Excited to share a main project from my PhD, out now in @NatureComms! 📝
We've designed and brought to life the “CORE cycle” – a new-to-nature pathway that provides a novel route for biological CO2 capture 🦠🌱

Take a look! Thread below... 🧵

🌿🔬How can we fix #CO2 more efficiently in biological systems? Our new study introduces the CORE cycle, a synthetic pathway that converts CO2 to formate at aerobic conditions and ambient CO2 levels! 🚀🦠 @erblabs @mpi_marburg nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
I’m deeply grateful to my PhD advisors @erblabs and @wethebarevenlab, who enabled this work and helped shaping the team around it.
📖 Read the full story here, and let us know what you think:

New research from GAIN4CROPS compares alternative pathways to photorespiration—a metabolic process that reduces plant efficiency & crop yields.
A key finding: Carbon-fixing pathways like TaCo are the most promising ones.

Top 4 things to know about doing science:
1. You need to have someone you can talk to
2. One-on-one discussions are the best
3. Think about discussions as improvisations and use the ‘yes, and’ rule
4. Create a safe space so both of you feel open to saying seemingly silly things

How to get a slow enzyme 🐌 to perform new tricks🏃 ? @mirbachh, @p__wichmann @erblabs, @AriSatanowski and colleagues have developed a new-to-nature #enzyme for efficient conversion of #CO2 into valuable products via AcetylCoA. 🌿🧪 #SynBio

Paper alert! 🎉
Excited to share this collaboration from my PhD time @wethebarevenlab and @erblabs!
We built a new bridge in central metabolism, connecting acetyl-CoA and pyruvate via a novel, engineered pathway.
For some personal highlights, come along 🧵

12/ I’m extremely grateful to my co-first authors @mirbachh and @p__wichmann for bringing this pathway to life together. Make sure to head over to the thread by @mirbachh for more angles to our story, with a fabulous drawing of our LCM-E.coli:

Lets talk about #acetyl-CoA! As central molecule in C1 metabolism, the efficiency of its assimilation determines yields. Read below about our Lcm as novel activity in the shortest O2 tolerant route to make pyruvate from acetyl-CoA while fixing #CO2!

13/ Curious about our methodology, future applications and evolved enzyme mutants? Check out the paper below.
We'd love to hear your thoughts!
