We included RbcX in one of our chloroplast transformation vectors because it has been shown to enhance the assembly of the LSU core complex before formation of the final hexadecameric complex 9.

If you want to gorge yourself on protein, as many people do these days, you have options like beef and chicken, soy and legumes, protein powders, and, of course, leaves. The last one may not be ...

As global food and energy demand continues to grow, researchers are exploring multiple strategies to boost crop productivity. While engineering plant enzymes and biochemical pathways that are more ...

Rubisco is arguably the most abundant—and most important—protein on Earth. This enzyme drives photosynthesis, the process that plants use to convert sunlight into energy to fuel crop growth and yield.

Rubisco. Molecular model of the enzyme rubisco (ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase) complexed with ribulose-1,5-biphosphate. Rubisco is thought to be the most abundant and important protein ...

Without photosynthesis, life as we know it wouldn't exist on earth. When plants convert light energy into chemical energy, they release oxygen as a by-product. But over the past millennia, they've ...

A team of researchers discovered an imperfection in how Rubisco functions in cowpea and how they can improve it across crops to increase productivity. All of the carbon in our bodies, in food, and in ...

You are here because of a single, all-important enzyme. But don’t look inward to find ribulose-­1,5-­bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, known more mercifully ...

As part of the Tansley Review, the trio discuss their own research in increasing Rubisco in sorghum, as shown in these 2023 field trials. The authors believe improving rubisco could be part of ...

Researchers used a mathematical model to gain insight into possibly building Rubisco compartments in crop plants to assist in increasing yield productivity. Rubisco is arguably the most abundant -- ...
