Fun having our research with @FilipPetegem on gut bacteria featured live today on The Evan Bray Show on CKOM, Saskatoon. The @CanLightSource at @Usask continues to be an invaluable resource for Canadian science. @ubcmsl @UBCChem @UBCbiochemistry https://t.co/QT2V5LZl1k

Nice to have this collaborative work with @FilipPetegem showcased by the @CanLightSource.

@jbwallingford @cleaverlab @Lab_VPrince This reminds me of the Biochemical Journal's laudable "painless publishing" strategy from about a decade ago: https://t.co/UgTCGdc1ky

Bert & his team called this a pedal bin mechanism... because of the SusD lid opening and closing - as Simon Newstead (@inwardopen) said in @JBR_White's viva "It's more like a flushing toilet!"

Great to see another favorite @CAZyDB family, GH31, getting the subfamily treatment, also using @ahvdk 's excellent tool, SSNpipe. Kudos to @sjwill99, @NicolasTerrapon, @ethangbaus, and team. #SequenceSimilarityNetworks https://t.co/Ah5ePzpXzm

Applications OPEN for a great conference! Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes for Glycan Conversions
https://t.co/qAAqR1TNfR
Lots of opportunities for talks from grad students and postdocs! Don't forget to apply to the associated GRC as well!

[BrumerLab @BrumerLab]

Yay! The last installment of Hila's endo-glucanase 16 work is out in @PlantDirectJ. Great collab. w/ the Mansfield, Samuels, and Pauly labs. @ubcmsl @ubcforestry @UBCBotany @HHU_de Long story short: We still don't really know what these enzymes do in vivo! https://t.co/0BDM760JTG

Never heard of Copper Radical Oxidases before? Check out our new review from @ubcmsl in #EssaysinBiochemistry (@PPPublishing) as a primer. These enzymes have a deep biochemical/mechanistic history and newfound roles in fungal, bacterial, & plant biology: https://t.co/DgRw3LxnAS

Our new paper is out! 植物病原糸状菌の形態形成と感染適応戦略 : Science Advances 2022

[Science Advances @ScienceAdvances]

How can we protect food crops from #fungal diseases? Researchers including @jgberrin and @KbYasuyuki have identified a pair of enzymes that primes fungal pathogens for plant infection that could open new avenues for preventing disease and protecting crops. https://t.co/2icLn691ra

[BrumerLab @BrumerLab]

Proud to be part of this stellar work led by our colleagues @BBF_lab (@jgberrin, @LafondMichael3, @BastienBissaro) and @KbYasuyuki on the critical role of a Copper Radical Oxidase/Peroxidase enzyme pair in fungal phytopathogenesis.

[Bastien Bissaro @BastienBissaro]

Hot-of-the press !! Excited to share our last study, in which we reveal a new plant infection mechanism involving fungal metalloenzymes! (1/n)

A nice way to end the week: Yann & @MClevelandPhD's capstone paper from their time in the lab is out today in @ACSCatalysis. Yann's original vision plus a little scientific serendipity made this a pretty cool story. @ubcmsl @ubcchem @UBCBioProducts https://t.co/3UU7RqHXZj

Lead researcher Matthias Kretschmer & team from the @KronstadLab & @BrumerLab are cracking the code for a cure to “corn smut” (Ustilago maydis). 🌽🔬
