Wei Peng obtained his Ph.D. at Tsinghua University in China with Prof. Yigong Shi and Prof. Nieng Yan, where he was trained as a structural biologist using protein crystallography or cryo-EM and other tools to investigate protein functions. As a postdoc with Prof. Kim Orth at UT Southwestern Medical Center, he has discovered that the bacterial effector protein AvrB is an unprecedented glycosyltransferase (with a fold called Fido) that catalyzes the transfer of rhamnose from UDP-rhamnose to a threonine of its protein substrate.
