@NitscheLab (@ANUChemistry) & colleagues @UOsaka_en open a new chapter for bismuth in chemical biology, introducing bioactive Bi-selenopeptides with exceptional stability. Even human EGF traps two Bi atoms — removal is nearly impossible! #openaccess šŸ”“

We’ve been dreaming of this type of conjugation chemistry for years—and finally, a simple fix to a stubborn problem, all thanks to just a tiny drop of CSā‚‚. Minimalist chemistry is the new gold. ✨

@gongchenlab have been hunting for ways to crosslink two different amines for conjugation: turns out that just a drop of CSā‚‚ in air delivers great results! Read on in their Research Article: •
