Looking forward a new job to go with a New Year?! Opportunity for a chemical biologist to join our team - applications close on Monday
Do take a read, especially if you're interested in #peptides, #covalentdrugs, #geneticcodereprogramming #argininedeiminases or #citrullination
Thanks to coauthors Ewen Calder and Simone Kunzelmann and to everyone else that contributed!

🚨 We managed to sneak a last paper over the line in 2024 🚨
Congratulations to Issy Mathiesen on her first publication 🥳.
In it we adapt the mRNA-display technique RaPID to directly screen for covalent peptide inhibitors of peptidyl arginine deaminase 4 (PADI4).

This will be an exciting new collaboration with @drglycoben.bsky.social, Steve Sacks (KCL) & Subho Mukhopadhyay (KCL)
Start date 3rd March 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.

🚨Looking to recruit a postdoc chemist/chemical biologist to join an exciting translational collaboration. Funded by Kidney Research UK we aim to develop new peptide-based therapeutics to alleviate innate immune complications in transplanted kidneys through preventing ischemia-reperfusion injury.🚨
For my 1st post I'm pleased to share results of a fab collaboration with the Christophorou Lab (Babraham Insitute) - now in print!
We develop a set of cyclic peptide tools to explore the cellular function of PAD4/PADI4 - let us know if you'd like to try them out.
