This is such a neat idea from the @narayanlab.bsky.social and the @hartwiggroup.bsky.social now in #JACSasap fooling enzymes with a removable binding ligand to accept non-native substrates #ChemSky
Site-, Stereo-, and Chemoselective Enzymatic Halogenation of Terpenoids by a Substrate Masquerade
Enzymatic halogenation of C–H bonds is a promising approach to synthesize chlorine-containing compounds. However, few halogenases chlorinate C(sp3)–H bonds of molecules lacking a carrier protein, and ...

You can always expect something cool from @hartwiggroup.bsky.social and this one is no exception. Cu-catalyzed borylation of waste PVC creates strong adhesives for glass and metal - 5x more than commercial glue! #Chemsky

![The situation for science in the U.S. is terrible. How should I put this because I don’t want to make everybody flee our country, but I do think it needs to be clear to the public. They’re not funding grants from the National Institutes of Health, including in backdoor ways, like blocking committees from meeting that make decisions about the grants. I have three post-doctoral students who have fellowship applications that are not even being reviewed.
I also have a $3.5 million grant that was recommended for funding, for plastics recycling. There’s been a “communications pause.” I don’t know if it’ll still go forward, or maybe it never gets funded. [If that happens] we wouldn’t have the opportunity to try to pursue the commercial viability of this chemical recycling that we developed and that others would be able to contribute to.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lzukhqfwrcaldtsdjftgpqts/bafkreiauqddi7sysycf4qnqez3rgq23ewrspmbddraju5qnnk6gty3zxym@jpeg)
