New pre-print from the lab! We show that the subtilase SBT12a is essential for symbiosome stabilization in Medicago. Using HUNTER proteomics, we even got some of its substrates. Have a look. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

A really exciting strength of our Cluster of Excellence @cibss.bsky.social is the highly collaborative atmosphere, which stretches as far as bridging plant and medical research. Happy to see an example that involves our work highlighted at "ZEIT für X" from @zeit.de. zeitfuerx.de/forschung/ci...

How does a single plant cell tell symbiont from pathogen? We show that the Symbiotic Determinant 1 of NFR1 evolved to facilitate nitrogen-fixing symbiotic signalling. I’m thrilled to share our published data from my PhD back in Aarhus! #symbiosis #juxtamembrane #ensa www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Two residues reprogram immunity receptors for nitrogen-fixing symbiosis - Nature

An investigation of plant receptor-like kinases identifies regions of these proteins that control whether immune or symbiotic signalling pathways are activated, with minimal changes to specific r...
