A fully funded postdoc position is available in my lab to study the mechanism of bacterial outer membrane protein assembly. For details, please see training.nih.gov/postdoc_jobs_n…

!OUR NEW ARTICLE! I’m really proud of this study out today in Molecular Cell. These results identify an amazing novel function for an essential protein in Gram-negative bacteria called BamA. THREAD 1/n cell.com/molecular-cell…

**ONLINE NOW!** Harris Bernstein and I are delighted that our paper using Cryo-EM and in vivo assays to understand outer membrane protein folding has found a home at Cell! Cell Here is a free access link to the article: authors.elsevier.com/c/1el7UL7PXinin 1/3 cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

A fully funded postdoctoral position is available to study the assembly of bacterial outer membrane proteins, which are a "barrel" of fun! For details, please see training.nih.gov/postdoc_jobs_n…

I'm excited to be starting my lab at The University of Sydney, School of Medical Sciences! Can't wait to get our bacteriology, biochemistry, structural biology, and drug discovery up and running. Prospective students and postdocs please reach out! 🤓🔬👩‍🔬

Congratulations DDI member Dr Matthew Doyle Dr Matthew Doyle for his new publication, "Small Molecule Antibiotics Inhibit Distinct Stages of Bacterial Outer Membrane Protein Assembly"! Read here: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Hey fellow microbiologists--looks like bad germs may be even worse than we thought. science.org/content/articl…

Simply an amazing piece by the Endo, Pfanner, & Wiedemann Labs! First hybrid-barrel structure to be solved on the SAM complex. Clear divergence in the barrel assembly pathway between bacteria and mitochondria. The disulfide-crosslinking is a work of art. nature.com/articles/s4159…

I'm recruiting a Staff Scientist to contribute to our research on the bacterial outer membrane. If interested, please see the ad at hr.nih.gov/jobs/search/sc…

This is really the first attempt at trying to solve a big mystery in the T4SS field: how does a TM or multipass protein make it from bacterial cytosol to host cell. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
