Diffusive and Metabolic Constraints to Photosynthesis in Quinoa during Drought and Salt Stress

open access: yesPlants, 2017
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) has been proposed as a hardy alternative to traditional grain crops in areas with warm-to-hot climates that are likely to experience increased drought and salt stress in the future.

Interactions Between Carbon Metabolism and Photosynthetic Electron Transport in a Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Mutant Without CO2 Fixation by RuBisCO

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
A Chlamydomonas reinhardtii RuBisCO-less mutant, ΔrbcL, was used to study carbohydrate metabolism without fixation of atmospheric carbon. The regulatory mechanism(s) that control linear electron flow, known as “photosynthetic control,” are amplified in ...

Genes and pathways for CO2 fixation in the obligate, chemolithoautotrophic acidophile, Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Carbon fixation in A. ferrooxidans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is chemolithoautotrophic gamma-proteobacterium that thrives at extremely low pH (pH 1-2). Although a substantial amount of information is available regarding CO2 uptake and fixation in a variety of facultative ...

Influence of Inorganic Phosphate on Photosynthesis of Wheat Chloroplasts: II. RIBULOSE BISPHOSPHATE CARBOXYLASE ACTIVITY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Isolated wheat chloroplasts were pre-incubated in the dark in the presence of various concentrations of inorganic phosphate with or without carbon dioxide, oxaloacetate, glycerate, and 3-phosphoglycerate.

Technobiological Pathways for High‐CO₂ Capture Using Micro‐/Macroalgae: Genetic Engineering, Process Automation, and Value‐Added Bioproducts

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

An Idea to Explore: From How to Why: Using Evolutionary Biochemistry to Inspire Biochemistry Education

open access: yesBiochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional biochemistry instruction often emphasizes mechanistic detail, that is, how molecules and pathways function, without equally addressing why they have their present forms. This fact‐centered approach can leave students overwhelmed and disconnected from the broader scientific narrative.

Purification and Degradation of Ribulose Bisphosphate Carboxylase from Soybean Leaves [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1986
A rapid method is described for the preparation of up to 500 milligrams of pure ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBP carboxylase) from 250 grams of field-grown soybean leaves. Leaves were extracted in 20 millimolar phosphate (pH 6.9) at 4 degrees C, containing 4% (w/v) polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, 10 micromolar leupeptin, 1 millimolar ...

Construction of a CO2‐Fixing Compartment Using a Shape‐Transforming DNA Scaffold

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A shape‐transforming DNA scaffold encapsulates RuBisCO within a controllable, self‐contacting compartment that mimics the carboxysome. The scaffold switches between open and closed states, enabling direct comparison of identical enzyme populations in different microenvironments.

Fulvic Acid Enhances Oat Growth and Grain Yield Under Drought Deficit by Regulating Ascorbate–Glutathione Cycle, Chlorophyll Synthesis, and Carbon–Assimilation Ability

open access: yesAgronomy
Drought deficit inhibits oat growth and yield. Fulvic acid (FA) can enhance plant stress tolerance, but its effects on regulating the ascorbate–glutathione cycle, chlorophyll synthesis, and carbon–assimilation ability remain unclear.

Strategies for modulation and optimization of the photorespiration pathway in plants

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2020
Plant ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxidase (Rubisco) has two activities, and the one is carboxylation to assimilate CO2 to produce food for the biosphere, and the other one is oxidation to generate toxic 2-phosphoglycolate to commit the ...
