Finally out. Our study on the amination network is published. In this work, we investigate and engineer the E. coli amine metabolism by employing growth coupled selection in a glutamate auxotroph strain. Thanks to @SteffenNLindner and all contributors! doi.org/10.7554/eLife.77492

Not The Nine O'clock News I wanted to share because so many of my twits sent me this after my post earlier this week. A brilliant spoof of my interview over the controversy we caused with Life of Brian. Rowan's portrayal of Mervyn Stockwood is absolutely spot on.

We are moved by the heartwarming reactions coming from all over the globe. We have opened a condolence book where you may share memories and thoughts with his close friends, family, our group and the scientific community: bit.ly/condolences-arren
Our lab has faced the greatest loss imaginable. To us Arren was a mentor, a supervisor, a friend and the head of a family. We are shocked and speechless. Our thoughts are with everyone who got to know this unique genius. He will be sorely missed.

Soon some old fluorochemicals will be phased-out due to environmental and health concerns, so firefigthers, electrical industry etc. need novel bioproduced fluorochemicals with superb properties. This is what our SinFonia project aims at: cen.acs.org/environment/pers…

Vision paper 'On the case for biotech on Mars' in Nature Biotech: nature.com/articles/s41587-0…, not many revolutionary points, but they mention methanol as carbon source for bioproduction on Mars! Consider formate as well? Methanol needs a bit more chemical catalysis steps to be made!
