Splice it into action! Inteins for controlling and probing biology
Barbara di Ventura, Universität Freiburg
Inteins are unusual proteins that perform a self-catalyzed protein splicing reaction. They have become valuable tools in synthetic and cell biology. In this talk, I will introduce the basic principles of intein function and present recent work from my lab on exploiting inteins and engineering light-controlled intein activity.
