It works ok in cyanobacteria bit decreases a bit frequency of recombination whem compared to the same total homology (750bp each side)

iron toxicity model
New preprint: eukaryotic origins! 🥁
We propose that iron -not oxygen- may have delayed the rise of complex life. Our model reframes the “oxygen delay” puzzle: the gap between atmospheric O2 and early eukaryotic fossils may reflect iron-mediated stress, not for O2:

The nitroplast: A nitrogen-fixing organelle
A bacterial endosymbiont of marine algae evolved to an organelle
Move over mitochondria, a new organelle called the nitroplast is here.
In a Science study last year, researchers reported that a nitrogen-fixing organelle has been identified in a marine alga.

Dihydroxyacetone phosphate generated in the chloroplast mediates the activation of TOR by CO2 and light
Light and CO2 activate the eukaryotic TOR kinase through the central metabolite dihydroxyacetone phosphate.
Glad to share our latest paper published in Science Advances! In this work, we show that #light and #CO₂ regulate #TOR through cytoplasmic #dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), revealing a key metabolic link in TOR signaling.@ibvf-sevilla.bsky.social @science.org science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adu1240

It is expressed constitutively? For plastocyanin (which is also a blue copper protein) copper is added once you have biomass and induce expression of the protein for better yields

azurin is probably periplasmic. have you clone the leader peptide? it might be better to add copper once you have some biomass

Okay, nerds, buckle in!
It's time for some SCIENCE.
Back in the late 1960s, a scientist got some government funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Atomic Energy Commission to look for interesting bacteria living in extreme environments.

I currently have two fully-funded PhD opportunities in my lab - both providing a chance to work on the incredible LEAF data set that we have been collecting the last couple of years (220 children followed longitudinally from 10-30 months on measures of attention and early EF). Please share!

Cyanobacteria are some of the most abundant organisms on the planet. New research shows that silvery bridges link three, four, and sometimes 10 of the photosynthetic cells together. https://buff.ly/3Pqe7xN
