#NewResearch Carotenoids enhance rhodopsin function as light-harvesting antennae and photocycle-accelerating pigments, a dual mechanism enhancing light energy capture and expanding microbial phototrophy. #MicroSky @labinoue.bsky.social @susumu31.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thanks!

Our paper reporting a new light-harvesting system in H⁺ & Cl⁻-pumping rhodopsins of marine bacteria is now out in Nature Microbiology! So excited!!! Key discoveries (using isolated cultures from the research cruise Mirai MR10-01 — personally, this is super exciting🔥): www.nature.com/articles/s41...

キアゲンのどら焼き（キアドラ）いただきました！

Congratulations! こんなのも分かるようになってきたのか！

2025年4月26日に大気海洋研究所の進学ガイダンスが行われます。自然環境学専攻と同じ日程です。 お待ちしております！ www.aori.u-tokyo.ac.jp/aori_news/in...
