All thanks to @MITBiology for sharing this story to the community! Honored to be a part of this challenging project. #glycotime.
Everything you breathe, chew, or drink interacts with your oral cavity—the proteins and the microbes, including microbes that can harm us. In a study recently published by PNAS, a collaborative effort expands our understanding of oral cavity homeostasis

I was not in Twitter at that time, but honored to see this post from @MITBiology. This made my weekend! Thanks for the constant support from the community. #biochemistry #viperin #antiviral.
Congrats to Imperiali lab postdoc Soumi Ghosh and her PhD mentor Neil Marsh @MichiganChem on their new @jbiolchem paper! They review the structure and catalytic activity of the viperin enzyme, which plays an important role in the innate immune response:
