Super happy to see this out! Thank you to all current and previous @traivio and Glover lab people for making this project possible. An especially big shoutout to my talented co-author Cameron Murray for providing indispensable expertise and insight. 🔬🦠 jbc.org/article/S0021-9258%2…

Why do Pseudomonas aeruginosa have not one, but two MlaA-like proteins? Turns out that one protein is part of a classic maintenance of lipid asymmetry pathway while the other joins forces with a periplasmic phospholipase!

New! Gram- cells need lipoproteins to build their surface. LolA & LolB deliver these in E.coli. But many species only have LolA - where's LolB? For Caulobacter, LolB is... LolA! It's a bifunctional protein! We can even tweak E.coli LolA to do double duty! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.22…

I’m excited to share our historical perspective on the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria! Here, we dive into the experiments that have built our understanding of outer membrane structure, function, and biogenesis. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

A review I co-wrote on ESRs with my talented labmate @kpick97 (and the one and only @traivio) is finally out! It's a chonker but we hope it becomes a useful resource for people to learn about these key bacterial systems!

Today, we’re introducing a new model that eliminates accept/reject decisions.
By publishing every paper with eLife reviews as a Reviewed Preprint, we plan to restore autonomy to authors, ensuring that they will be judged by what, not where, they publish. elifesciences.org/inside-eli…

Our preprint on how lipoprotein-OMP complexes mediate signaling from the outer membrane was just uploaded to bioRxiv! Give it a read if you got some time.

Over at @eLife, we’re eliminating accept/reject decisions and relinquishing the traditional journal role of gatekeeper.
This new model is our move towards a fairer system that helps researchers get recognition for what, not where they publish. Read more: elifesciences.org/articles/8…

Busy on the Caulobacter project with @LaskerKeren -- I worked up the cell wall this morning. First time doing an S-layer! Wow! It's still missing the soluble periplasmic proteins and all the inner membrane proteins at the condensate.
