Comparative analysis of genome-scale, base-resolution DNA methylation profiles across 580 animal species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Methylation of cytosines is a prototypic epigenetic modification of the DNA. It has been implicated in various regulatory mechanisms across the animal kingdom and particularly in vertebrates. We mapped DNA methylation in ... -
Faster Atlantic currents drive poleward expansion of temperate phytoplankton in the Arctic Ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Arctic marine biome, shrinking with increasing temperature and receding sea-ice cover, is tightly connected to lower latitudes through the North Atlantic. By flowing northward through the European Arctic Corridor (the ... -
Insect glycerol transporters evolved by functional co-option and gene replacement
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-06-12)Transmembrane glycerol transport is typically facilitated by aquaglyceroporins in Prokaryota and Eukaryota. In holometabolan insects however, aquaglyceroporins are absent, yet several species possess polyol permeable ... -
Lysates of Methylococcus capsulatus Bath induce a lean-like microbiota, intestinal FoxP3+RORγt+IL-17+ Tregs and improve metabolism
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Interactions between host and gut microbial communities are modulated by diets and play pivotal roles in immunological homeostasis and health. We show that exchanging the protein source in a high fat, high sugar, westernized ... -
Metagenome-wide association of gut microbiome features for schizophrenia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Evidence is mounting that the gut-brain axis plays an important role in mental diseases fueling mechanistic investigations to provide a basis for future targeted interventions. However, shotgun metagenomic data from ... -
Modelled drift patterns of fish larvae link coastal morphology to seabird colony distribution
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-05-13)Colonial breeding is an evolutionary puzzle, as the benefits of breeding in high densities are still not fully explained. Although the dynamics of existing colonies are increasingly understood, few studies have addressed ... -

One mechanism contributing to co-variability of the Atlantic inflow branches to the Arctic

Recent trend reversal for declining European seagrass meadows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Seagrass meadows, key ecosystems supporting fisheries, carbon sequestration and coastal protection, are globally threatened. In Europe, loss and recovery of seagrasses are reported, but the changes in extent and density ... -
Wind-driven upwelling of iron sustains dense blooms and food webs in the eastern Weddell Gyre
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The Southern Ocean is a major sink of anthropogenic CO2 and an important foraging area for top trophic level consumers. However, iron limitation sets an upper limit to primary productivity. Here we report on a considerably ...
