How does Pseudomonas putida keep its redox balance steady across different metabolic states?
Our new preprint shows that two transhydrogenases -membrane-bound PntAB and soluble SthA - act together as a flexible, reversible system to control NAD(H)/NADP(H) ratios.

Newest preprint from our lab: a new family of promising synthetic CO2 fixation cycles that may outcompete the Calvin cycle and that Vittorio Rainaldi realized to a great extent in E. coli! Up to 11 heterologous enzymes in a cascade supporting CO2 fixation & growth! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Redox homeostasis is central to microbial physiology and stress adaptation, yet the functional roles of transhydrogenases remain poorly understood beyond a few organisms. In this study, we systematica...
Biological carbon fixation is currently limited to seven naturally occurring pathways. Synthetic carbon fixation pathways have the potential to surpass aerobic natural pathways in efficiency, but none...
