Thrilled to share the peer-reviewed version of our NifL-NifA structure paper: febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/....
I am greatful to @ukri.org for the funding, the @johninnescentre.bsky.social for the support over the years and all co-authors who joined me in this challenge.

I am incredibly proud to share with you all my latest preprint on the structure of the NifL-NifA complex: doi.org/10.1101/2025...
Thanks to all my mentors and collaborators at the @johninnescentre.bsky.social and BBSRC for the funding.
Structural analysis of the NifL-NifA complex reveals the molecular basis of anti-activation of nitrogen fixation gene expression in Azotobacter vinelandii
Understanding the molecular basis of regulated nitrogen (N2) fixation is essential for engineering N2-fixing bacteria that fulfill the demand of crop plants for fixed nitrogen, reducing our reliance o...
