On Friday, September 15, 2017 the Devarenne Lab had a party at Tim’s house to celebrate the recent successful PhD defense by Mehmet and the say goodbye to Jiasen, who has been on sabbatical in the lab for the last year. Jiasen’s last day in the lab is September 26. At the party we drank Raki, a very popular drink of Turkey, Mehmet’s home country.
Mehmet Tatli Defends Thesis
Today Devarenne Lab graduate student Mehmet Tatli successfully defended his PhD thesis. Mehmet’s graduate studies focused on studying the ECM of B. braunii, and characterizing B. braunii hydrocarbons by Raman spectroscopy. Congratulations Dr. Tatli!!!
New Paper Published Describing Substrate Specificity for the B. braunii LOS Enzyme
The Devarenne Lab recently had a paper published in ACS Chemical Biology describing the amino acids that control substrate and product specificity in the LOS enzyme from the L race of B. braunii. The study details how we identified two amino acids in LOS that control the size of substrate that can fit into the active site. The study was lead by former graduate student Hem Thapa.
Method Describing ROS Detection in B. braunii Published
The Devarenne lab had another paper published based on our collaboration with the lab of Dr. Edmundo Lozoya-Gloria at CINVESTAV in Irapuato, México. The study titled “ROS detection in Botryococcus braunii colonies with CellROX Green reagent” was published in Bio-Protocol and describes the method Dr. Lozoya-Gloria’s lab developed to detect ROS production in B. braunii.
Paper Describing Raman Spectroscopy Analaysis of B. braunii Botryococcenes and Methysqualenes Published in the Journal of Molecular Structure
Today the Devarenne Lab had a paper published in the Journal of Molecular Structure detailing the structural analysis of botryococcenes and methylsqualenes from the B race of Botryococcus braunii using Raman spectroscopy. The study was lead by graduate student Mehmet Tatli.
