@NitscheLab (@ANUChemistry) & colleagues @UOsaka_en open a new chapter for bismuth in chemical biology, introducing bioactive Bi-selenopeptides with exceptional stability. Even human EGF traps two Bi atoms — removal is nearly impossible! #openaccess 🔓 https://t.co/B1FYQirgvW

[Christoph Nitsche @NitscheLab]

Big congrats to @pritha_2107, @MinghaoShang, Kat, @Lani_D1, @UpamaliSajinika and our fantastic collaborators Toshiki and Hironobu @IPR_pr @UOsaka_en for this massive effort on second-generation bismuth peptides and proteins, just published in @angew_chem. https://t.co/gY730T05CP

We’ve been dreaming of this type of conjugation chemistry for years—and finally, a simple fix to a stubborn problem, all thanks to just a tiny drop of CS₂. Minimalist chemistry is the new gold. ✨

😊Delighted to share our latest #publication in collab with Dr. Rajendra Karki & colleagues from @SeoulNatlUni. In this @NatureComms paper, we show that #acrolein, a byproduct of our cells but also found in #cigarette smoke, #kills cells & contributes to #inflammation @ourANU 1/3

Hot off the press in @NatureChemistry: Our paper on seed-competent stapled peptides that mimic the core fold of pathological tau! https://t.co/ssOL8tjjfJ Huge congrats to Isaac, Ben, and collaborators in the Jiang and Vidal labs. #PeptideScience #tau https://t.co/tqdFkMvTZM

[Sven Ullrich @s_ullr]

Really enjoyed presenting part of my PhD work at @RACInational #MCCB2025 in Darwin, reconnecting with the Australian MedChem and ChemBio community and seeing some crocodiles again too!

[Elwy Abdelkader @elwology]

Huge thanks to @Chem_CP for highlighting our work on biosynthesis of nitrile amino acids and fast protein labeling
Excited about the new possibilities in chemical biology and live-cell imaging. Thanks @ARC_CIPPS @ANUChemistry #ChemicalBiology #SyntheticBiology #ProteinEngineering
