Linker that joins up Rubisco cuts synthesis of toxic byproduct that plants pay a heavy energy price to deal with ...

One of the most marginalized and in fact understudied plant groups, hornworts, has the potential to provide a long-awaited ...

Scientists studying the plant have discovered a new way to boost the efficiency of rubisco — the enzyme that powers life on Earth — and hope to transfer the trick to crops.

A team of researchers made a groundbreaking discovery that could "turbocharge crop yields," according to the Boyce Thompson Institute. The findings pertained to the unique traits of small land plants ...

Many species of algae pack Rubisco into tiny, specialized compartments inside their cells called pyrenoids —essentially microscopic bubbles that concentrate carbon dioxide around the enzyme, helping ...

Hornworts, a group of small and often overlooked plants, may hold the key to revolutionizing agriculture and combating climate change. These plants possess a unique biological mechanism that ...

You are here because of a single, all-important enzyme. But don’t look inward to find ribulose-­1,5-­bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, known more mercifully ...
