Gratz on the first paper!
TOC of the paper showing a light responsive transimination influencing a non-photoresponsive transimination (at least at 405 nm irradiation).
🚨📢Out now in #Chem, @jiarongwu.bsky.social and I figure out how to perturb a non-photoresponsive reaction(🌚) out of equilibrium using our imine-based photoswitches🔦💡This is achieved using a light-responsive transimination!(🌝)

Thanks! Yeah, my old method of adding an overhang on cadnano to find it on oxDNA was painful xD It's remains a little hard for us to iterate between the (s)cadnano strand-routing map design to the 3D oxDNA with our off-lattice ATHENA wireframes. But, you've already makes my life waaaay easier
oh that scadnano integration is great, thanks, I'd hadn't noticed it before
Awesome! Do you guys have any tips on how you orientate yourselves when editing between cadnano and visualizing/relaxing in oxDNA? I often find it really hard to locate what I've changed in our highly symmetric structures on cadnano (might be more of a problem with our symmetric wireframes)
🧬 A new tutorial article from our student Sarah, walking step by step through DNA origami simulation using oxDNA model, with the help of oxview.org and oxdna.org free tools. No prior experience assumed, and also accompanied by a video: youtu.be/5-rgMekX8gE

Actually come to think of it, its gotta be the protein. That dye on it's own would be soooooo absorbing
I think it's the protein. There's a big farm complex in Germnay that makes them at scale. Gonna doubt dye survives for that long on it's own.
Three molecular structures of food dyes on the top, and three common highly colored foods on the bottom. Which molecules correspond to which food?
Went further down the rabbit hole following the Red #3 banning, and now a challenge to #Chemsky: can you match the molecular structure of the food dye to its implementation? Let's see the photochemists (or more realistically the food chemists) flex their absorption spectrum muscles! No cheating!
I think back in the UK we've substitution that blue dye for it bio-derived bilins in lots of sweets. But, its transition dipole's just not as fun :(
