Check out the new paper Angewandte Chemie by Ferrier's "Fungal Factories" team! They described the full biosynthetic pathway that delivers the structurally complex Nodulisporic acid A, a potent insecticide, and related compounds.

Glad to see this paper out in press Journal of Biological Chemistry🎉great teamwork😊using MD simulations and experiments we studied dynamics and allostery in a bacterial enzyme key for Leu biosynthesis. MD simulations ran NeSI, SAXS Australian Synchrotron, funding Marsden Fund. jbc.org/article/S0021-…
