Very pleased to share my first, first-author paper! Domoic acid biosynthesis in the red #seaweed Chondria armata, out in PNAS today. Immensely grateful for all of our collaborators, especially Chekan Lab, MooreLabSIO, and my amazing PI Bradley Moore. pnas.org/content/119/6/…

Many #naturalproduct compounds like #cannabinoids are made from ortho-quinine methides. Trevor Purdy April Lukowski review the ways enzymes construct this versatile and reactive biosynthetic intermediate pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Low tides = great tidepooling opportunities! 🐙🐚 During a negative low tide this week, PhD students Anaí Novoa, Danielle McHaskell, Kayla Wilson & Olívia Pereira explored the #TidePools near Scripps, where they encountered nudibranchs, octopuses, crabs, and much more. 📷Erik Jepsen

Happy to share how the #cyanotoxin aetokthonotoxin is made by toxic freshwater Cyanobacteria. Amazing enzyme work by Sanjoy Adak April Lukowski Rebecca Schafer in J. Am. Chem. Soc. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Wonderful collaborating with you @RyutaTerada to tell the story of this fascinating #seaweed that was used historically as an anthelmintic in Japan, with the name “domoic acid” deriving from the word “domoi,” the Japanese name for Chondria armata

San Diego, the location for the in-person portion of the hybrid #ACSSpring2022 meeting, is also home to scientifically relevant wildlife. Vikram Shende and Kayla Wilson discuss their work at the @MooreLabSIO Scripps Institution of Oceanography on local sea sponges: fal.cn/3n718

Scientists at Scripps, USP - Universidade de São Paulo & UC Santa Cruz have collaborated to discover & validate the enzymes responsible for production of guanitoxin—one of the most toxic & fast-acting neurotoxins associated with freshwater harmful algal blooms in lakes & ponds. scripps.ucsd.edu/news/decipheri…

Thrilled to share our latest Nature Chemical Biology publication by Immo Burkhardt Tristan de Rond P.Y.-T. Chen that #octocorals biosynthesize powerful terpenoids and have been doing it longer than in plants. These primitive animals are remarkable medicinal chemists! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our June issue (nature.com/nchembio/volum…) features a stunning array of octocorals, which the @EricSchmidtLab and MooreLabSIO found were capable of producing their own terpenoids (nature.com/articles/s4158… & nature.com/articles/s4158…).

Vanadium-dependent haloperoxidase enzymes have always fascinated us MooreLabSIO for their biosynthetic dexterity. We're delighted to finally share some beautiful structures in Biochemistry pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.102…
