In 2026, Johannes moved on to become a W3 professor at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf and Head of Molecular Enzyme Technology at Forschungszentrum Jülich.
In M4C he worked on the following research projects:
The microbial Metalloenzyme lab focuses on the unique properties of metal-containing enzymes and in particular nitrogenase and nitrogenase-like proteins, which activate nitrogen (N2), but also CO and CO2. Combining structural and biochemical approaches, we aim to elucidate the underlying principles and mechanisms of metalloenzyme catalysis and use this knowledge to developing new and improved catalysts for the conversion of CO and CO2. In M4C, we are interested in the evolution and engineering of CO2-activating metalloenzymes and their integration into novel metabolic pathways using these unique reactivities for new carbon capture and conversion reactions.
Research Focus:
Microbes as Drivers; Microbes providing Solutions
