Ehrt & Schnappinger Labs
@EhrtSchnapLab
Ehrt and Schnappinger Lab (Weill Cornell Medicine). Tuberculosis Research. Account run by graduate students, because the concept of free time scares us.













@tiagobeites et al from the lab found that in Mtb, the lack of etfD results in a block in β-oxidation at the step catalyzed by acyl-CoA dehydrogenases rendering the mutant unable to grow on fatty acids and making the long chain fatty acids bactericidal. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Lab Meetings are Sacred to me Evidence: I have never missed a single lab meeting in ~10 years, at least 300 lab meetings. Philosophy: This is where we honor our team members with our shared attention and thoughtful engagement, and they honor us with their preparation. 1/n
