New study in @JACS overturns the proposed Baeyer-Villiger Monooxygenase role of RslO9 in rishirilide biosynthesis. Instead, it uses a Hooker oxidation-like mechanism: substrate hydroxylation + alkyl migration. Led by Heiner Weddeling @unibas pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

YUCCA enzymes are key for plant auxin biosynthesis – but Sina Rütschlin (@Unibas) discovered their surprising dual role: they also drive chlorophyll degradation, which may link leaf senescence to auxin homeostasis in plants! Great collab w/ Simone Moser onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

We are organizing our second workshop in this June at Riga with four Invited Speakers, Yvain Nicolet, Robin Teufel, Joleen Masschelein and Florian Hubrich.

We had a wonderful 3rd Japanese-German Symposium on the Biosynthesis of Natural Products in Bonn. Thank you all for the great talks and fruitful discussions! See you again at the next conference in Japan.

Very happy that our work on understanding tropolone biosynthesis is now out in @mbiojournal Great work from the PhD of @AlasterMoffat and some excellent biochemistry from @TeufelLab #biosynthesis #Pseudomonas journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Happy to share our latest publication on a #flavin #oxidase family and a tool to depict and simplify enzyme mining and selection by @DEggerichs et al #biocatalysis #flavoprotein #enzymology #biotechnology nature.com/articles/s4200…

🙏 for the highlight! @ChemEurope

New @biorxiv_micrbio preprint from our group: "Understanding the biosynthesis, metabolic regulation, and anti-phytopathogen activity of 3,7-dihydroxytropolone in Pseudomonas spp.” Great work from @TheRealAlimoff with some important biochemical data from @TeufelLab

@dirktischler 💪 the new paper is really a great read, kudos to all involved

@TeufelLab Thx a lot, the indole epoxide trapping we published earlier was based on your work on the phenylacetic acid conversion and our discussions at the meeting in Groningen, like a century ago or so... 😉😁

Just published: Structural & Mechanistical Studies on Substrate & Stereo Selectivity of the Indole #Monooxygenase VpIndA1: New Avenues for #Biocatalytic #Epoxidations and #Sulfoxidations onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an… 1/n a story of my science life on #flavoprotein. So proud!

A huge congratulations to @tdotsmvp on the publication of his most recent paper in #ACSchembiol @ACSBioMed, we are really excited about the apparent convergent evolution of these bacterial alkaloid gene clusters pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
