Oxygen is a natural acceptor of electrons in the respiratory pathway of aerobic organisms
and in many other biochemical reactions. Aerobic metabolism is always associated with the …

Cyanobacteria have evolved elaborate electron transport pathways to carry out
photosynthesis and respiration, and to dissipate excess energy in order to limit cellular …

The photosynthetic electron flux from photosystem I (PSI) is mainly directed to NADP+ and
CO2 fixation, but a fraction is always shared between alternative and cyclic electron …

Cyanobacterial flavodiiron proteins (FDPs; A-type flavoprotein, Flv) comprise, besides the β-
lactamase–like and flavodoxin domains typical for all FDPs, an extra NAD (P) H: flavin …

RNA-seq and especially differential RNA-seq-type transcriptomic analyses (dRNA-seq) are
powerful analytical tools, as they not only provide insights into gene expression changes but …

Agriculture is facing a massive increase in demand per hectare as a result of an ever-
expanding population and environmental deterioration. While we have learned much about …

Oxygenic photosynthetic organisms experience strong fluctuations in light intensity in their
natural terrestrial and aquatic growth environments. Recent studies with both plants and …

Barcoded mutant libraries are a powerful tool for elucidating gene function in microbes,
particularly when screened in multiple growth conditions. Here, we screened a pooled …

During oxygenic photosynthesis, the reducing power generated by light energy conversion
is mainly used to reduce carbon dioxide. In bacteria and archae, flavodiiron (Flv) proteins …

Photosynthetic organisms support cell metabolism by harvesting sunlight to fuel the
photosynthetic electron transport. The flow of excitation energy and electrons in the …
