Please check out our new publication that uses a cool technique to identify a mutation that likely was necessary for SARS-CoV-2 emergence into humans. Great collaboration with @Biochem_Anne @Biochem_Amanda @Opiniomics Lin Kang and others.

Our recent pub in collab with @AlessandroPiai and Chou Lab at HarvardMed! We used MD sims to explore the stability of the NMR model gp41 baseplate where we observed an ascending concerted movement in the CT domain and local membrane thinning. Check it out! @Biochem_Anne #compchem

We did it! We derived, for the first time, a complete #NMR model of the ENTIRE membrane-interacting region of the #HIV‑1 fusion protein and described its perturbation of membrane morphology. Thank you @Biochem_Anne for the amazing collaboration! @J_A_C_S pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Biochem major, Truitt Elliott, is 1/2 students assigned to the COVID-19 database project.
"Working on this project required me to learn new skills quickly, but I've been able to use what I've learned about web scripting to focus more on web development & database management."

@pyroov8 I started out at Piedmont Virginia CC then transferred to Virginia Tech for a BS in biochem. I ended up staying at VT, got a master's in biochem, and am now a PhD student in an interdisciplinary program. I also help manage my lab, which we are very CC student friendly.
