@chris_waudby Check codon usage. If rare they give up in M9. Codon plus strains might help. If not we’ve used MOPS supplemented with 5% Celtone for difficult cases.

Great news! It's both Friday AND we have a new paper out! Our wonderful @SamLHodder has written a review: ACKnowledging the role of the Activated-Cdc42 associated kinase (ACK) in regulating protein stability in cancer. Happy reading with your coffee!

Our very own Hannah Comfort did a great job in moderating the ‘How can life sciences help meet climage challenges?’ session with guest speaker @GeorgeMonbiot. Well done Hannah!👏

[Eric Miska @ericmiska]

Very proud for @CamBiochem to host a @Cambridge_SBS event on how biology might save us in a changing climate. Featuring environmentalist, author and journalist @GeorgeMonbiot.

Secondly we’ve welcomed two new members to the lab. Welcome Jan who is starting his PhD with us and Connor who is carrying out his Part III project with us! #teamGprotein 🧪 🧫 🧬

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

Start of a new academic year and we’ve got some exciting news from the Mott Owen lab! Firstly a huge congratulations to our lovely @jessica_corry for submitting her thesis earlier this month🎉🎉We will miss you 😢 #handin #PhDlife

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

The annual @CamBiochem student symposium is underway! Well done to Carolina for presenting today 🤩 #peptides #gproteins #phdlife #inhibitors

[Ian Prior @PriorLab]

Thanks everyone who joined us in Liverpool and online for ‘Small G proteins in cell signalling and disease, 2022’. Lots of great talks, posters and interactions. @Mott_stuff were fantastic to work with organising it. Looking forward to the next one in 2025 hopefully. @BiochemSoc

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

And huge congratulations to Hannah for winning the poster prize!! #gproteins22 @BiochemSoc

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

Day 3 of the small GTPases meeting! More great talks, a walking tour of Liverpool and a conference dinner at the Maritime museum! #gproteins22

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

And finally Ana (yes you’re still being counted as one of us) co-chaired a session! #gproteins22 #WomenInSTEM #liverpool day 3 let’s gooooo🤓

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

Day 2 roundup from Liverpool at the @BiochemSoc small GTPase meeting 🤩 @jessica_corry presented her PhD work...(1/n) #gproteins22

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

As did Hannah! With more fab peptide design work 🤩 (3/n) #gproteins22

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

Here’s to another exciting day! #GProteins22

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

Day 1 highlights from the @BiochemSoc small GTPase meeting! Posters from Carolina (and re-united with previous mott-Owen legend Ana)...

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

Then these #RAScals hit the town! Can’t get £5 frozen margs in Cambridge!!

[Mott Owen Group @Mott_stuff]

And from Mo!...
