we propose a novel approach that combines molecular evolution with machine le...
We developed a new way to engineer complex proteins toward multidimensional specifications using a simple, yet scalable, directed evolution strategy. By robotically picking mammalian cells that were identified, under a microscope, as expressing prote...
Bioluminescence plays an important role in nature, for example, it is used for intracellular chemical signalling in bacteria. It is also used as a useful reagent for various analytical research methods ranging from cellular imaging to gene expression...
Robot swarms have, to date, been constructed from artificial materials. Motile biological constructs have been created from muscle cells grown on precisely shaped scaffolds. However, the exploitation of emergent self-organization and functional plast...
Phylogenetic inference is of fundamental importance to evolutionary as well as other fields of biology, and molecular sequences have emerged as the primary data for this task. Although many phylogenetic methods have been developed to explicitly take ...
Microfluidic devices have been increasingly used for low-volume liquid handling operations. However, laboratory automation of such delicate devices has lagged behind due to the lack of world-to-chip (macro-to-micro) interfaces. In this paper, we have...
Bioluminescent Proteins (BLPs) are widely distributed in many living organisms that act as a key role of light emission in bioluminescence. Bioluminescence serves various functions in finding food and protecting the organisms from predators. With the...

Improving fluorescent proteins through the use of directed evolution requires robust techniques for screening large libraries of genetic variants. Here we describe an effective and relatively low-cost system for screening libraries of fluorescent pro...
