Episode 1 of S6 #STEAMulaterGames is HERE! We’re starting off with the amino acid Methionine, as represented by the 1st song on the iconic #PinkFriday2: Gag City Pluto Edition! 💗

Congrats to our 1st winner @nesu_leigh 🇿🇼, who wins 🪙100 STEAMulater Coins = US$100! She’s helping galvanize students in Namibia 🇳🇦 toward protein design + social media opportunities—and for her TASC, she created yesterday’s 🔥 flyer for the season!

Episode 2 drops later today + full rules are coming to the website. Notifications ON! 🛎️ Who will win $ for X premium and #GagCitySubs ? Grand prize: $1000 to whoever finishes S6 with the most #STEAMulaterCoins. 🏆

Colonial names vs. African names came up in our #STEAMulaterConversation across generations and continents. More coming soon between my dad and i as we reconnect discussing Ai, distance, family, career and more as we catch up after a 16year separation.

most protein design focuses on using the 20 amino acids for protein function. in biology, post-translational modifications such as glycosylations are essential to function. we program protein function through glycosylation👇

Fibronectin — the molecular glue between your cells. #MolecularMinute It links collagen to integrins, scaffolds wound healing, guides embryos as they form — and cancer cells hijack it to spread. PDB: 1FNF. @STEAMulater 🧬 https://t.co/0TCRXkg82r
