ATP, the compound essential for the functioning of photosynthetic organisms such as plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, is produced by an enzyme called “chloroplast ATP synthase” (CF o CF 1). To control ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Decreasing relative water content (RWC) of leaves progressively decreases stomatal conductance (gs), slowing CO₂ assimilation (A) which ...

Biologists demonstrate how the auxiliary factor CGL160 contributes to the synthesis of crucial parts of the photosynthetic machinery. LMU biologists demonstrate how the auxiliary factor CGL160 ...

(up) Schematics of the artificial photosynthetic cell encapsulating artificial organelle consists of ATP synthase and bacteriorhodopsin. The artificial organelle synthesizes ATP by light illumination.

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts found within cells. It is the chloroplasts that contain the green pigment chlorophyll which absorbs light. The plant uses this glucose to grow as well as make ...

A tiny insect called the pea aphid might be one of the only animals to turn sunlight into energy like a plant. Scientists say they've found evidence suggesting that the insect (Acyrthosiphon pisum) ...

Plants and trees may seem pretty passive, but behind the scenes, their cells are working hard to put on a magic show. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we’ll explore how the processes of ...

The redox regulation mechanism responsible for efficient production of ATP under varying light conditions in photosynthetic organisms has now been unveiled. Researchers investigated the enzyme ...
