Latest preprint from our lab: Mis-localization of PBPs in Staphylococcus aureus gdpP mutant contributes to β-lactam resistance and surface protein cross-wall trafficking biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
SpsB is more than a signal peptidase! I'm excited of the findings in this paper and proud of the work from our team!
Signal peptidase SpsB coordinates staphylococcal cell cycle, surface protein septal trafficking, and LTA synthesis. @WYuLab journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…
Very excited to share our latest preprint: a breakthrough in surface protein trafficking that we've studied for a long time. Perhaps more important is, the beauty of synchronized cell envelope biogenesis.

Unfortunately it is still common that institutions/departments use JIF to measure the impact of individual research. Try to emphasize the impact of your research in the cover letter and research plan. I believe that real experts will appreciate your work without reference to JIF
Check out our recent editorial (direct link below). Thanks to Stephen @StephenKDolan and Lori! It was a pleasure to work with you together!
