1. Photosynthetic water oxidation : the function of two extrinsic proteins
Abstract : The solar energy accumulated by photosynthesis over billions of years is the sole source of energy available on Earth. Photosystem II (PSII) uses the sunlight to split water, an energetically unfavorable reaction where electrons and protons are extracted from water and oxygen is released as a by-product. READ MORE

2. Life of Excitons in Artificial Photosynthetic Antennas
Abstract : Due to the predicted energy crisis when fossil fuels will be exhausted it is important to search for alternative energy sources. Utilizing sunlight via artificial photosynthesis is an interesting possibility. READ MORE

3. Low temperature acclimation in plants : alterations in photosynthetic carbon metabolism
Abstract : Although low temperature plays an important role in determining agricultural yield, little is known about the effect on the underlying biochemical and physiological processes that influence plant growth. Photosynthesis and respiration are central to plant growth and both processes are heavily affected by temperature. READ MORE

4. Big Lessons from Small Bacteria : Following Photo-driven Processes in Photosynthetic Systems with Multidimensional Spectroscopy
Abstract : Sunlight is a plentiful, continuously flowing source of energy, fuelling life on Earth as we know it. To use this potential, plants, cyanobacteria and photosynthetic bacteria evolved to absorb solar radiance and convert it into a chemically stable form by performing a process known as photosynthesis.

5. Photosynthetic nitrogen assimilation in green microalgae
Abstract : Reduction of inorganic nitrogen (N0j, N0~) in illuminated Scamdumus obtuu-iuAculuA Chod. is coupled to photosynthetic electron transport. Uptake and reduction of NO^ are in balance with incorporation of reduced N during CO2 fixation; whereas in the absence of CO2, the cells liberate NH^ derived from NOj reduction. READ MORE
