Sleeping beauty exporters are virtually never expressed, unless they are kissed awake. Read our latest work about the transport of small amino acids including beta-alanine 🦠

New work by Robert Warneke (inactive) : Bacteria have underground reservoirs of defensive mechanisms such as "sleeping beauty" amino acid exporters that they tap into only under stress. conditions! @unigoe 🤝@uniofnewcastle mBio journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Fresh off the press, our story about the mysterious "sleeping beauty" transporters! Thank you for this great collaboration in Newcastle! mBio Jörg Stülke Uni Göttingen

In this work, @warnekerobert uncovers pathways of C3 amino acid uptake and export from Bacillus subtilis. Importantly, the work identifies AexA, the first sleeping beauty amino acid exporter. Jörg Stülke #mBio journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

A little appetizer for the new story of Robert Warneke (inactive) ! Discovery of a novel metabolite! Stay tuned! Uni Göttingen #bacillus #subtilis

Exciting news ahead: A novel metabolite shortcuts coenzyme A biosynthesis 🔬

In our latest work, we discovered a novel metabolite in coenzyme A biosynthesis. This metabolite allows B. subtilis to grow independently from vitamin B5 and allowed us to create a mutant of an essential gene. I am grateful for this wonderful collaboration with @IFeussner lab!

3-year PhD position available in my group starting 01.01.2025. The candidate will study the connection between sugar metabolism and virulence in Listeria monocytogenes. Please contact me if you are interested! German language skills required.

I am deeply moved and unwhelmingly happy to share with you that I successfully defended my thesis this week! Thank you Jörg Stülke for this wonderful time and all of your support. Uni Göttingen

I was generously gifted by Molecular Microbiology & sons! Never been a fan of the iPhone but the fresh new look is really convincing. Thank you 💯😂 Jörg Stülke

Read our latest work about the c-di-AMP binding protein DarA in B. subtilis. This second messenger has still a lot of mysteries to offer and DarA seems to play a central role in osmoadaptation.

🫵 Please contact us if you would like to do a postdoc at the University of Uni Hohenheim with the most beautiful campus in Germany! You may develop your own research topic in microbial metabolism, herbicide resistance, second messenger signaling & bacteriophages! #Subtiwiki

Read the new story of Robert Warneke (inactive) on coenzyme A biosynthesis in Bacillus subtilis and the identification of a novel metabolite, cysteinopantetheine! Excellent collaboration with Christoph Elfmann @IFeussner and teams! mBio Uni Göttingen #subtiwiki journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Robert Warneke (inactive) et al. from Uni Göttingen have elucidated vitamin B5 and coenzyme A biosyntheses in Bacillus subtilis. They have identified cysteinopantetheine, a novel hybrid metabolite that can fuel a salvage route to CoA. Jörg Stülke #mBio journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Grateful that we could contribute to this amazing work from the Rappsilber laboratory with Robert Warneke (inactive) and other team members! Read about new ways for protein structure prediction by integrating AI and experimental results! #subtiwiki Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

“We’re very excited to see what people do with this” AlphaFold3 is open at last go.nature.com/4fHAfio

Proudly announcing the early release of SubtiWiki v5 (subtiwiki.uni-goettingen.de)! It has many new features which we hope you'll like. It also still might have some bugs / missing data, so please don't hesitate to let us know! #subtiwiki #bacillus #subtilis @IMPRS_GS Jörg Stülke

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone! Enjoy the little break from science and have some cookies 🍪

Thank you Jörg Stülke for your excellent supervision! I am very honoured and happy about this wonderful award.
