I'm very glad to share our new work on the evolution of sex peptide and Sex Peptide Receptor interactions! Congratulations to Junhui Junhui Peng , Nicolas, and our collaborator from the Rockefeller Proteomics Core, Henrik.

Do de novo-originated proteins have a stable structure? If so, what do they look like, and how do they evolve? I am thrilled to introduce one of our most proud work: rdcu.be/dw38a led by the excellent Junhui Peng Junhui Peng!

We also thank Junhui Peng Junhui Peng and Li Zhao for their help on AlphaFold2-based structure prediction of CDCA7-HELLS complex, which guided us to determine the critical interaction interface!

Junhui Peng Bornberg Lab Thank you!

Excited to share my first ever tweet that my de novo gene work is finally out Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…. It's been a long journey and I am really grateful for all the support, guidance, and patience from our wonderful advisor Dr. Li Zhao (@lizzyzhao).

(3). By combining ancestral sequence reconstruction and structural modeling, we did not observe drastic changes in their structures over their short evolutionary trajectories.
