I'm not much on twitter nowadays but if you're interested in high-throughput #proteomics and #cyanobacteria take a look at our most recent paper in @PlantPhys.
W/ @F_Schneidmadel and @SynBioJazz

Great to catch up @BlueGreenDR after so many years. Keeping the cyano proteomics mission going! @sheffielduni #cyanobacteria

Come do a PhD in Sheffield with @SyngentaUK , constructing co-cultures of microbes for making novel bioactives

Why did chloroplasts retain some genes from their free-living ancestors rather than transferring all of them to the nucleus following endosymbiosis?
Possibly, mRNA targeting explains gene retention in chloroplasts? sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Finally out! EXCRETE, our MS workflow for high throughout microbial exoproteomics with a focus here on cyanobacteria 🦠

very excited to share my recent collab with @SynBioJazz, @fmeierX, @oliinyk_denys. Here we take a deep dive into the exoproteome of cyanobacteria with our MS workflow EXCRETE. It’s fast, cheap and only needs a couple of hundred microlitres. Take a look:

What a great and inspiring meeting! Our ICRC2024 @CeBiTec Algae Biotech conference is coming to an end. Thanks to the Chairs @Kylelauersen and EonSeon Jin and all participants! See you again in three years at @unibielefeld

Our @CeBiTec conference on microalgae biotech just started at @unibielefeld. Great honor to host 100 algae experts from 16 countries and 4 continents in Bielefeld!

Incredibly proud to share this work, almost 6 years in the making, out in @ScienceMagazine!!! 🎇
We've known for over a century that eukaryotes of all kinds anticipate the seasons (think: hibernation, flowering, reproduction), but what about bacteria?🦠

Great collaboration with @DittmannElke. Here we show that Nostoc are happy to have bacteria around but not everything is rosy in their relationship.. read more to find out!

#Bacterial acquisition of #zinc. @Ignacio_Luque_R @cyanofur &co reveal that a previously unstudied exoprotein from #cyanobacteria is an ancient system for Zn2+ acquisition that has been well conserved for billions of years #PLOSBiology plos.io/3PkyfBU

Why do some cyanobacteria start secreting nitrite when they encounter carbon limitation, how is this controlled and what does it have to do with a previously unknown gene thought to give rise to the non-coding RNA Ncr1071? New in Nature Communication: rdcu.be/dz3zS.
