Diatoms are prominent and highly diverse microalgae in aquatic environments. Compared
with other diatom species, Phaeodactylum tricornutum is an “atypical diatom” displaying …

Photosynthesis has been using energy from sunlight to assimilate atmospheric CO2 for at
least 3.5 billion years. Through evolution and natural selection, photosynthetic organisms …

Diatoms often outnumber other eukaryotic algae in the oceans, especially in coastal
environments characterized by frequent fluctuations in light intensity. The identities and …

It is still challenging to develop multi–step cascaded artificial light–harvesting systems
(ALHSs) with tunable efficiency. Here, we designed novel cascaded ALHSs with AIE–active …

Efficiently balancing photochemistry and photoprotection is crucial for survival and
productivity of photosynthetic organisms in the rapidly fluctuating light levels found in natural …

Diatoms are a highly diverse group of eukaryotic phytoplankton responsible for about 25%
of the total world oxygen production. The photosynthetic apparatus and the associated light …

Diatoms are an important group of eukaryotic phytoplankton, responsible for about a quarter
of CO 2 fixation on Earth. Oxygenic photosynthesis uses the same building blocks …

Fucoxanthin (FX), a primary carotenoid, is associated with the fucoxanthin-chlorophyll a/c
binding protein (FCP) complex integrated into the thylakoid membrane (TM) which functions …

Many important processes in cells depend on the transfer of protons through water wires
embedded in transmembrane proteins. Herein, we have performed more than 55 μs all-atom …

Diatoms are successful phytoplankton clades able to acclimate to changing environmental
conditions, including eg variable light intensity. Diatoms are outstanding at dissipating light …
