Remember aetokthonotoxin (AETX), the “eagle-killer #cyanotoxin” that we discovered to kill e.g. bald eagles ()? A. hydrillicola not only produces #AETX. 2/
Looking for TWO PhD students to work on #AETX, the #EagleKiller #cyanotoxin (). Focus synthetic chemistry or biology. German knowledge mandatory (teaching). Mehr Infos siehe Homepage. @VAAM #phdjobs #phdposition #promotion #pharmazie #NaturalProductResearch
Thanks to all for the congrats and for sharing our work! The resonance has been stunning. 😮 #AETX and the "eagle killer" cyanobacterium #Aetokthonos hydrillicola will keep us busy for some more years... 😀 #VM #ornithology #cyanotoxin #NaturalProducts
We also studied the production of #AETX by the cyanobacterium, and our Czech collaboration partners, led by Jan Mareš from the Biology Centre of the #CzechAcademyOfSciences, started characterizing its biosynthesis (finally, we were funded by @dfg_public and #GAČR). 15/
