🚨 Our stellar postdoc (w/ Stolper Lab) @GroppJonathan posted his first preprint! His work resolves a long-standing conundrum in the field of geobiology by showing how the biochemistry of methanogenesis impacts the isotope composition of biogenic methane!

Methanogens ❤️ MCR, but how much do they really need? 🤔 Our postdoc Gray Chadwick & grad student Gavin Dury titrated MCR expression to test the hypothesis that MCR catalyzes the growth rate-limiting step of methanogenesis in their new preprint! 🤓 Read: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Thrilled to share that our paper on MCR assembly was published @PNASNews: pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.1073/pn…
So proud to share the newest pre-print from our lab: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
A tour de force co-led by postdocs Gray and Aaron @aaronjoinerphd, in collaboration with Sangeetha Ramesh and Prof. Doug Mitchell at UIUC. Turns out it takes a village to do great science (& build MCR!)

Congratulations to Ursula W. Goodenough, a professor emerita of biology, and William B. McKinnon, a professor of earth and planetary sciences, both in @WUSTLArtSci. They have been elected to the National Academy of Sciences.

TGIF! A new preprint out from our superstar postdoc @electro_microbe w/ collabs @Keyiiiiing & @lab_sje!
Our fave heptaheme cytochrome, MmcA, takes the stage to tell us more about its role in e- transport to membrane bound & extracellular acceptors!

105 attendees, 60 presentations, 22 institutes - the 1st #NorCalGeobio symposium rocked! 😆 CONGRATS to the amazing student/postdoc presenters, esp. the 1st timers, and THANKS to the awesome student organizers. See you next year! @amanda_semler @pulkitsingh97 @NSF @stanforddoerr

We're so excited for a fellow #chlamy -ologist, Ursula Goodenough. She has a new book,"Sacred Depths of Nature", that can be preordered via Oxford University Press or Amazon with more info in this link: sacreddepthsofnature.com/inf…. It's set to be released in Feb 2023. Congrats!

Single celled, methane-producing Archaea generate nearly 70% of the methane gas released into the atmosphere. Insights into the role of c-type cytochromes may reveal how. elifesciences.org/digests/76…

Presenting our lab's first research article: elifesciences.org/articles/7…. This work marks a tour de force by two incredible scientists @electro_microbe and @KShalvarjian. Congrats!!

“These microbes are fixing and sequestering carbon dioxide and they can both ‘eat’ electricity and perform photoferrotrophy."

Congratulations Professor Doudna! See you at the ceremony! #Livestream @NobelPrize🏆#GoBears! @berkeleyMCB @doudna_lab @igisci
Take a look at Jennifer Doudna's Nobel Prize medal!
Doudna received her #NobelPrize yesterday at her home in Berkeley, California, USA.
Tomorrow you will be able to watch a clip from her ceremony at the Nobel Prize award ceremony - stay tuned.

Congrats to @WUSTLdbbs's own @realelectromom, recipient of a $1M grant from @NSF for a study on the process of extracellular electron uptake (EEU) that may mean improvements in sustainable biofuels and bioplastics. Well done!

Tired of transforming Streptomyces one plasmid at a time? Here we (Blodgett lab) show multiple integrating plasmids can be transformed in a single experiment via conjugation. Congrats to authors! bit.ly/36TAAM7 @WUSTLdbbs @WUSTLBio @SIMB_Microbio @ActinoBase
