Extraordinary opportunity to join as PhD a super network!!!!
I'm excited that this collaborative work with Alan @acartmell47.bsky.social is finally out. We have developed some powerful tools to study carbohydrate sulfatases (a tricky class of enzyme!) and shown how they can be used with enzymes from host-associated bacteria.

Happy to have this collaborative work with Zach Armstrong now out in Angewandte chemie doi.org/10.1002/anie... .
We use a linked assay, coupled with fluorescent probes, to analyse mucin active carbohydrate sulfatase kinetics, cellular location, and inhibition.

We report plate-based coupled assays to rapidly and quantitatively determine the activity and selectivity of mucin-active carbohydrate sulfatases. This fluorogenic assay further enables inhibitor ide...
Great talk by Tessa Gote from the group of @armstrongchembio.bsky.social of the @led3hub.bsky.social at #LeidenBioscience. She talked about the importance of sialic acid esterases for the virulence of S. pneumoniae and how she is working towards developing inhibitors for these enzymes.

I am particularly happy to announce that Ive been assigned an ERC AdG (PE5) to crack the LPS code. thanks to my group!!! @erc.europa.eu
