We characterised a new ABC transporter for DMSP which is present in many marine bacteria. great collaboration with @ToddLabUEA @MichiAMausz @aguilo_mar @eleonora_s17 @IanDEALidbury @ISMEJournal nature.com/articles/s4139…

Today is 8.1., the Ocean Acidification Day of Action. #OADayOfAction 8.1 is the current pH of the ocean – for now. The value is changing due to carbon dioxide emitted by humans, and the ocean is acidifying. Harmful for many creatures in the ocean. geomar.de/en/discover/oc…
