Energy from air? No problem! In our new preprint, we reconstitute the machinery that allows microbes to endure starvation. By using the trace amounts of hydrogen in air alone, they produce plenty of chemical energy (2 ATP) to get by. The only byproduct? Water. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🚧Check out the preprint of a story I was involved in, lead by Lars Schäfer and Thomas Happe 🚧
We found that an additional cysteine in [FeFe]-hydrogenase enhances the flexibility of a conserved loop and facilitates the formation of an O2-insensitive cofactor state.

Happy to share that I start my own group at Uppsala University funded by Swedish Vetenskapsradet and Novonordisk foundation.🙏
Related to this we search for a PhD student with interest in the structure function relationship of enzymatic H2 catalysis. 👇👇👇
