Structural and electronic modulations of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) upon chitin binding: insights from X-ray spectroscopy Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) play a critical role in the depolymerization of recalcitrant polysaccharides, such as chitin, making them of interest in biotechnological applications. Thes...

Really happy to share our recent publication on LPMO metalloenzymes, with new mechanistic insights into these fascinating copper enzymes. And the paper was selected for the back cover.

Had a wonderful to visit Uppsala University for the first time. First day was the Tiselius symposium, followed by the Department of Chemistry seminar the next day. Thanks for the invite. Needless to say lots of wonderful discussions too.

2nd time doing soft X-ray measurements at BESSY II. Exciting to be at one of the best Synchrotrons for soft X-ray science!

Great to see the visual plans for the BESSY III upgrade. Brings back memories of being part of the workshop discussions last year.
