Researchers identified the proteins of a CO2-fixing organelle, namely, 'pyrenoid,' in the marine algal group Chlorarachniophyta and revealed various pyrenoid-associated proteins among algal groups, ...

A new study reveals the surprisingly convergent evolution in the inner ear of mammals. An international research team led by Nicole Grunstra from the University of Vienna and Anne Le Maître from the ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Plants and algae fix carbon through photosynthesis, which converts CO 2 to organic carbon. This biological process is catalyzed by the Rubisco enzyme, the most abundant protein on Earth ...
