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 #glycotime

@vishavsharma_ @ACSCentSci Awesome work!

@stephen_wolfram Please update your research with these recent findings from my group.

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.

A concise synthesis of a structurally very challenging tetrasaccharide is achieved in 28 steps from free sugars via an iMAP strategy.

@JukeBaRosh Industry pay scales are a whole different ball game compared to academia. It can be hard for me to wrap my head around it sometimes.

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.

A life update: I moved from Texas to San Francisco to start my career as a research scientist at Charles River Laboratories.

Congrats to post doc Hayley Knox on her cool review of genomic enzymology - first Allen lab paper of 2023!

You've probably seen ads for the Google pixel's magic eraser feature. Just wanted to show a real world example.
