    Coordinated wound responses in a regenerative animal-algal holobiont

    Animal regeneration involves coordinated responses across cell types throughout the animal body. In endosymbiotic animals, whether and how symbionts react to host injury and how cellular responses are integrat...

    Crosstalk between photosynthesis and respiration in microbes

    Phototrophic organisms harbor two main bioenergetic hubs, photosynthesis and respiration, and these processes dynamically exchange and share metabolites to balance the energy of the cell. In microalgae and cya...

    Alternative photosynthesis pathways drive the algal CO2-concentrating mechanism

    Global photosynthesis consumes ten times more CO2 than net anthropogenic emissions, and microalgae account for nearly half of this consumption1. The high efficiency of algal photosynthesis relies on a mechanism c...

    Coral symbionts evolved a functional polycistronic flavodiiron gene

    Photosynthesis in cyanobacteria, green algae, and basal land plants is protected against excess reducing pressure on the photosynthetic chain by flavodiiron proteins (FLV) that dissipate photosynthetic electro...

    Role of an ancient light-harvesting protein of PSI in light absorption and photoprotection

    Diverse algae of the red lineage possess chlorophyll a-binding proteins termed LHCR, comprising the PSI light-harvesting system, which represent an ancient antenna form that evolved in red algae and was acquired ...

    Continuous photoproduction of hydrocarbon drop-in fuel by microbial cell factories

    Use of microbes to produce liquid transportation fuels is not yet economically viable. A key point to reduce production costs is the design a cell factory that combines the continuous production of drop-in fue...
