Multiscale assessments of hydroclimatic modelling uncertainties under a changing climate

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change, 2022
Since the 1970s, climate change has led to decreasing water resources in the Sahel. To cope with climate change, reliable modelling of future hydroclimatic evolutions is required.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
