Photosynthetic cells are quite diverse and include cells found in green plants, phytoplankton, and cyanobacteria. During the process of photosynthesis, cells use carbon dioxide and energy from the ...

In a study published today (October 13) in iScience, researchers found a way to harness photosynthesis to supply neurons with oxygen: they injected either cyanobacteria or green algae into Xenopus ...

Absorption spectra of cyanobacteria cells cultured under yellow-green light or under red light. The increase in the amount of PEC was only seen in the cells cultured in yellow-green light.

His research group focuses on the principles and mechanisms underlying the spatial and temporal organization of photosynthesis in cyanobacteria and eukaryotic organelles using synthetic biology and ...

These dynamics form the basis for the regulation of photosynthesis, and therefore the adaptability of plants, algae and cyanobacteria to different environments. We use a multi-faceted approach that ...

thus improving the photosynthesis efficiency. The researchers put the material into the liquid culture medium of cyanobacteria or sprayed it on plants for experiment. The results show that the ...

Did aerobic metabolism exist before photosynthesis? A newly discovered molecule suggests bacteria could use oxygen before cyanobacteria made it abundant. Life’s oxygen story just got more complex.
