This article reviews the utilization of first and second-generation biofuels as the suitable
alternatives to depleting fossil fuels. Then the concern has been presented over a debate on …

Microalgae have the potential to revolutionize biotechnology in a number of areas including
nutrition, aquaculture, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels. Although algae have been …

While photosynthesis transforms sunlight energy into sugar, aerobic and anaerobic
respiration (fermentation) catabolizes sugars to fuel cellular activities. These processes take …

The high rate of depletion of fossil fuels and the negative effects caused by their use in
industries and combustion engines are calling for biofuels. Alternatively, plant, algae and …

Green microalgae are able to sustain hydrogen evolution in the light under nutrient
deprivation conditions. In the current study, the role of hydrogen photoproduction in the …

In the present scenario, petroleum sourced fuel consumption is unsustainable; therefore,
there is a high demand for the development of renewable transport fuels for environmental …

Recombinant proteins are extensively used for a growing number of fields in biology.
However, microalgal species have not been widely adopted as cell factories for recombinant …

We describe a genetically engineered strain of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii where the PsbH
subunit of Photosystem II (PSII) has been modified to include a C-terminal polyhistidine tag …

The chloroplast ATP synthase gates the flow of protons out of the thylakoid lumen. In
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii deletion of any of the genes for the ATP synthase subunits, or …

This work focuses on the development of a molecular tool for purification of Photosystem II
(PSII) from Nicotiana tabacum (L.). To this end, the chloroplast psbB gene encoding the …
