Neeraja’s paper “Antibiotic that inhibits trans-translation blocks binding of EF-Tu to tmRNA to tRNA” was accepted at mBio. Co-authors from the Keiler lab are John Alumasa and Michael Vazquez. Another exciting paper from our collaboration with the Dunham lab at Emory!
Proteomics announced the acceptance of a manuscript by Melissa Vazquez-Hernandez in the Bandow group at Ruhr University in Bochum, “Physiology of trans-translation in Bacillus subtilis”. Stephanie Leedom was a contributing author. Great work Melissa and Stephanie!
Hannah won Second Place in the Physical Sciences category at the Penn State Undergraduate Exhibition for her poster titled “Ribosome rescue inhibitors are new antibiotics that kill Streptococcus mitis”. Awesome performance!
