Energy is a major driving force for the economic development. Due to the scarcity of fossil
fuels and negative impact on the environment, it is important to develop renewable and …

The rising concentration of global atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) has severely affected
our planet's homeostasis. Efforts are being made worldwide to curb carbon dioxide …

Structural biology studies inside cells and tissues require methods to thin vitrified specimens
to electron transparency. Until now, focused ion beams based on gallium have been used …

Increase in demand for our primary foodstuffs is outstripping increase in yields, an
expanding gap that indicates large potential food shortages by mid-century. This comes at a …

Many eukaryotic photosynthetic organisms enhance their carbon uptake by supplying
concentrated CO2 to the CO2-fixing enzyme Rubisco in an organelle called the pyrenoid …

Chloroplasts are eukaryotic photosynthetic organelles that drive the global carbon cycle.
Despite their importance, our understanding of their protein composition, function, and …

Summary Approximately 30%–40% of global CO 2 fixation occurs inside a non-membrane-
bound organelle called the pyrenoid, which is found within the chloroplasts of most …

Cryo-focused ion beam milling of frozen-hydrated cells has recently provided
unprecedented insights into the inner space of cells. In combination with cryo-electron …

BACKGROUND Channelrhodopsins (ChRs) are naturally occurring light-gated ion channels
that are important for allowing motile algal cells to find suitable light levels. In neuroscience …

Approximately one-third of global CO 2 fixation is performed by eukaryotic algae. Nearly all
algae enhance their carbon assimilation by operating a CO 2-concentrating mechanism …
