Congratulations again to Chris!

Chris' paper describing two new Antigen 85C structures modified by covalent inhibitors has been accepted at ACS Infectious Diseases. This was in collaboration with Jerry Parks at Oak Ridge National Lab and Steve Sucheck at Toledo. Well done Chris.

Chris has a new paper!

Congratulations to Chris Goins and our collaborators in the Sucheck lab. Our paper describing inhibition and anti-tuberculosis activity of ebselen derivatives was published in the Journal of Organic Chemistry.

Celine is off to Harvard this summer.

Celine has been accepted for the Harvard Stem Cell Institute Internship Program this summer. Congratulations Celine and enjoy Boston.

Ronning Lab Wintersolistifest 2016!

The Ronning lab celebrated the coming of winter with their annual Wintersolstifest gathering. We ate food from around the world.

Mike Banco's paper has been published in PNAS!

Congratulations to Mike Banco. His paper describing 4 neutron/X-ray co-refined crystal structures of the Helicobacter pylori methylthioadenosine nucleosidase was accepted by PNAS and is now available on the PNAS website. We observed some intriguing hydrogen bonding and protonation patterns in these structures. It turned out to be quite an interesting story.  Paper.

November synchrotron trip

A few of us from the Ronning Group took the short drive to Argonne National Lab to collect some X-ray diffraction data. Chris had the best results from his crystals and will be writing up a paper describing his new structure over the winter break.

Welcome to the lab, Gwendal Loarer and Thanuja Sudasinghe.

The Ronning lab welcomes new graduate students, Gwendal and Thanuja, to the lab. May your pipettors always be active and your eyes always vigilant for unexpected difference density.

Welcoming Celine to the lab.

Celine Schreidah received a FYSRE award to do undergraduate research in the lab this summer. Welcome to the lab Celine. We are excited to have you join us.

Cecile wins award for her Research.

Cecile has been chosen as the recipient of a Graduate Student Association Research Award. Congrats Cecile! Nice work.

Tori will travel to North Carolina

Tori's abstract has been accepted for the NCUR to be held at UNC Asheville. Well done Tori
