Chemistry Professor at the Univ. of Oregon. Track & field, gardening, tea & photography enthusiast. Tweets = own. Research group: @PluthGroup
Joined June 2016
This year I decided to get back in the lab, re-learn how to do chemistry, and get a new project off the ground. Here’s what I’ve been up to. Thanks @PluthGroup members for all the help! More soon 🧑🔬
Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is the newest gasotransmitter & a key protic small molecule bioregulator. We developed a platform approach to develop & deploy biocompatible responsive chemical tools for HCN delivery. Check out Mike's paper in @angew_chem! https://t.co/317Xe9GFdw

Looking forward to learning about all the roles sulfur plays in microorganisms this week at #ISMSM6 & sharing @PluthGroup sulfur chemical biology on Wed (may sneak in some Se chemistry as if S wasn't complicated enough!)

@uoCHandBIC grad students do great things.
Students from @EugeneSciCntr joined @uoadse & @uowgs this weekend to learn the Central Dogma! Lots of excitement as we extracted DNA from cheek cells and strawberries🍓! Thanks to @uowgs for funding and to Malvika for prepping modules and leading our group of amazing volunteers!

Well, I don't know about 'weird', but definitely agree with 'little'! 😜 Nice paper from @RedoxDKFZ & highlight from 'In the Pipeline'
"In the Pipeline" @ScienceMagazine: Derek Lowe reflects on “Weird Little Sulfur Groups”, inspired by our new paper on protein persulfidation @nchembio
