I'm thrilled to shared my very first scientific publication 🥳 MctB and CtpV are two transmembrane proteins from M.Tuberculosis. In this work the two proteins were used as antigens in a new thermostable vaccine formulation. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
In this work, in collaboration with the Gassensmith Lab, two transmembrane proteins from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis were reconstituted into proteoliposomes and tested as the antigens in a new vaccine formulation. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
The proteoliposomes were coated in a MOF shell to confer the vaccines with thermo and chemical stability. The results are promising to address the global burden of Tuberculosis disease.
Congratulations to Jonathan Martinez-Garcia (@Jony_Chem) and Dr Sneha Kumari (@Snekumari) , as well as to all authors!
Congratulations to Jonathan Martínez (@Jony_Chem ) for receiving the ACS Pride Merck Graduate Research Award!
Congratulations to the seven 2025 ACS Pride Merck Graduate Research Award recipients! Read more here: tinyurl.com/MerckPROF
Stay tuned for more information as the seven will speak at the 2025 ACS Spring Meeting in San Diego.

ALT Seven headshots of the 2025 recipients of the ACS Pride Merck Graduate Research Award are shown on a tan background with their names, pronounces, and institution are displayed. Additionally, the Merck green and gray name logo are shown under the "sponosred by" byline. The ACS PROF Divsion and Pride subdivision logos are also on the graphic.

Our paper on the catalytic prenyl conjugate additions for synthesis of enantiomerically enriched PPAPs is out today in @ScienceMagazine
Great collaboration with @HoveydaLab & @pengliu_group

I had the absolute pleasure of presenting my work at the #ACSFall2024 meeting, and am glad to be the recipient of the ACS Biological Chemistry Travel Grant.
It was an absolute thrill meeting our #ACSDBC student awardees for #ACSFall2024! Excellent science all around!

Congratulations to our student travel awardees for #ACSFall2024! The #ACSDBC helps sponsor #gradstudents and #postdocs to travel to each @AmerChemSociety meeting to present their research in BIOL sessions. Check here and our website to learn more: divbiolchem.org/news/47zplso…
We had a terrific time in Colorado! Congratulations to Madujika, Fernando, Humera, Luciano and Mitchell who gave great talks and posters presentations! #ACSFall2024
#ACSFall2024 is just around the corner and we hope you can attend some of the talks and poster presentations that some of our lab members will deliver in Denver!
The latest book chapter from our group is finally out! Here, we describe our fluorescence-based method to study real time transport of transition metals in proteoliposomes. Congrats to Mitchell, Rose, Humera and Madujika who led this work!!
