Excited to share my 1st first name paper from 🐅 @ajlinklab We report the ability to rearrange #RiPP precursor peptides, expanding opportunities for engineering PTMs in vitro and in cellulo including mechanically interlocked peptides 🔗 @LindemannTrust @omenndarlingbio

It's that time of year again - @cenmag Molecule of the Year! There are some fascinating molecules in there so vote for your favourite. We aren't biased of course, but there's a cool-looking cyclo[48]carbon catenane in there... cen.acs.org/sections/moty-po…
