We are excited to share our cover-featured review in @angew_chem Novit! Fantastic work by @Lenard_Saile on acylations across biology, chemistry, and in between. Why nature choose acyl phosphates? Coupling reactivity with confinement may hold the answer. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

We found a peptide that forms amyloid fibers—the types associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Although the exact pathway is unknown, a complication is that these fibers grow autocatalytically—once a fiber is formed, it helps form new ones. tinyurl.com/54x79mxz

Super happy to see our paper published in @J_A_C_S!! ACAs can be used as building blocks for transient supramolecular polymers which can be characterized via DOSY NMR over time. Thanks to all the authors! @S__DI_STEFANO @gianfry_il_prof @SupRaLabRome and Laura Baldini

We are happy to share our article, now published in @J_A_C_S!🎉Leaving groups that do not really leave! Congrats to Arti for showing that phosphate leaving groups persist after amide bond formation, affecting the supramolecular properties of the system. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

🚨📢Improving the photoswitching properties of N-alkyl imines, out now in @J_A_C_S 🤔Insights from our previous work led @GalliumWu, Lasse, and I to tune the properties of these N-alkyl systems🛠️, where we also observed isomer-dependent fluorescence!💡🔦🚥 doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5c02404
