My first, first author paper is out in @ISMEJournal ! Over the past few years in the @UCBTagaLab we have been learning about how soil bacteria share corrinoids, largely thanks to funding from @DOEScience. Here, we got some answers by studying isolates.🧵 doi.org/10.1093/ismejo…

Forgot to use #ASMicrobe but come talk to us about soil microbial communities, evolution, and nutrient exchange! 🦠

Zach will be talking about soil corrinoids and his poster will be at EEB-1139!

Zach will be speaking at the Microbial Nutrient Encryption at 8:15am (EST) on Monday 6/17

We have two fantastic postdocs @jananiharan and @ZHallberg at @ASMicrobiology presenting talks and posters!

Congrats to Hazel Anagu on the incredible talk for the NSF RaMP symposium! Catch her at @ASMicrobiology this summer as well as at Tetrapyrroles GRC to learn about nutrient based microbial interactions in soil! 🎉

Congratulations to @BeckyProcknow on a Phenomenal Phinishing talk!!! 🎉🎉🎉 you've really (ribo)switched on our excitement for corrinoids and gene regulation!

Congratulations to NSF RaMP Scholar Hazel Anagu on an amazing talk at @UCBerkeleyMicro Student Symposium!!! 🎉✨

Phylogenetic distribution and experimental characterization of corrinoid production and dependence in soil bacterial isolates [conserved in 47 out of 85 genera] @ISMEJournal by @zoilaialvarez et al from @UCBTagaLab academic.oup.com/ismej/advance-…

Fresh off the virtual press – new work from @Tagalab with @Zhallberg! A little behind the scenes on the findings and makings of this project:

Check out @zoilaialvarez 's work on corrinoid production in soil isolates here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (3/3)

Check out Kenny Mok's experimental evolution of B12 preference here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (2/3)

Happy New Year from the Taga Lab! We're kicking off our 2024 with two new preprints! 🥳(1/3)

we also went on a little butterfly outing 🦋🌟

@zoilaialvarez and @BeckyProcknow gave some incredible talks at West Coast Bacterial Physiologists! 🌟

Genetic dissection of regulation by a repressing and novel activating corrinoid riboswitch enables engineering of synthetic riboswitches @mbiojournal from @UCBTagaLab journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Everyone say congrats to @BeckyProcknow on her new paper!!! (special shoutouts to Kris Kennedy and undergrads Lesley and Max!) Read up on corrinoid riboswitches here: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

A belated congrats to @zoilaialvarez for presenting her posted at #Microbiology2023 🎊🦠

Newly published research led by @AlexaMNicolas—a recent @UCBTagaLab and @Firestone_Lab graduate—combines @banfieldlab techniques for genome-resolved metagenomics to detail the link between soil viruses and greenhouse gas emissions. Read more at @igisci: innovativegenomics.org/news/rainy-sea…
