Plant organellar RNA metabolism is run by a multitude of nucleus-encoded RNA-binding
proteins (RBPs) that control RNA stability, processing, and degradation. In chloroplasts and …

Photosynthesis started to evolve some 3.5 billion years ago CO2 is the substrate for
photosynthesis and in the past 200–250 years, atmospheric levels have approximately …

Optogenetics is a technique employing natural or genetically engineered photoreceptors in
transgene organisms to manipulate biological activities with light. Light can be turned on or …

Abstract The Orange Carotenoid Protein (OCP) is a unique photoreceptor crucial for
cyanobacterial photoprotection. Best studied Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 OCP belongs to …

Optogenetic actuators have revolutionized the resolution at which biological processes can
