Funded position available to join my new team at University of Turku, Finland, to do a PhD on how circadian clocks regulate extracellular electron transfer in photosynthetic cells. Application open until end of summer, start by end of year. Please share/apply ats.talentadore.com/apply/vaitos...

Our latest paper is out now in @jacs.acspublications.org . In this study we tried to push the limits of #electrochemistry beyond proteins, to studying entire pathways of biological electron transfer ⚡️🦠. Here's a summary 🧵 (1/10) pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Dissecting Bioelectrical Networks in Photosynthetic Membranes with Electrochemistry

Photosynthetic membranes contain complex networks of redox proteins and molecules, which direct electrons along various energy-to-chemical interconversion reactions important for sustaining life on Ea...

Our paper on how light-induced pH changes control the thylakoid membrane association and activity of flavodiiron proteins in Synechocystis is out @NewPhyt! nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Flavodiiron proteins associate pH‐dependently with the thylakoid membrane for ferredoxin‐1‐powered O2 photoreduction

Flavodiiron proteins (FDPs) catalyse light-dependent reduction of oxygen to water in photosynthetic organisms, creating an electron sink on the acceptor side of Photosystem I that protects the photo...
