Doctor Gavin Rustin we salute you
Check out our latests work in collaboration with @Taylorlab_Chem ! We evaluated their biomolecular photocaged trifluormethylation reagent on small molecules, finding it effected the rapid trifluoromethylation of diverse aromatics, including several APIs. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Check out our latest work in Nature Comm! Distinct structural features in IDH1 mutants drive their unique catalytic profiles and lead to differences in an allosteric pocket that may impact inhibitor resistance. A great collaboration with Huxford and Cooksy labs here at @SDSU!
Replying to @The_Sohl_Lab
@The_Sohl_Lab show mutants of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1, an enzyme implicated in various cancers, have distinct catalytic and structural features that drive oncometabolite production. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Jim, a member of the @GustafsonLab, cultivated a positive & inclusive environment in the organic chem labs. He would lead short meditation sections to get students in a good state of mind each lab period & was a sounding board for students to discuss their experiences at SDSU.

Led by the Shao group at @UofOklahoma, we extended the idea of energy decomposition analysis to QM/MM free energy calculations for enzyme-catalyzed reactions recently. Great pleasure to be part of this work: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…

With a week to grieve, the unexpected loss of our treasured collaborator Doug Grotjahn still hurts. Doug was a luminary in every sense & built an incredible foundation for organic and organometallic chem at @SDSU @SDSUChemBiochem. RIP friend.

Our radical photocage work is out in @JACS! The photocage directly releases free CF3 radicals and enables MS-mapping of proteins w/ 1s rxns and prep-scale peptide trifluoromethylation in minutes. Impressive solo student author effort by @kuehl_nicholas! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Passage of AB 656 gives @SDSU and the @calstate system the long-overdue ability to independently offer applied and professional doctoral degrees. This is a win for our students, faculty and the region’s workforce development. 🔗 Read: bit.ly/3Fbkb89
