ABSTRACT Microalgae are increasingly recognised as powerful platforms for the sustainable production of lipids and terpenoids, with expanding applications in the food, fuel and biomanufacturing industries. In this updated review, we consolidate and critically assess the most recent advances in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering of key ...

Phosphoglycolate phosphatase (PGPase), a key enzyme in photosynthetic organisms, catalyzes the dephosphorylation of phosphoglycolate, which is largely produced by the oxygenase activity of Rubisco, and is a potent inhibitor of several Calvin cycle ...

ABSTRACT Phytoene desaturase (PDS; EC 1.3.5.5) is a key enzyme of the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway, catalyzing the desaturation of phytoene, precursor of all carotenoids. In this study, several PDS‐knockout (PDS‐KO) transformants of the chlorophyte microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were generated using a reverse genetics strategy. Two single guide

Structural mass spectrometry techniques for characterisation of plant and algal proteins
SUMMARY Structural biology can offer valuable insights into the mechanisms and functions of key proteins within plant molecular and cellular systems. However, plant proteins present several specific challenges for structural analysis, including difficulties in expression and purification, significant intrinsic disorder, and extensive post‐translational
