Iron economy in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 While research on iron nutrition in plants has largely focused on iron-uptake pathways, photosynthetic microbes such as the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii provide excellent experimental systems for understanding iron metabolism at the ...

Phototaxis Assay for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Bio-Protocol, 2017 Phototaxis is a behavior in which organisms move toward or away from the light source (positive or negative phototaxis, respectively). It is crucial for phototrophic microorganisms to inhabit under proper light conditions for phototaxis.

Expression of recombinant Cap antigen of porcine circovirus type 2 in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceThe capsid (Cap) protein encoded by the ORF2 gene of porcine circovirus type 2 is the major immunogen for the development of vaccines and can effectively reduce the incidence of porcine circovirus-associated diseases.

Genetic Predisposition Toward Multicellularity in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. [PDF]
Genome Biol EvolAbstract The evolution from unicellular to multicellular organisms facilitates further phenotypic innovations, notably cellular differentiation. Multiple research groups have shown that, in the laboratory, simple, obligate multicellularity can evolve from a unicellular ancestor under appropriate selection.

Selenoprotein: Potential Player in Redox Regulation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Antioxidants, 2022 Selenium (Se) is an essential micro-element for many organisms, including Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and is required in trace amounts. It is obtained from the 21st amino acid selenocysteine (Sec, U), genetically encoded by the UGA codon.

To Divide or Not to Divide? How Deuterium Affects Growth and Division of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Biomolecules, 2021 Extensive in vivo replacement of hydrogen by deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, induces a distinct stress response, reduces cell growth and impairs cell division in various organisms.

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,
