Hi everyone!
I am thrilled to finally share with you the result of my Ph.D. thesis.
In this study, we used genetics and metal quantifications to study the link between iron and copper homeostasis in Caulobacter crescentus.

Role of a TonB-dependent receptor and an oxygenase in iron-dependent copper resistance in Caulobacter crescentus | Journal of Bacteriology
Copper is an essential metal for many living organisms, as it helps to drive crucial
chemical reactions. However, when present in excess, copper turns toxic due to its
high reactivity with biological ...
