  2. 1. Studies on the structure and biogenesis of membrane proteins from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

    Author : Ghasem Nurani; Max Möller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : The green alga unicellular Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has been used for many years as a model system in the area of photosynthesis. Therefore, the C. reinhardtii chloroplast has been the subject of many studies. In contrast, the mitochondria have received less attention. READ MORE

  4. 2. Protection of Photosystem II from Photodamage during the Assembly of the Water Oxidizing Complex

    Author : Maria Rova; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TyrosineD; cytochrome b559; Photoinhibition; Photoactivation; Botany; Botanik;

    Abstract : Photosystem II catalyses the light driven oxidation of water, which is a key reaction in oxygenic photosynthesis. This enzyme is, however, exposed to light induced degradation, which decreases the efficiency of the photosynthetic process. READ MORE

  5. 3. Functions of REP27 and the low molecular weight proteins PsbX and PsbW in repair and assembly of photosystem II

    Author : Jose Gines Garcia Cerdan; Wolfgang Schröder; Eva-Mari Aro; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Photosynthesis; photosystem II reaction center; PSII-LHCII supercomplex; antisense plant; T-DNA knockout plant; auxiliary protein; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract :     Oxygenic photosynthesis is the major producer of both oxygen and organic compounds on earth and takes place in plants, green algae and cyanobacteria. The thylakoid membranes are the site of the photosynthetic light reactions that involve the concerted action of four major protein complexes known as photosystem II (PSII), cytochrome b6f complex, ATP synthase and photosystem I (PSI).

  6. 4. Survivors of the Sea: Investigating the genomics and survival strategies of the diatom Skeletonema marinoi

    Author : Matthew I. M. Pinder; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Diatoms; Skeletonema marinoi; Resting stages; Bioinformatics; Genomics; Gene expression; Metabarcoding;

    Abstract : Diatoms are an ecologically important group of phytoplankton, responsible for around 20% of global primary production. One of the features contributing to their success is their ability to form resting stages, a response to adverse conditions in which they enter a dormant state and sink to the sediment. READ MORE

  7. 5. 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
