It is a great pleasure to share that our extensive review on "The Chemistry and Biology of the Tetrodotoxin Natural Product Family" has been accepted for publication at Angewandte Chemie: doi.org/10.1002/anie....

I am incredibly excited that our manuscript: "A Platform for the Development of Highly Red-Shifted Azobenzene-based Optical Tools" has been accepted for publication at Angewandte Chemie: doi.org/10.1002/anie... 🤩

We are looking for a PhD candidate in medicinal / organic chemistry with a passion for drug discovery to join our young and enthusiastic team @univie.ac.at. For details, visit: jobs.univie.ac.at/job/Universi.... Reposts are very much appreciated!

We are very excited that we will be hosting the 15th International Activity Based Protein Profiling (ABPP) Meeting in Leiden in 2027. If you do not want to miss anything, make sure to follow this page to see all the information in the future.

📢 Only one more week to apply!

We have a new homepage @tum.de including The Hall of Fame of Graduates - check it out! 👇 www.mls.ls.tum.de/tnm

So cool! 🤩

Please check out our Angew. communication on DNA mimic foldamers that can outcompete DNA itself in the binding of proteins! 🧬 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

A surprise finding with interesting chemistry: protein bound zinc ions can activate Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) Thanks to a great collaboration with @aubrykmiller.bsky.social and many colleagues! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Managing to score a professorship without a Cell, Science or Nature paper.

When grant writing is become so intense that you need to procrastinate a little by posting on #ChemSky.

PI had an important conference to attend...

Voting for our new government in 🇩🇪✔️

Reposting this #molswitch #molmachine starter pack. If you want to be included in it, please let me know go.bsky.app/EwimNbK

The "Fluorescent Probes, Sensors and Fluorophores" starter pack got substantial additions worth a new look. Please raise you hand 👋 in the replies if you want to be added too. go.bsky.app/MtgJE4w

We had the pleasure to host @dbkonrad.bsky.social today for a @unisyscat.bsky.social Colloquium! Thanks for the great scientific discussion, David! 🤩

What do you think about matching tattoos @dirktrauner.bsky.social?

Dear #ChemSky, I have an important question: Do I need to tattoo a permanent version of my PhD thesis onto my back?

Very excited to share our review on "The Chemistry and Biology of the Tetrodotoxin Natural Product Family", where we discuss their potential for the development of analgesics, structure-activity relationships on NaV channels, biosynthetic hypotheses and chemical syntheses: tinyurl.com/ye6nwnwu.

Very happy to share that SURF, our data format for chemical reactions, has been published by Molecular Informatics! SURF is a machine-readable reaction format that helps to bridge the gap between chemistry, data, and AI. Link: doi.org/10.1002/minf....

Today, we report a role for hypoxia in brown adipocyte differentiation and function via hypoxia-induced miRNAs, so called hypoxomirs - when cells consume lots of oxygen - like brown fat cells - does that cause a hypoxia-like response? The answer is YES - www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26...

Very excited to see our work on photoswitchable menthol (AzoM) to control the cold receptor TRPM8 published! Our chemical probe allowed the analysis of current kinetics, and the roles of individual amino acids in channel gating, AzoM binding and the modulation by PIP2. Link: doi.org/10.1002/anie....

Only 12 days left in 2024... Time to plan for next year! Please, save the date and join us for the meeting of the GBM Redox Biology Study Group @gbmev.bsky.social #redox #ros #signalling

The next development in photopharmacology (and "photogastronomy"). Controlling the Menthol Receptor TRPM8 with light! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Only a few days left until the winter break 🙈😅
