Happy to officially be a PhD candidate now!
Thank you to everyone who has supported me this past year!

Check out our work on introducing thioesters into ribosomal bond formation! It's been a super awesome experience being part of such an interdisciplinary project and super excited to finally see it live on @ChemRxiv!
✨ New C-GEM preprint:
Thioesters support efficient protein biosynthesis by the ribosome

Congrats to the dream team of @anyadkent & @JacobGRobins + collaborators Isaac, Jess, @AlexSolivan, @NoahXHamlish, Katie, @AlannaSchepartz @MillerGroupYale @cate_lab

✨ New preprint with collaborators in @BanfieldLab!

Congrats to @v_kivenson @leahtangroe @NoahXHamlish et al on a really fascinating story (tweetorial below ⤵️) #NSFfunded
🚨 We discovered a new genetic code, "Genetic Code 34," sporadically distributed in archaea. Select archaea have genome-wide recoding of the TAG stop codon to pyrrolysine; the adoption of this code was likely driven by metabolic processes. (1/2) biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

A queen makes her comeback to report that her first-author manuscript is available as a preprint! 🥰

Come learn about BEAR next weekend at ACS Denver! And a huge thanks to WCC/Merck for hosting me 🙂
Very excited to see our work on quinoline-containing macrocyclic peptides finally posted on @ChemRxiv! Congratulations to Isaac, Taylor and everyone involved in the project!
Chemo-ribosomal synthesis of atropisomeric and macrocyclic peptides with embedded quinolines: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv… Congrats to Isaac Knudson, Taylor Dover, Diondra Dilworth, Cameron Paloutzian, and Hannah Cho, @MillerGroupYale @schepartzlab and @cgem_cci.

📰 ASAP from C-GEM in @ACSCentSci:
An exciting collaboration with our friends at Amgen and Schrödinger to demonstrate incorporation of multiple extended backbones in a protein in vivo ✨
Congrats to @NoahXHamlish and the rest of the team!

First ever @schepartzlab retreat in Sonoma. Could not have imagined a more beautiful place🙏☺️
One sketch at a time.
We are so honored to be on the cover of this month's @ACSCentSci! Kudos to @sarahsmaga and twitterless Josh who turned @AlannaSchepartz's sketch into reality 🎨 #NSFfunded
How it started // How it's going
ALT Sketches on a legal pad mimic an ACS central science cover. Squiggly lines in the background are meant to be ball-and-stick peptides with thiazoles and unnatural monomers. In the foreground, a "BIG RoP" is shown in cartoon with a thiazole in the loop.
ALT In the actual ACS Central Science cover, a stormy gray-green background is punctuated by ball-and-stick peptide models. Thiazole modifications have a slight white glow. The foreground image is a large cartoon-style Rop dimer in yellow and blue, with glowing thiazole modifications in the loops.

Fantastic story about how to deliver intact, functional, transcription factors to the nucleus.
Congratulations to our very own Kelsey Zhang for receiving the Merck Research Award from @AcsWcc! We are so excited to hear your talk at #ACSFall2022
