Installation of cyanobacterial bicarbonate transporters to the inner envelope membrane
(IEM) of chloroplasts in C3 plants has been thought to improve photosynthetic performance …

Most major crops used for human consumption are C3 plants, which yields are limited by
photosynthetic inefficiency. To circumvent this, it has been proposed to implement the …

To improve the photosynthetic performance of C3 plants, installing cyanobacterial
bicarbonate transporters to the chloroplast inner envelope membrane (IEM) has been …

The ATP-driven bicarbonate transporter 1 (BCT1), a four-component complex in the
cyanobacterial CO2-concentrating mechanism, could enhance photosynthetic CO2 …

Improving global yields of agricultural crops is a complex challenge with evidence indicating
benefits in productivity are achieved by enhancing photosynthetic carbon assimilation …

Cyanobacterial HCO3-transporters BCT1, SbtA and BicA are important components of
cyanobacterial CO2-concentration mechanisms. They also show potential in applications …

Bicarbonate transporters play essential roles in pH homeostasis in mammals and
photosynthesis in aquatic photoautotrophs. A number of bicarbonate transporters have been …

Heterologous synthesis of a biophysical CO2-concentrating mechanism (CCM) in plant
chloroplasts offers significant potential to improve the photosynthetic efficiency of C3 plants …

LCIA (low CO2-inducible protein A) is a chloroplast envelope protein associated with the
CO2-concentrating mechanism of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. LCIA is …

The photosynthetic CO2-fixing enzyme Rubisco arose some 3.5 billion years ago, in an
environment when CO2 was high and oxygen (O2) was low. Under these conditions, it was …
