Does improving DFT calculations through empirical dispersion correction come at a price? In this #compchem study we examine the extent to which it compromises the underlying physics in order to achieve energetic reproducibility for certain systems 👇
17 Aug 2023
After focusing on #manybody interactions & #delocalization errors in #DFT in the past, we explore the balance between physical interpretability & energetic predictability in dispersion-corrected functionals. Toward #RightAnswersForRightReasons 😎 👉 doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv-20… 1/2

It may come as a surprise how little scientists understand about the intricacies of host-microbe interactions in your oral cavity. Researchers including Professors Barbara Imperiali and Laura Kiessling (@ChemicalBiology) are trying to change that. chemistry.mit.edu/chemistry-…

All thanks to @MITBiology for sharing this story to the community! Honored to be a part of this challenging project. #glycotime
Everything you breathe, chew, or drink interacts with your oral cavity—the proteins and the microbes, including microbes that can harm us. In a study recently published by PNAS, a collaborative effort expands our understanding of oral cavity homeostasis biology.mit.edu/probe-expand…

💧💧#SALIVA💧💧 Fresh off the press. ZG16B, an abundant protein in saliva got its function revealed. Very glad, @Ruhl_Lab could contribute to this study with @sgbiochem, Barbara Imperiali’s lab, @KiesslingGroup, @CLGrimesLab, and Hervé Tettelin. #glycotime pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.22…

Thrilled for this to finally be out! Huge shout out to all of our collaborators on this, but especially @sgbiochem for her amazing work on this project. This was my first project when I started at MIT, I'm lucky to have had the opportunity to work with such an awesome team!
What does the most abundant human lectin (ZG16B) in our mouths bind? @ScienceMIT study spearheaded by @sgbiochem finds it interacts with common commensals ( an oral mucin). Such a fun collaboration of @KiesslingGroup, Imperiali, and Ruhl groups pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.22… #glycotime

I was not in Twitter at that time, but honored to see this post from @MITBiology. This made my weekend! Thanks for the constant support from the community. #biochemistry #viperin #antiviral
Congrats to Imperiali lab postdoc Soumi Ghosh and her PhD mentor Neil Marsh @MichiganChem on their new @jbiolchem paper! They review the structure and catalytic activity of the viperin enzyme, which plays an important role in the innate immune response: bit.ly/33WpBTf
