The Open Insulin and Real Vegan Cheese projects are currently both focusing on protein expression in the industrial yeast Pichia pastoris. However much of the research infrastructure around Pichia is subject to various patents and licenses. A group in Belgium is developing a completely open source set of tools to get around that, which could be really useful for our own projects!
We'll be doing a journal club this Monday, 7pm PST, on the OPENPichia project. Here is the link to the paper:
If you can read the paper in advance and contribute to the discussion, that would be great. Or if you just want to show up and listen, that's fine too.
Here's the zoom link to join us during the weekly RVC meetup this Monday:
I know that the Open Insulin list I CC'd on here is not the most active communication channel anymore for Open Insulin, so if any of the OI folks could crosspost this invite to Mattermost, that would be appreciated!
