Summary Nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) mechanisms fine‐tune light utilisation in the photosynthetic antenna, for example, in response to excess light, to prevent photodamage. NPQ comprises distinct mechanisms, all contributing to photoprotection but acting on different time scales.

Functional divergence of LhcSR and PsbS in zeaxanthin‐mediated non‐photochemical quenching
Summary To protect photosystem II from excess light, non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ) dissipates excess energy as heat. NPQ relies on trigger proteins, LhcSR in algae and PsbS in vascular plants, and the light‐regulated xanthophyll cycle, which interconverts violaxanthin and zeaxanthin through the opposite activities of violaxanthin de‐epoxidase and ...

Cryopreservation Protocol for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Cryopreservation is commonly used for storing viable cells, tissues, organs or organisms at ultralow temperatures, and usually involves immersion in liquid nitrogen at -196 °C. Here we provide a detailed cryopreservation protocol for C. reinhardtii based

Enhancing CRISPR/Cas‐Mediated Gene Knockout With Short Non‐Homologous Oligonucleotides
ABSTRACT Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a model green microalga that has great industrial potential as a sustainable bio‐factory for recombinant protein and high‐value chemical production. Efficient genome editing tools are required to redesign this organism for synthetic biology applications. CRISPR‐Cas editing technologies have already been adapted for

Control Strategies in Guanine Biocrystallization
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 ...

Plants synthesize ergothioneine, showing a link to abiotic stress
Various plants possess ergothioneine biosynthetic genes and can synthesize this antioxidant, where increased EGT levels under abiotic stress conditions indicate protective functions. Abstract Ergothioneine (EGT) is a sulphur‐containing histidine derivative and a potent antioxidant that exhibits beneficial effects on human health.
