Algal pyrenoids—condensates that mediate ~1/3 of Earth’s CO2 fixation—change size and number as cells divide. Our data suggest a simple control mechanism: a kinase that continuously ejects material from the condensate! ☀️🌍🔬💧 #Biophysics #Photosynthesis biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our preprint on the interplay between algal CO2 concentrating mechanism and photorespiration is now available. We have identified LCI20 as a new player in algal photorespiration that delivers amino groups for mitochondrial glycolate metabolism. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/3


2D classes looking promising! 🤞

Quantifying the contribution of the main electron flow pathways to algal CO2 fixation.


Super happy to have contributed in a small way to this monumental effort by René et al.! This is a really amazing piece of work that significantly advances our ability to engineer chloroplasts.

Very excited to share the preprint of a big chapter of my PhD, where I am corresponding & shared first author (together with @gitanguy) about advancing #chloroplast #synbio through high-throughput plastome engineering of #Chlamydomonas: Below in a 🧵: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
