Congrats @JilongQ on putting together the good story and rewriting the widely held view, outside of the sugar community, that surface polysaccharides are merely an accessory component. It had been important to the sugar and bacterial evolution community, and now, far beyond that.

The original paradigm regarding the special status of the initial sugar still holds true, and I suspected this may be related to how the several membrane proteins, including the flippase and initial transferase, physically interact—another rabbit hole in polysaccharide synthesis

@IslaMyxoLab @JBacteriology @ASMicrobiology Epic, congratulations Salim.

Congratulations Rachna, love that winged HTH and the model!

Very happy to see this heroic attempt to crystalise Wzx flippase from the Naismith and Whitfield groups finally out, was involved in heterologous overexpressing part of it 12 years ago, so emotionally damaged that I shifted to soluble proteins eversince.

@SteveOhfromOZ @StephenMcc33084 @GlobalXInt @Locati0ns You probably meant Uyghurs, as there is a lot of propaganda from both China and the West. One has to visit the region to judge fairly. It doesn't seem like you care much, though, given the misspelling. Nonetheless, as someone who grew up in Australia, you’ve swung the wrong bat.
