Thank you to my amazing collaborators and the PhD student doing the work, Sam!
Please have a read, it is a really interesting paper!

An elegant engineering strategy to perform step-wise truncations of the iron-sulfur cluster domains in semi-synthetic [FeFe] hydrogenases to investigate in detail the influence on the catalytic properties of the enzyme and the inhibitors binding!

Engineering the Electron Relay in [FeFe]-Hydrogenase Enhances Electrocatalytic H2 Evolution H2 is an ideal energy vector, but catalysts for its clean production from water are inefficient or expensive. [FeFe]-hydrogenases are the most active H2-converting catalysts in nature, using a unique ...

I couldn't be happier to see this nice piece of work out! It is like my baby project, which I dedicated a lot of time and effort!
