We report here the first Mn-dependent hydroxylase known in biology. Lots of really fun crystallography and spectroscopy in there. More Mn enzymes will follow. But for now:
Well done, Magan Powell.
The manuscript for the central piece of my PhD project is up on the ChemRxiv! If you like NMR, FeS clusters, or exchange coupled systems consider taking a look!

30 years ago today, the Borovik lab opened its doors. Happy anniversary to @cgriordan as well, who launched his lab on the same day! Cheers to 30 years of wonderful colleagues!🥳
Happy belated 80th birthday symposium held this weekend for Judith Klinman @klinmanlab, a pioneer in enzyme catalysis, metals in biology, and for women in chemistry. A dear mentor since the time she hired me at @UCB_Chemistry when she was chair. She is a legend!
What can't azurin do?? We're excited to share new bioorganometallic chemistry in nickel azurin! Congratulations Tasha and Alina, and many many thanks to our awesome collaborator @MadDogShearer. Hot off the press at https://t.co/KZJckvGJWh
We're celebrating Friday with a perspective article on Artificial Metalloprotein designs and applications, out today in @JACS_Au! 👏👏👏 Congrats to former post-doc Spencer, 5th year Ankita, and 3rd year
@nminneti! Check it out here 👇https://t.co/XThKwSZa8G
Out now in @J_A_C_S, we isolate (formally!) Cu(III) metallacycles using zirconocene chemistry, and study their quantitative reductive elimination to a highly antiaromatic phenanthrocyclobutadiene https://t.co/Nn1tJHWjRk
Out today in @J_A_C_S is @rjodts’s paper on pMMO! Using EPR and ENDOR techniques with the Hoffman lab, we report the first spectroscopic characterization of the CuC site as well as show that both copper sites are conserved across species. Give it a read! https://t.co/XUnfK4D0qW
https://t.co/zcKfH9VJgb Intramolecular electric fields control all blue copper sites! We show that electric fields exerted on Cu sites throughout the proteins influence the Cu first-shell geometry & covalency and their spectroscopic or redox properties. @ChemicalScience@uclachem
