Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus are the two most abundant photosynthetic organisms
on Earth, with a strong influence on the biogeochemical carbon and nitrogen cycles. Early …

Aerobic processes require oxygen, and anaerobic processes are typically hindered by it. In
many places in the global ocean, oxygen is completely removed at mid‐water depths …

A single-source reference on the biology of algae, the third edition of Algae: Anatomy,
Biochemistry, and Biotechnology examines the most important taxa and structures for …

Carboxysomes are bacterial microcompartments that encapsulate the enzymes RuBisCO
and carbonic anhydrase in a proteinaceous shell to enhance the efficiency of photosynthetic …

The most ubiquitous cyanobacteria, Synechococcus, have colonized different marine
thermal niches through the evolutionary specialization of lineages adapted to different …

Synechococcus cyanobacteria are ubiquitous and abundant in the marine environment and
contribute to an estimated 16% of the ocean net primary productivity. Their light-harvesting …

Many of us think a lot about oxygen. This includes how the normal body handles oxygen in
health, but particularly how this is complicated by lung disease. Few of us are aware that as …

A hybrid cluster (HC) is a 4Fe cluster with both sulfur and oxygen bridges. Hybrid cluster
proteins (Hcps) contain two 4Fe clusters, a one electron transferring iron-sulfur cluster and a …

Photosynthesis is the major natural process that can harvest and harness solar energy into
chemical energy. Photosynthesis is performed by a vast number of organisms from single …

Gammaproteobacteria of the genus Alteromonas are prominent members of pelagic marine
microbial communities, playing critical roles in the aerobic degradation of particulate organic …
