Chlamydomonas Responses to Salinity Stress and Possible Biotechnological Exploitation

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Salinity is among the main drivers affecting growth and distribution of photosynthetic organisms as Chlamydomonas spp. These species can live in multiple environments, including polar regions, and have been frequently studied for their adaptation to live

Construction of a novel vector for the nuclear transformation of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and its stable expression

Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2019
Plasmid pBI221aadAGUS which carried both of GUS (β-glucuronidase) and aadA (aminoglyoside transferase) genes besides of the 35S cauliflower mosaic virus promoter was constructed and used for stable nuclear transformation of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The

Proteomics and constraint-based modelling reveal enzyme kinetic properties of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii on a genome scale

Nature Communications, 2023
Metabolic engineering of microalgae offers a promising solution for sustainable biofuel production, and rational design of engineering strategies can be improved by employing metabolic models that integrate enzyme turnover numbers.

Selenoprotein-Transgenic Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]

Nutrients, 2013
Selenium (Se) deficiency is associated with the occurrence of many diseases. However, excessive Se supplementation, especially with inorganic Se, can result in toxicity. Selenoproteins are the major forms of Se in vivo to exert its biological function. Expression of those selenoproteins, especially with the application of a newly developed system,

Phycomediation of cadmium contaminated aqueous solutions using Chlamydomonas sp.: process optimization and adsorption characterization

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
The contamination resulting from heavy metals present in industrial effluents represents a critical global challenge, posing profound risks to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Industrial activities worldwide release wastewater laden with toxic metals,

Chemoresponses of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1978
Cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been found to respond to chemicals in two ways: chemokinesis and chemotaxis. Several amino acids, fatty acids, and inorganic salts can stimulate these responses.

Control Strategies in Guanine Biocrystallization

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Biological guanine crystals produce spectacular photonic phenomena in animals and hold great promise as new, sustainable optical materials. We review how organisms precisely control the structure, morphologies, and resulting optical properties of these crystals using a set of ingenious ‘design’ strategies, including control of pH, template‐directed ...

Function of the chloroplast hydrogenase in the microalga Chlamydomonas: the role of hydrogenase and state transitions during photosynthetic activation in anaerobiosis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Like a majority of photosynthetic microorganisms, the green unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii may encounter O2 deprived conditions on a regular basis. In response to anaerobiosis or in a respiration defective context, the photosynthetic electron

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS 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)
