Reshaping enzymes like play dough for the sustainable production of aviation fuel.

Real science:
1. Is not correlated with the amount of funding
2. Progresses slowly, usually taking many years
3. Leads to more questions than it answers
4. Advances when we disengage a bit and have improvisational discussions
5. Is too serious a thing to be done in a non-playful way

🎊It has been a long and tough journey💪, but the paper is finally out online. Excited to share this work led by my first PhD student, Chenyu elucidating the structures and functions of natural bacteria-derived PGNs in the host gut. https://t.co/NQ3WNWnyk4

Did you know?

In 2019, the French National Centre for Scientific Research (@CNRS) opened @CNRSatCREATE, its first overseas subsidiary in Singapore. CNRS@CREATE collaborates with local universities, research institutions, and global partners, including nine other top class institutions, to run 14 interdisciplinary programmes. 📚🔬

This initiative aims to foster research and innovation collaborations between CNRS and Singapore, focusing on areas relevant to the nation's social and economic needs while encouraging industry partnerships with French industrial actors present in Singapore. 🇫🇷🇸🇬

Singapore Changi is already building T5 and KLIA's Aerotrain is still not moving haha. Malunya.

This is why we fund science.

#CNRSnews📰As in the recently-released movie Mickey 17, will it be possible one day to download the human mind into other bodies and eventually achieve immortality?🕊️A CNRS scientist provides his insight into the issue and the ethical questions it raises

😲 Time to revise textbooks 🤔
Title: "Transcription factors interact with RNA to regulate genes"

"at least half of TFs also bind RNA, doing so through a previously unrecognized domain"

Happy Transposon Day 2023! Today is the 121st birthday of Barbara McClintock, founder of the #transposon field and Nobel laureate. Please celebrate with us by using the hashtag #TransposonDay2023. How has Barbara McClintock or her work influenced you? https://t.co/rRm70T0MUf

[Allan Ng @allannwren]

Ever wondered how bacteria and yeast in your gut 'talk' to each other?

By molecular docking & genetics studies, we identified critical amino acid residues that interact with bacterial peptidoglycan in C. albicans Cyr1, a known PGN sensing protein: https://t.co/isBEw5u1Py

[Yuan @Yuanqiao1002]

Congrats to @allannwren and the team for our work to shed molecular insights on PGN recognition by C.albicans. https://t.co/BRAi7fQPaE

Technological wonder or unethical convenience? 🤔

No one is talking about how amazing Photoshop's generative AI is going to be for science. A simple "improve correlation" prompt and say goodbye to p > 0.05!

[Allan Ng @allannwren]

In this review, we discuss the background and applications of TelN-tos system for the functional expression of a wide range of proteins. The system allows preferential host expression of linear plasmid as opposed to the classical circular conformation.

It's my #Twitterversary! I have been on Twitter for 12 years, since 19 Jan 2011 (via @twi_age).

We are excited to share our new work @Nature, led by @Lenka_Dohnal, uncovering a gut-brain pathway that regulates the motivation for #exercise. (1/7)
