@JWestendorfPhD Thank you, Jen!

[Nate Traaseth @traasethlab]

Excited to share our article in @NatureComms describing a strategy to solve small #membraneprotein transporter structures using #cryoEM. We solved three structures of a 42 kDa efflux transporter from a single sample. Congratulations to the team and great collaboration w/@danengw

This was an amazing effort by a talented group of people! Using #nmr and #mdsimulations we show how dynamics plays a key role in the mechanism of substrate recognition by the bacterial transporter EmrE.

@PenmatsaLab @JianpingLi9 @TorresVJ_Lab @danengw Thank you very much!

[Nate Traaseth @traasethlab]

Kudos to @JianpingLi9 for leading this effort to reveal the proton-coupling mechanism of the NorA transporter from S. aureus. It was a fun collaboration among Yan Li, Akiko Koide, Huihui Kuang, @TorresVJ_Lab, Shohei Koide, and @danengw.

@gajendr03717939 @BillyMarsiglia Thank you, Gajendra!

[Nate Traaseth @traasethlab]

We used the FGF receptor kinase domain to understand how gatekeeper mutations lead to elevated activity. If you like experimental and computational biophysics, check it out. Thank you to the entire team for a fun collaboration. @BillyMarsiglia

I am thrilled to announce that I'll be starting my lab at NYU in the Department of Chemistry @nyuchemistry this fall as an assistant professor of chemical biology. Our lab will study protein self assembly mechanisms in the context of microbial adaptation.

[Nate Traaseth @traasethlab]

Had a great time with @danengw and @DoctorDougB discussing our recent article on NorA — an efflux pump with importance in #MRSA. Thank you to Tori for inviting us!

[Nate Traaseth @traasethlab]

Really glad to see Lewis recognized for his accomplishments and contributions in biophysics and NMR spectroscopy.

[Douglas Brawley @DoctorDougB]

I’m excited to share that my PhD thesis work (helped along by many talented colleagues/collaborators) is now published! It’s a great read & reveals a new paradigm for combating antibiotic resistance

Thank you to @PenmatsaLab for writing an excellent summary of our work in @nchembio

[Aravind Penmatsa @PenmatsaLab]

Our latest news&views article summarising a wonderful story on NorA (an efflux pump) structure and its inhibition by a peptide derived from the CDR loop of a Fab by @traasethlab, @danengw and the KoideLab from @nyuniversity is out now @nchembio. @MBU_IISc

Congratulations to Professor Bonnie L Bassler of @Princeton for being recognized as a 2022 #Wolf Prize laureate in Chemistry.

[Da-Neng Wang @danengw]

Ever wondered why a Na+ co-transporter bound with Na+ or substrate alone won’t flip to the other side, causing leakage?

Now a collaboration with the @Chris_mulligan lab has found an answer. The work was led by @DavidBSauer.
