Only 10 days left to apply for the PhD position investigating the reaction mechanisms of [FeFe]-hydrogenases and nitrogenases using time-resolved crystallography in the Senger lab in close collaboration with the Westenhoff group.
Come and join us in Sweden at Uppsala University @uu.se

Energy from air? No problem! In our new preprint, we reconstitute the machinery that allows microbes to endure starvation. By using the trace amounts of hydrogen in air alone, they produce plenty of chemical energy (2 ATP) to get by. The only byproduct? Water. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Hydrogenase-driven ATP synthesis from air
All cells require a continuous supply of the universal energy currency, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), to drive countless cellular reactions. The universally conserved F1Fo-ATP synthase regenerates ATP...

🚧Check out the preprint of a story I was involved in, lead by Lars Schäfer and Thomas Happe 🚧
We found that an additional cysteine in [FeFe]-hydrogenase enhances the flexibility of a conserved loop and facilitates the formation of an O2-insensitive cofactor state.
