Stunning!

We are pleased to announce that we will organize the next Nordic Photosynthesis Congress and the Nordic Algae Symposium in #Turku, Finland in 2027! 🇫🇮

Nice article explaining my latest first author publication for a general audience! natsci.msu.edu/news/2025/20...

Thanks Nick! I hope that you are doing well!

Thank you to all the authors, Yagut (@yagut.bsky.social), Lauri (@laurinikkanen.bsky.social), Manos and, especially to Danny

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...

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 ROS-dependent regulatory network Carboxysomes are bacterial microcompartments that encapsulate Rubisco and are a core component of the cyanobacterial carbon concentration mechanism (CCM). While carboxysome number, size and spatial or...
