#UWaterloo professor, Dr. @ChristianEuler, is transforming CO2 into bio-made and eco-friendly products. Euler and his business partner Vikram Pandit founded @PhycusB, which produces the first bio-based glycolic acid. More: https://t.co/04EbjbyoPw
Well everyone who needs to know now knows, so I can publicly announce that I'm starting as an Assistant Professor of Bioengineering at @uwaterloo_che in January! Very excited to get to work on circular economy through precision fermentation! Stay tuned for more info ๐

@ADHansonLab@KalexandrovAU@claudiaevickers I would say dynamic transitions may not be observable using a flux sensor as we described, but these sensors are likely useful for seeing and comparing fluxes between steady states (e.g. carbon source 1 vs carbon source 2)
@ADHansonLab@KalexandrovAU@claudiaevickers We assumed perturbations to flux would occur more quickly than changes to expression. The flux readout provided by a concentration would be about a given steady state. But as long as the enzymes operate in the linear range, small changes to expression OK.
@ADHansonLab@KalexandrovAU@claudiaevickers Compartmentalization is definitely a factor to consider. As we showed, is probably responsible for malate and citrate being bad flux sensors in orgs with mitochondria
