Happy to share the key part of my PhD! In our latest preprint with Salma Akter, @emilyflashman.bsky.social & @beagiuntoli.bsky.social, we show that H₂S is involved in oxygen sensing in plants!
How? Check it out!🌱✨
Many thanks to all the authors involved!

Hydrogen sulfide modulates plant hypoxic responses through the persulfidation of Plant Cysteine Oxidases
Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) is a gaseous molecule historically regarded as toxic. Nevertheless, increasing evidence has brought to light important physiological roles in both animals and plants. In plants,...

So happy this is out as a preprint (for) now. Since measuring ATP is tricky, we used ATP biosensors in collab with @schwarzlanderlab.bsky.social to show that in chloroplasts without PGR5, NPQ and pmf are diminished, yet ATP levels unchanged. Balancing ATP/NADPH must be achieved by different means.
Our new preprint 🚨🌱☀️on flourescent biosensing of ATP levels in chloroplasts in vivo shows disequilibrium between proton motive force and ATP levels. We show PGR5 dependent cyclic electron transfer does not augment ATP/NADPH ratios @gustaf23.bsky.social 🙌

Is science too obsessed with metrics, large-scale projects & “blockbuster” outputs? Desai & Jun argued that preserving the "auteur" spirit of individual creativity, exploration and risk-taking is essential for maintaining the creativity that drew us into science in the 1st place.

It's wild how quickly we consider the reliable production of food as a trivial solved problem, especially as silicon technologies advance. Agriculture is by no means solved, by no means trivial, and by no means secure. All the longevity hype means nothing if we don't have food.
