I am so thrilled to share our new publication. We found that carboxysome losses integrity in response to ROS and PQ pool overreduction. RpaA seems to have an important role in controlling the organization of carboxysomes. For more details, here is the link:

Plastoquinone redox status influences carboxysome integrity via a RpaA‐ and reactive oxygen species‐dependent regulatory network
We identified a dramatic remodeling of carboxysomes under conditions that lead to overreduction of the plastoquinone pool of the photosynthetic electron transport chain. This overreduction was accomp...

Exciting weeks in China!

Prof. @yagut.bsky.social gave invited talks at:

🔬 ISPP 2025 on cyanobacterial bioenergetics
🧪 ICGC 2025 on biotech applications

Featuring EU-funded @s2b-project.eu and REALM, BF's AlgaCircle & RCF's Photo-e-Mat.

Thanks for hosting us!

We are happy to share a new research paper from the @photomicrobeslab.bsky.social on the production of green chemicals via whole-cell biotransformation in cyanobacteria - CO₂ & light quality significantly influence bio-production. microbialcellfactories.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
Optimising CO2 level and light quality for enhanced whole-cell biotransformation reactions in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 - Microbial Cell Factories
Cyanobacteria are emerging as a promising platform for whole-cell biotransformation, harnessing solar energy to drive biocatalytic reactions through recombinant enzymes. However, optimisation remains ...

We demonstrate that deletion of the PacR in Anabaena sp. 7120 triggers heterocyst formation in nitrate containing medium. This phenotype may stem from PacR mediated regulation of key genes of N and C metabolism as well as photosynthesis. doi.org/10.1111/ppl....
The role of the LysR‐type transcription factor PacR in regulating nitrogen metabolism in Anabaena sp. PCC7120
In the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120, heterocyst formation is triggered by changes in the C/N-ratio and relies on transcriptional reprogramming. The transcription factor PacR is co....
