Grab ‘n go: siderophore-binding proteins provide pathogens a quick fix to satisfy their hunger for iron! Read #FirstRxns bit.ly/2UjsDKR by @ADGallo56 & Katherine Franz @FranzLabDuke on the research by the Wencewicz Lab @WashUChem bit.ly/3df202b

Bragging about huge numbers of hours worked each week misses two important truths: -time at work doesn’t necessarily equal productivity -there is no prize for suffering the most

.@UCSB_chemistry’s graduate students recently discovered a technique to decipher siderophore's 3D structure. A better understanding this compound potentially means thwarting bacterial growth and treating certain illnesses. Findings appear in @PNASNews. ow.ly/ukWz50wGRxz

When you finish a PhD in chemistry they take you in a special room and tell you that tenure-track professorships aren't real and all professors are just really old postdocs. I am posting this at great physical risk to myself and my family. xitter.cf/ButlerLabUCSB/status/1…

Day 2 of #Metallomics2019 in Warsaw. Great opening lecture yesterday from Alison Butler @ButlerLabUCSB on the fascinating diversity generated by chirality in siderophores. And nice opening reception!

We all know that metals like iron and calcium are essential for a healthy body, but our pioneering scientists estimate that almost half of life’s processes depend upon various metals interacting with living cells. See bit.ly/2EbpRQj @DurBiol @DurhamChemistry @Durham_BSI

These are the P fluorescens SWB25 strains from @vscooper. Their siderophores fluoresce under UV. Beautiful microbiology! @univpugetsound @ASMicrobiology – at Tacoma, WA
