By engineering photosynthetic cyanobacteria to live symbiotically inside yeast cells, the bacteria-yeast hybrids can produce important hydrocarbons, paving new biotechnical pathways to non ...

Microbiologists Rachael Morgan-Kiss and Xin Wang recently received a $750,000 grant from the Department of Energy (DOE) to research how Antarctic algae use an alternative pathway during photosynthesis ...

Among the plant metabolisms in use today, some use significantly more efficient carbon fixation pathways, while others end up wasting a lot of the energy they obtained from photosynthesis with ...

A biohybrid system combines polymer nanosheets with E. coli to improve hydrogen production by capturing near-infrared light ...
