Angew. Chem.: Efficiently producing and storing energy is a challenge for our society. A biocatalyst-polymer system could take on both tasks at once.

Nature Chem.:In proteins and rubber, they are indispensable: bonds between two sulphur atoms that link long molecules together. Pulling from outside on the disulphide bonds triggers unexpectedly complicated processes.

Nat. Comm.: The solvent is far more than just the environment for a chemical reaction. A recent study reveals new insights into the role of solvent molecules.

Nature: Bacteria can transfer energy from one membrane to another. How the proteins responsible for the process are arranged has been a mystery for a long time. Enrica Bordignon and coworkers publish new insights in Nature. -Nature

Nat. Comm.: With the aid of platinum catalysts, it is possible to efficiently produce hydrogen. However, this metal is rare and expensive. Researchers have discovered an alternative that is just as good, but less costly.

Nat. Comm.: Converting the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide into a useful chemical would be highly desirable. However, the catalysts available to date have not been efficient enough.

Angew. Chem.: Some living organisms thrive under extraordinary conditions, such as the deep sea. But just how do they withstand the enormous pressure?

PNAS: The team around RESOLV PS Prof. Franz Narberhaus and their colleagues at Helmholtz Center for Infection Research in Braunschweig and Leipzig University developed a new RNA thermometer.

Angew. Chem.: The team around RESOLV PS Prof. Thomas Happe gained new insights into the cofactor assembly of hydrogenase.
