Our article on #isoprenoid metabolism in #phytoplankton is now published in @plantphys.bsky.social.
Co-led by Florian Pruckner and @liukm3.bsky.social, we examine algal metabolic diversity and its role in #aquatic #ecosystems and #biotech applications.

New paper from our team: we show how a #biotech-relevant #diatom reprograms its #isoprenoid metabolism under prolonged nutrient stress. These shifts inform #synbio strategies to boost high-value compound production in microalgae. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... @villumscience.bsky.social
