The introduction of the carboxysome‐based CO2 concentrating mechanism (CCM) into crop
plants has been modelled to significantly increase crop yields. This projection serves as …

Global demand for food may rise by 60% mid‐century. A central challenge is to meet this
need using less land in a changing climate. Nearly all crop carbon is assimilated through …

Carboxysomes are critically important cellular compartments where as much as 25% of
global CO2 assimilation occurs (1, 2). These proteinaceous “organelles” operate within the …

Autotrophy is the basis for complex life on Earth. Central to this process is rubisco—the
enzyme that catalyzes almost all carbon fixation on the planet. Yet, with only a small fraction …

Some bacteria possess microcompartments that function as protein-based organelles.
Bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) sequester enzymes to optimize metabolic reactions …

Crop physiology is a bridge between plant science and agronomy. Historically, crop
physiology uses advanced technologies that rely on biochemical and biophysical plant traits …

Abstract Rubisco (ribulose 1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) is the central enzyme
for converting atmospheric CO2 into organic molecules, playing a crucial role in the global …

Carboxysomes are protein-based organelles that serve as the centerpiece of the bacterial
CO 2 concentration mechanism (CCM). They are present in all cyanobacteria and many …
