Structural Insights Into CO2 Transport Pathways in a W‐Formate Dehydrogenase: Structural Basis for CO2 Reduction Integrated structural analysis of N. vulgaris formate dehydrogenase AB, an enzyme with applications in climate change mitigation, is reported. The substrate/product diffusion pathways were fully mapp...

Protein crystals pressurized with Kr, O2, or CO2 reveal substrate pathways in Nitratidesulfovibrio vulgaris formate dehydrogenase (Romão & Mota et al.)

Comic eines Nerds am PC, der von einem Meteoriten durchs Fenster geblendet wird. Er geht zum Fenster, schließt den Vorhang und setzt sich wieder an den PC.

Junger Mann wacht geblendet im Bett auf. Darüber steht: Endlich wieder ausschlafen nach den Klausuren. Meteorit:

Entspannt aussehender Hund mit geschlossenen Augen. Darüber steht: Accepting your fate.

Und wieder alles verpasst 🥺

Registration and abstract submission is open for eurobic18.eu. Hopefully we see all of you (bio)inorganic chemists in Groningen - the coolest place to be in Europe this summer (and probably also a bit wet but fantastic speakers!).

Conductive macro structures are not unheard of in bacteria but I never saw them framed as MOFs 😊

Glorious remaster of a film that confused and frightened me as a child! Can't say it's less confusing today 🤗

At 9 AM I showed up in swimming trunks and a white towel I had stolen from the hotel only to find this

Grafik, die Nutzerzahlen von OpenAI und Anthropic zeigt und einen starken Verlust für erstes und scharfen Anstieg für zweites Unternehmen ab dem 25.2. zeigt.

Danke an so viele Menschen, ein klares Signal für mutiges Handeln gesendet zu haben!
Persönlich denke ich, dass Go European mit Le Chat von Mistral weiter zentral ist. Aber in diesem direkten Showdown zwischen Werten und Gier war das Signal für Anthropic & das US Kriegsministerium wichtig.

Hooray for Johannes!

The good thing about being a vib spec person is being able to use isotopes 🙂

An unconventional Rubisco small subunit underpins the CO2-concentrating organelle in land plants In many algae, photosynthesis is boosted by biophysical CO2-concentrating mechanisms, which pack the CO2-fixing enzyme Rubisco into liquid-like organelles called pyrenoids. Engineering C3 crops with a...

Say hi to the new kids on the block

Happy to share our new paper on proton transfer in metalloenzymes, out now in @pccp.rsc.org!
Exploiting crystallography, electrochemistry, FTIR spectroscopy, and QM calculations we identified a Zundel ion in the catalytic proton tranfer pathway of [FeFe]-hydrogenase.

For bonus content, please find a picture of the late, great Georg Zundel attached looking like the late, great Robin Williams 🥰

Protonation/reduction dynamics at the [4Fe–4S] cluster of the hydrogen-forming cofactor in [FeFe]-hydrogenases The [FeFe]-hydrogenases of bacteria and algae are the most efficient hydrogen conversion catalysts in nature. Their active-site cofactor (H-cluster) comprises a [4Fe–4S] cluster linked to a unique dii...

The new data disprove an older model of ours that suggested protonation of the H-cluster's [4Fe-4S] backend.

However, they agree with the proposed presence of a protonated water cluster, H2O5+.
