PhD trying to improve Carbon Fixation in #Chlamy ! #synBio @erblabs
Interested in synthetic and natural carbon fixation approaches to enhance photosynthesis
So very happy to share our preprint for the main work of both our PhDs ! Check out Rene's thread to learn about the tools we developed for #chloroplast engineering and how we use them to test a photorespiratory bypass in #Chlamydomonas !!
Very excited to share the preprint of a big chapter of my PhD, where I am corresponding & shared first author (together with @gitanguy) about advancing #chloroplast#synbio through high-throughput plastome engineering of #Chlamydomonas:

New in Nature Communications: Our study uncovers how green algae coordinate the CO₂-concentrating mechanism and photorespiration during low CO₂ acclimation. This has implications for oceanic carbon cycling. 1/4

Happy to share our story on evolution of protein quaternary structure!
We discover an astounding variation in assembly across evolutionary timescales contrasted by strong functional conservation suggesting a significant role of non-adaptive processes https://t.co/81PXFUJqyc

Lets talk about #acetyl-CoA! As central molecule in C1 metabolism, the efficiency of its assimilation determines yields. Read below about our Lcm as novel activity in the shortest O2 tolerant route to make pyruvate from acetyl-CoA while fixing #CO2!

Excited to share our latest preprint!
Proteomic analysis of the pyrenoid-traversing membranes of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii reveals novel components https://t.co/k8w79anycc
Thrilled to share our latest preprint on how Chlamy acclimates to light stress under day-night cycles! We provide a genome-wide view of the central dogma, correlate changes in thylakoid membranes with the lipidome, track photodamage, quenching, and more.

Too dim, too bright, and just right: Systems analysis of the Chlamydomonas diurnal program upon acclimation to light stress and limitation https://t.co/ii0gIq0Vpp
It was an amazing experience to attend the Grand Jamboree and see all the incredible ideas! We are thrilled to have won the Grand Prize. We would like to thank all the sponsors, supervisors, PIs and supporters who made this possible. Words cannot express our gratitude! @iGEM
Novel enzyme starts with promiscuity. Excited to share our study that shows how #evolution recruits a single enzyme for multiple purposes, showcasing the plasticity and flexibility of #metabolism. Huge thanks to my colleagues at @erblabs & @mpi_marburg! https://t.co/aSkREL89IT
Excited to finally making the first steps turning our DynaPore project into an actual technology!

Our paper on continuous mutagenesis in living cells using HACE is now out in @ScienceMagazine!
We now demonstrate that HACE continuously generates mutations over a 10-day period and enables targeting using dCas9 without introducing DNA nicks.

I am thrilled to present the Paris Biofoundry to the World. A distributed Biofoundry for high-throughout engineering of bacteria, yeast, microalgae, mammalian cells, and Cell-free systems. #biofoundry#Synbio
Congrats @james_r_barrett & co! My fave story this year: delving into nature's different approaches to condensing Rubisco into a pyrenoid 🤩 Same mechanism, different execution - and it works in land plants!! Huge implications for crop engineering
