Jan. 24, 2023 Under cold conditions, not only the mother plant but also the father plant can pass on its chloroplasts to the ...
Aug. 23, 2022 A research group has found a new class of proteins in the red algae Cyanidioschyzon merolae that are involved in moving proteins across the membranes of chloroplasts -- subcompartments that conduct ...
Oct. 30, 2024 Energy-making chloroplasts from algae have been inserted into hamster cells, enabling the cells to photosynthesize light, according to new research in Japan. It was previously thought that combining ...
Jan. 17, 2023 Is the inside of a plant cell more like a liquid or a solid? While this may sound like an odd question, new research demonstrates it can be either, depending on how much light you shine on it. ...
Dec. 10, 2024 Scientists found molecular evidence supporting the idea that chloroplasts originated as energy-generating organelles and only later evolved to support carbon assimilation in plant ...
Nov. 18, 2024 Too much of a good thing is no good at all. Living organisms enjoy sunlight -- in fact, many need it to stay alive -- but they tend to avoid light that is too bright. Animals go to their shelter, ...
Mar. 4, 2024 Secrets of photosynthesis have been discovered at atomic level, shedding important new light on this plant super-power that greened the earth more than a billion years ...
Mar. 1, 2024 Researchers succeed at generating 3D visualizations of chloroplasts' copying ...
May 17, 2024 Plants have special corrective molecules at their disposal that can make retrospective modifications to copies of genes. However, it would appear that these 'Tipp-Ex proteins' do not have ...
Aug. 5, 2022 A new study challenges a popular scenario put forward to explain the arrival of the first eukaryotic ...
