Work from Jeremy Sanders’ lab has generated novel molecules that assemble and link together to tie themselves in knots.  The results, published in Science in November, represent a major step forward towards understanding the complex non-covalent chemistry that determines the assembly of larger molecules such as proteins.

Professors. Robert J. Lekowitz of Duke University & Brian K. Kobilka of Stanford have been awarded the 2012 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their studies of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).

Alessio Ciulli has been awarded a Starting Grant from the European Research Council. The five-year grant will support his group's research on druggability of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) within multisubunit and multidomain protein complexes.

Reisner group discovers that a homogeneous cobalt catalyst evolves H₂ electro- and photocatalytically under industrially relevant conditions: at room temperature, in pH-neutral water and in the presence of atmospheric O₂.
