The secondary metabolites produced by algae (including macroalgae and microalgae)
possess several human health benefits. The bioactive compounds in algae have potential to …

Because of their abundance and extensive phosphorylation, numerous thylakoid proteins
stand out amongst the phosphoproteins of plants and algae. In particular, subunits of light …

Proton gradient regulation 5 (PGR5) is involved in the control of photosynthetic electron
transfer, but its mechanistic role is not yet clear. Several models have been proposed to …

Photosynthetic algae have evolved mechanisms to cope with suboptimal light and CO2
conditions. When light energy exceeds CO2 fixation capacity, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii …

Photosynthesis in diatoms is performed using the same basic modules as cyanobacteria
and plants. It can be regulated on multiple levels depending on the environmental cues …

Photosynthetic organisms are frequently exposed to excess light conditions and hence to
photo-oxidative stress. To counteract photo-oxidative damage, land plants and most algae …

Stress and nutrient availability influence cell proliferation through complex intracellular
signalling networks. In a previous study it was found that pyro‐inositol polyphosphates …

Photosystems must balance between light harvesting to fuel the photosynthetic process for
CO2 fixation and mitigating the risk of photodamage due to absorption of light energy in …

The cytochrome b 6 f complex (b 6 f) has been initially considered as the ferredoxin-
plastoquinone reductase (FQR) during cyclic electron flow (CEF) with photosystem I that is …

Availability of light and CO2, substrates of microalgae photosynthesis, is frequently far from
optimal. Microalgae activate photoprotection under strong light, to prevent oxidative …
