Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Comparative performance of catalytic Fenton oxidation with zero-valent iron (Fe(0)) in comparison with ferrous sulphate for the removal of micropollutants [PDF]
This research aims to depict the comparative performance of micropollutants’ removal by FeSO4- and zero-valent iron (Fe(0))-catalytic Fenton oxidation and to explore the possibilities of minimising the sludge production from the process.

Nanoconfinement in advanced oxidation processes
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on the generation of reactive radicals are widely accepted to be effective technologies for mineralizing refractory organic contaminants or pretreating bio-recalcitrant compounds. The efficiencies of AOPs suffer from the low availability of ultrashort lifetime radicals due to their rapid self-quenching, mass ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
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)

Degradation of cyanotoxins (microcystin) in drinking water using photoelectrooxidation
The discharge of sewage and industrial effluents containing high concentrations of pollutants in water bodies increases eutrophication. Cyanobacteria, some of the organisms whose growth is promoted by high nutrient concentrations, are resistant and ...
