I'm excited to share our latest collaboration with @fidocklab using mixed alkyl/aryl phosphonates to identify possible drug targets in Plasmodium. Our work offers a possible method for deciphering important drug targets, mechanism of action, and mechanisms of resistance.
Our paper using mixed alkyl aryl phosphonates to identify serine hydrolases in Plasmodium falciparum that are potential drug targets is out. Great work from @ChemBio_John and collaborations with @fidocklab. Free Download here -https://t.co/b4SNq0PS9G

Happy for these two guys who just graduated last week. They started in the lab 2 days apart and finished 1 day apart. Congrats to @FrancoFaucher and @ChemBio_John. On to many more great things as PhDs.
Lessons from nature for antimalarial agent discovery. 💊
@ChemBio_John & colleagues (from @mbogyo & @fidocklab) develop serine hydrolase inhibitors targeting plasmodium parasites.

This work once again shows the value of targeting serine hydrolases within the parasite with covalent molecules that prevent the rapid evolution of resistance. These types of strategies will be invaluable in the identification of novel mechanisms of action.
Check out our latest work on Plasmodium with @fidocklab where we explored a novel set of mixed alkyl/aryl phsophonates as tool compounds to identify and probe essential lipid metabolizing serine hydrolases and pathways within the parasite.
Our latest collaboration with @fidocklab is out. PhD student @ChemBio_John found mixed aryl/alkyl phosphonates that target essential serine hydrolases in Plasmodium falciparum. They kill parasites with low overall induced resistance. https://t.co/u35aqo43Qk

Congratulations @AmandaWigg_, thesis work now in press @NatureComms. Inspired by the structure of the hypothalamic hormone TRH (pyroglu-his-pro-amide), Amanda shows “capping” defines a chemical motif present in many previously unknown bioactive peptides

Check our most recent work highlighting the importance of covalency in overcoming resistance! Really proud to get this work out and thank you to all of our collaborators!
Check out our latest work targeting the malaria proteasome. Another outstanding collaboration with @fidocklab. Congrats to @ChemBio_John and the other authors! https://t.co/9kc0ZB6M8p
HAYYYYY, joining the role call as a FIFTH year @StanfordUChem characterizing cholesterol protein interactome in bacterium that makes its own cholesterol 🤯🧫
A girl that wears many hats & interested in using chemical tools to probe molecular biology!

Check out our latest work on how we have used covalent macrocyclic inhibitors of the malaria proteasome to combat the growth of resistance. Big shout-out to @fidocklab@RyanKMuir and everyone else who was a part of this story!
It's all about covalent inhibitors! See how covalent macrocycles that target the malaria proteasome can prevent resistance. Great work from the Bogyo lab @ChemBio_John in collaboration with @fidocklab.

Peptides with some extra flare – capped peptides! I am excited to share the preprint of my work on capped peptides. Capped peptides represent a large class of circulating molecules. (1/9) https://t.co/OWKTUtMtm7 @longlabstanford@Stanford_ChEMH@WuTsaiAlliance@StanfordPath
So excited to finally be sharing this story!! Thank you to the many collaborators (including @taylorhnguyen in KC Huang's lab, the teams of @ajodonoghue, @MJNiphakis and Ami Bhatt, and my mentor @MLakeme) for helping me and @mbogyo bring this story to life!
Our first paper on our efforts mapping serine hydrolases in gut commensal bacteria is out. We identified a homolog of the human DPP4 protease in B. theta that is important for community fitness. https://t.co/24vXeHnAJ6
Check out our latest work on ChemRxiv, where make our first entry into the catalytic hydrogenation of epoxides! This work was done by @ColgateChem students Fallyn Kirlin, Olivia Borden, @mchead12, and Sophie Kelly.

I'm searching for a PhD student to start in my brand new lab @UniofBath in Oct 2022. The project will use phage display for covalent ligand discovery. Retweets are much appreciated. https://t.co/MYLrash30j
