Super excited to share my 1st first-author publication out today in Science Magazine, in which we resurrect billion-year-old enzymes to study the evolution of Rubisco. Let me tell you how a 100 amino acid protein facilitated the rise of oxygenic life. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Legend has it that your protein bands will look twice as nice with this custom Ralf Moeller buffer dam
If you ever wondered how many purified enzymes work together in one pot, the answer is yes! Happy to share one of the last stories from my work in the SYBORG. Big thanks to first author Patrick Gerlinger, Nature Chemical Biology, Nicole Paczia (# notwitterhandle) and last but not least Tobi!
