Sorry about the long wait, but we think it is better long term. PLEASE repost/tell your friends! 0711

yushuchen.bsky.social @yushuchen.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Thrilled to see this work finally published! It started in 2016 as my first PhD project. Went down a few rabbit holes and eventually wrapped up the story. It was really surprising to see lipid-bound Pks13 on whole-cell lysate SDS-PAGE. Thank Shu Sin @figlegend.bsky.social for the continuous support! 020

TB is the world's deadliest infectious disease even though it's curable (1,250,000 dead in 2023). 2. The global burden is growing even as deaths (slowly) decrease. 3.
