Really excited to be sharing our newest work on the bacterial Tol-Pal complex! The amazing @yeowjiang solved cryo-EM structures of the TolQRA complex in 2 rotary states, aiding us to come up with a model for force transduction across the cell envelope! #SGBUG @SCELSE_SG @ChemNUS

We are back for #SGBUG for Oct, with Shaun Tan from Benson Chen's grp at @ASTARsg, and Jason Chen from Chris Sham's grp at @IDTRP_NUSMed, sharing about genetic manipulation in gut commensals, and glycoengineering in S. pneumoniae, respectively!

If you are attending the Great Wall Symposium happening this week in Sicily, do check out @WeiChuenPoh's poster on very interesting TolB variants he has found, which might help us think deeper about the function of the bacterial Tol-Pal complex! Poster 93!!
