Up to now, the evolutionary trajectory of the most prevalent CO2-fixing enzyme – Rubisco Form I, has been difficult to study. The Rubisco found in today’s plants and algae has 8 small subunits (SSU) ...

"Our job is to understand those solutions well enough to apply them where they're needed most." Researchers uncover strange plants that could change how we produce food: 'Nature has already tested ...

As part of the Tansley Review, the trio discuss their own research in increasing Rubisco in sorghum, as shown in these 2023 field trials. The authors believe improving rubisco could be part of ...

In the recent study, “Improving the Efficiency of Rubisco by Resurrecting Its Ancestors in the Family Solanaceae,” Cornell researchers, Myat Lin, lead author and researcher in the Hanson Lab, and ...

Manajit Hayer-Hartl, head of the research group "Chaperonin-assisted Protein Folding," has a long-standing interest in the central enzyme of photosynthesis called Rubisco. Her team has already ...

Researchers used a mathematical model to gain insight into possibly building Rubisco compartments in crop plants to assist in increasing yield productivity. Rubisco is arguably the most abundant -- ...

Rubisco. Molecular model of the enzyme rubisco (ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase) complexed with 2-carboxyarabinitol biphosphate. Rubisco is thought to be the most abundant and important ...

A research group consisting of Associate Professor FUKAYAMA Hiroshi (Kobe University, Graduate School of Agricultural Science) and Professor MATSUMURA Hiroyoshi (Ritsumeikan University) et al. have ...

The enzyme rubisco is found in all plants and other photosynthesizing organisms. It plays a key role in fixing carbon from the air and has helped shape life on Earth. Now researchers at UC Davis, UC ...

Researchers have elucidated how Rubisco activase works. As the name indicates, this enzyme is critical for repairing Rubisco once it has lost its activity. Manajit Hayer-Hartl, head of the research ...
