Agostini A, Bina D, Barcyte D, Bortolus M, Elias M, Carbonera D, et al.
Commun Biol . 2024 Oct; 7(1):1406. PMID: 39472488
Photosynthetic organisms harvest light for energy. Some eukaryotic algae have specialized in harvesting far-red light by tuning chlorophyll a absorption through a mechanism still to be elucidated. Here, we combined...

Sauer P, Cupellini L, Sutter M, Bondanza M, Dominguez Martin M, Kirst H, et al.
Sci Adv . 2024 Apr; 10(14):eadk7535. PMID: 38578996
Cyanobacteria use large antenna complexes called phycobilisomes (PBSs) for light harvesting. However, intense light triggers non-photochemical quenching, where the orange carotenoid protein (OCP) binds to PBS, dissipating excess energy as...

Malina T, Bina D, Collins A, Alster J, Psencik J
J Photochem Photobiol B . 2024 Mar; 254:112891. PMID: 38555841
Chlorosomes of green photosynthetic bacteria are large light-harvesting complexes enabling these organisms to survive at extremely low-light conditions. Bacteriochlorophylls found in chlorosomes self-organize and are ideal candidates for use in...

Ozcan E, Simova I, Bina D, Litvin R, Polivka T
Phys Chem Chem Phys . 2024 Mar; 26(13):10225-10233. PMID: 38497307
This study delves into the pH-dependent effects on the excited-state behavior of crocin, a hydrophilic carotenoid with diverse functions in biological systems. Steady-state spectroscopy demonstrates notable changes in absorption and...

Oltean H, Allen K, Frisbie L, Lunn S, Torres L, Manahan L, et al.
Emerg Infect Dis . 2023 Jan; 29(2):242-251. PMID: 36596565
Genomic data provides useful information for public health practice, particularly when combined with epidemiologic data. However, sampling bias is a concern because inferences from nonrandom data can be misleading. In...

Kopejtka K, Tomasch J, Kaftan D, Gardiner A, Bina D, Gardian Z, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2022 Dec; 119(50):e2211018119. PMID: 36469764
Photoheterotrophic bacteria harvest light energy using either proton-pumping rhodopsins or bacteriochlorophyll (BChl)-based photosystems. The bacterium AAP5 isolated from the alpine lake Gossenköllesee contains genes for both systems. Here, we show...

Gardiner A, Mujakic I, Bina D, Gardian Z, Kopejtka K, Nupur , et al.
Biochim Biophys Acta Bioenerg . 2022 Dec; 1864(2):148946. PMID: 36455648
Possibly the most abundant group of anoxygenic phototrophs are marine photoheterotrophic Gammaproteobacteria belonging to the NOR5/OM60 clade. As little is known about their photosynthetic apparatus, the photosynthetic complexes from the...

Agostini A, Bina D, Carbonera D, Litvin R
Biochim Biophys Acta Bioenerg . 2022 Nov; 1864(2):148935. PMID: 36379269
Detailed information on the photo-generated triplet states of diatom and haptophyte Fucoxanthin Chlorophyll-binding Proteins (FCPs and E-FCPs, respectively) have been obtained from a combined spectroscopic investigation involving Transient Absorption and...

Dominguez-Martin M, Sauer P, Kirst H, Sutter M, Bina D, Greber B, et al.
Nature . 2022 Aug; 609(7928):835-845. PMID: 36045294
Phycobilisome (PBS) structures are elaborate antennae in cyanobacteria and red algae. These large protein complexes capture incident sunlight and transfer the energy through a network of embedded pigment molecules called...
