Regulation of violaxanthin de-epoxidase (VDE) involves a conformational change at low lumenal pH, followed by binding of the enzyme to the thylakoid membrane. The role of histidine residues in this process was studied by release of unbound enzyme from thylakoids upon sonication, on a pH scale from 4.7 to 7.1. The co-operativity for binding of spinach VDE (four histidines) to the membrane was found

Protein engineering studies often suggest the emergence of completely new enzyme functionalities to be highly improbable. However, enzymes likely catalysed many different reactions already in the last universal common ancestor. Mechanisms for the emergence of completely new active sites must therefore either plausibly exist or at least have existed at the primordial protein stage. Here, we use res

Biodiversity loss and the climate crisis are closely linked. A warmer climate impacts wildlife, entire ecosystems and people, while biodiversity loss exacerbates the effects of climate change. Innovative research can limit the negative effects of these intertwined crises. Researchers at Lund University are investigating the complex links between biodiversity loss and climate change. They are also
