Super excited to share my 1st first-author publication out today in @ScienceMagazine, in which we resurrect billion-year-old enzymes to study the evolution of Rubisco. Let me tell you how a 100 amino acid protein facilitated the rise of oxygenic life. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

🌍 Exciting news! This summer, my group joins @mpi_marburg to create photoenzymes for solar energy conversion & carbon capture. With #ProteinDesign 🖥️ & #DirectedEvolution 🧬, we’ll push enzyme design to new limits for a sustainable future! #Hiring mpi-marburg.mpg.de/1497154/job_fu…
Check out Beau‘s sick PhD work!! Finally out for the world to read
Glad to see my main PhD project finally out @NatureMicrobiol nature.com/articles/s4156… We show for the first time that a synthetic and engineered pathway can indeed exceed nature at one-carbon fixation.

Congrats to @Leo_Ernst_2 for successfully defending his PhD thesis @mpi_marburg !🎊🍾🎉🥳 The first doctor from the Rebelein lab.
The story of how I developed the first biocatalysts for convergent and stereoselective SNAr chemistry is out now in @Nature! A massive thank you to all of the contributing authors from @GreenGroupMIB and @LarrosaGroup 🤓 nature.com/articles/s4158…
Delighted to announce that 'Engineered enzymes for enantioselective nucleophilic aromatic substitutions' is out now in Nature! Congratulations to Tom, George and everyone else involved in this project! 🎉🎉🎉 nature.com/articles/s4158…
Two exciting papers about the the protection of nitrogenases from O2 by the ferredoxin Shethna protein II from the Tezcan doi.org/10.1038/s41586… and Einsle doi.org/10.1038/s41586… labs were published today by @Nature. Surprisingly both papers reveal superstructures of filaments.
Happy to share our story on evolution of protein quaternary structure! We discover an astounding variation in assembly across evolutionary timescales contrasted by strong functional conservation suggesting a significant role of non-adaptive processes nature.com/articles/s4146… 👇🧵
lets gooooo - congratz Johannes!
I am honored to be selected as @EMBO Young Investigator. Thank you to my students and lab members who made this success possible!
Check this out!! highly recommend being in Tobi’s lab - so much scientific freedom, resources, and career support!
We are looking for a postdoc - in a project on a UbiD like (de)carboxylase!

Lets talk about #acetyl-CoA! As central molecule in C1 metabolism, the efficiency of its assimilation determines yields. Read below about our Lcm as novel activity in the shortest O2 tolerant route to make pyruvate from acetyl-CoA while fixing #CO2! nature.com/articles/s4146…
