Congratulations to @Taylorlab_Chem and @kuehl_nicholas on another spectatular paper.
Our radical photocage work is out in @JACS! The photocage directly releases free CF3 radicals and enables MS-mapping of proteins w/ 1s rxns and prep-scale peptide trifluoromethylation in minutes. Impressive solo student author effort by @kuehl_nicholas! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Check out our preprint in @ChemRxiv where we develop a photocage for biomolecular trifluoromethylation. Protein-interaction mapping w/ 1 second rxn times and prep scale labelling in 5-7 minutes. Impressive solo researcher effort by @kuehl_nicholas! chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Awesome day yesterday with @aroralabnyu visiting! Great talk by and discussions with Bobby, as always. We made sure to give Bobby some local history at the Deer Park at the end of the day. In the Poe raven shadow. Quoth the @FoxGroupUD @CLGrimesLab nevermore!

Thiomethyltetrazines are reversible covalent cysteine warheads whose reversibility can be "switched off” via live cell bioorthogonal chem, providing stability to lysis/proteomics. Led by @TallonAmanda w/ @Pfizer Mary Xu, Graham West & @ChrisamEnde1 10.26434/chemrxiv-2023-w0p5m

Still excited about bioorthogonal chemistry? Check out this preprint describing ligand-directed catalysts for live-cell, photocatalytic activation of dihydrotetrazine oxidation and uncaging chemistry. Kudos @RosenbergerJE, Yixin, Fang, Xinyi and Will! chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Joining the chorus of congratulations to this amazing trio and their research groups. Special shout out to @CarolynBertozzi and her alums who are blazing so many new trails that connect chemistry with biology and medicine.
BREAKING NEWS: The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless “for the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry.”

Affinity Bioorthogonal Chemistry tags (ABC-tags) enable both protein purification and fast bioorthogonal chemistry. Succeeds at C- or N-terminus, internal positions, and can be carried out on-resin to generate multidomain proteins. Congrats Sam & Tyler! doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-20…

Check out this deep-dive into understanding the factors that influence tetrazine stability and D-A reactivity-- and how to increase the latter without compromising the former. Congrats to @MikulaLab, @Click_Chemist, and the Houk group.
