Lets talk about #acetyl-CoA! As central molecule in C1 metabolism, the efficiency of its assimilation determines yields. Read below about our Lcm as novel activity in the shortest O2 tolerant route to make pyruvate from acetyl-CoA while fixing #CO2! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Super excited to share my main research @erblabs, new in @ScienceMagazine, where I engineered a cell-free system that self-regenerates using building blocks autonomously synthesized from CO2! 🧪🫧 Let me tell you more below 👇 science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
