2. 1. Structural dynamics of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase

   Author : Michiel Van Lun; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) assimilates carbon dioxide (CO2) from air into biomass. Due to its slow turnover, the reaction is a rate-limiting step in photosynthetic carbon fixation. READ MORE

4. 2. Engineering cyanobacteria for increased growth and productivity

   Author : Feiyan Liang; Peter Lindblad; Pia Lindberg; Olaf Kruse; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cyanobacteria; CBB cycle; growth; biomass; photosynthesis; ethanol;

   Abstract : Increasing the photosynthetic efficiency is one of the strategies to increase the crop yields to meet the requirement of 50% more food by 2050. Due to the similarity on photosynthesis between crops and cyanobacteria, cyanobacteria are ideal alternatives to study photosynthesis since cyanobacteria are prokaryotes, easier to engineer and have shorter life cycle.

5. 3. Developmental patterns in the Nostoc-Gunnera symbiosis

   Author : Erik Söderbäck; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Gunneraceae is an angiosperm family comprising about 60 species scattered in the southern hemisphere. All members of the family develop a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with intracellularly located Nostoc. The aim of the present study was to characterize the symbiosis, structurally and physiologically, with emphasis on G. magellanica and G. READ MORE
