How are pentofuranose side chains added to polysaccharides? Here we showed a three-component system is responsible with enzymes showing similarity to mycobacterial AG biosynthesis - leading to a new glycosyltransferase family (GT136) #CAZy#glycotimepnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
Thiamin Biosynthesis!! Radical SAM Enzyme!! Remarkably Complex Chemistry!!
Check out our work on the mechanistic enzymology of the ThiC-catalyzed reaction in bacterial thiamin biosynthesis in @ACSCentSci. It was a great team effort. (1/3)

I can't always see the hummingbirds as they fly around near my window, but I can see my cat's head following them. And that's pretty much how a coupled assay works in enzymology.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Why doesn't someone buy an old movie theater and play old movies?
No reclining seats, no reserve seating. Really tap into the feeling of nostalgia.
You can't tell me that seeing E.T. or The Lion King in a crappy old theater wouldn't be a hit.
Just came out in @J_A_C_S.

A concise synthesis of a structurally very challenging tetrasaccharide is achieved in 28 steps from free sugars via an iMAP strategy.
I am hiring an Associate Scientist to join the protein sciences group at our South San Francisco site. Feel free to send me candidates that have experience in protein purification and QC.

Just looked up how tall a T-Rex was (12 feet) and now I feel like I've been lied to my whole life. Jurassic park had me thinking they were like 40 feet tall.
Calling all Enzyme Mechanics! The Texas Enzyme Mechanisms Meeting will be held on June 3, 2023 in Austin, TX @UTexasPharmacy . Website and details to follow! #UTCBMC
