Carboxysomes are CO 2-fixing protein compartments present in all cyanobacteria and some
proteobacteria. These structures are attractive candidates for carbon assimilation …

Cyanobacteria are attractive candidates for photoautotrophic production of platform
chemicals due to their inherent ability to utilize carbon dioxide as the sole carbon source …

Propane is a major component of liquefied petroleum gas, a major energy source for off-grid
communities and industry. The replacement of fossil fuel-derived propane with more …

Using dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) as a major carbon source, as autotrophs do, is
complicated by the bedeviling nature of this substance. Autotrophs using the Calvin-Benson …

Two sulphur-oxidizing, chemolithoautotrophic aerobes were isolated from the chemocline of
an anchialine sinkhole located within the Weeki Wachee River of Florida. Gram-stain …

Thiotrophic symbioses between sulphur‐oxidizing bacteria and various unicellular and
metazoan eukaryotes are widespread in reducing marine environments. The giant colonial …

The primary source of carbon supporting terrestrial and aquatic life is CO 2 fixed by Rubisco
in the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle (CBB). This chapter describes the tremendous …

It is widely acknowledged that having experience conducting research is invaluable for
undergraduate science students. Most undergraduate research is undertaken by students in …

In nature, concentrations of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC; CO2+ HCO3−+ CO32−) can be
low, and autotrophic organisms adapt with a variety of mechanisms to elevate intracellular …

Carboxysomes, responsible for a substantial fraction of CO2 fixation on Earth, are
proteinaceous microcompartments found in many autotrophic members of domain Bacteria …
