Fun having our research with @FilipPetegem on gut bacteria featured live today on The Evan Bray Show on CKOM, Saskatoon. The @CanLightSource at @Usask continues to be an invaluable resource for Canadian science. @ubcmsl @UBCChem @UBCbiochemistry iono.fm/e/1504090

Bert & his team called this a pedal bin mechanism... because of the SusD lid opening and closing - as Simon Newstead (@inwardopen) said in @JBR_White's viva "It's more like a flushing toilet!"

Great to see another favorite @CAZyDB family, GH31, getting the subfamily treatment, also using @ahvdk 's excellent tool, SSNpipe. Kudos to @sjwill99, @NicolasTerrapon, @ethangbaus, and team. #SequenceSimilarityNetworks doi.org/10.1016/j.jbc.2023.1…

Yay! The last installment of Hila's endo-glucanase 16 work is out in @PlantDirectJ. Great collab. w/ the Mansfield, Samuels, and Pauly labs. @ubcmsl @ubcforestry @UBCBotany @HHU_de Long story short: We still don't really know what these enzymes do in vivo! doi.org/10.1002/pld3.482

Never heard of Copper Radical Oxidases before? Check out our new review from @ubcmsl in #EssaysinBiochemistry (@PPPublishing) as a primer. These enzymes have a deep biochemical/mechanistic history and newfound roles in fungal, bacterial, & plant biology: doi.org/10.1042/EBC20220124

How can we protect food crops from #fungal diseases? Researchers including @jgberrin and @KbYasuyuki have identified a pair of enzymes that primes fungal pathogens for plant infection that could open new avenues for preventing disease and protecting crops. scim.ag/Yy

Proud to be part of this stellar work led by our colleagues @BBF_lab (@jgberrin, @LafondMichael3, @BastienBissaro) and @KbYasuyuki on the critical role of a Copper Radical Oxidase/Peroxidase enzyme pair in fungal phytopathogenesis.

Hot-of-the press !! Excited to share our last study, in which we reveal a new plant infection mechanism involving fungal metalloenzymes! (1/n)
