Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

A recent study by Chinese scientists has revealed the intricate molecular machinery driving energy exchange within ...

The paper focused on enzymes that help build the photosynthetic chloroplast membranes in plant cells. One of those enzymes is ...

Plants have been using solar energy for millions of years, but advances in machine learning and protein engineering could allow a step-change in their efficiency ...

That process, called carbon fixation, resulted in the assembly of two three-carbon molecules called 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA ...

The macromolecular organization of photosynthetic complexes within the thylakoids of higher plant chloroplasts has been a topic of significant debate. Using in situ cryo-electron tomography, this ...

Like animal cells, basic plant cells have a nucleus, a cell membrane and cytoplasm. They've also got a vacuole, chloroplasts and a cell wall, which are only found in plant cells and they can be a ...

A new part of an ocean plant cell has been discovered that might revolutionize farming one day. The structure can take ...

Furthermore, the institute's research focuses on the interactions between the genomes of mitochondria and chloroplasts and the one of the cell nucleus, as well as on the investigation of epigenetic ...
