Scientists are problem solvers- needed ribbon to wrap a gift for my friend who hosted me in NOLA during the ACS meeting- lanyard to the rescue!

It was so great hosting Tania for today’s colloquium- it was a full house for her excellent talk!

Coming up in just a few days! Jan 17 @ 12 noon ET
Join us for the next ACS Organic Division Virtual Symposium
Our first speaker will be Prof. Malika Jeffries-El @chem_diva from Boston University BU Chemistry

Structural and biochemical studies of Met18, a CIA Pathway heat repeat protein, show that Met18 forms different oligomers, has a flexible N-terminus that binds client protein Leu1, and a C-terminus that binds CIA protein Cia2: nature.com/articles/s4200… Catherine Drennan

New research from Catherine Drennan explores how a protein called Met18, which is part of a ubiquitous pathway to transfer clusters of iron and sulfur, can interact with other Met18 units to form intertwined structures biology.mit.edu/news/news-brie…

Beyond excited to share this work! Congrats to Sheena Vasquez and melissa - this would not have been possible without the strong team you two formed. Turns out, Met18's role in flexibly identifying clients complicates its structural analysis.

perhaps the best invite to submit a paper i have gotten yet.
'Journal of Waste Management and Disposal welcomes the submission of papers ... Based on your research experience and expertise'

HA - so my work is trash - ouch.

So thankful to Dennis Dean for writing this commentary on our recent paper!
The title is amazing “Trp-ing out on cytosolic iron sulfur cluster delivery”

Apparently fall came when I was on my NOLA-bama trip. We didn’t get a photo but thanks Patrick Frantom for hosting me for the seminar at Alabama.since we forgot to do a photo, enjoy these fall leaves instead

Y-E-S - it is out - so excited this work is now officially published. Thanks Antonio J. Pierik for the amazing collaboration

Thanks Tulane University Chemistry for hosting me yesterday! It was fun to catch up before Tulane Alumni reunion weekend. It was so much fun I didn’t remember to take any photos except a selfie as I walked out of my hotel.
