A promiscuous algal Rubisco binding protein that binds to the large subunit, can condense plant Rubiscos and functionally complement an epyc1 mutant. Congrats @james_r_barrett + great team effort @Mihris_N,@mjplevin,@McCormick_Lab,@JNB_lab,@YorkBioimaging.

A blueprint of the diatom pyrenoid reveals a Rubisco encapsulating protein Shell is critical for CO2 fixation. Is it essential for global NPP? Congrats to @OnyouNam,@james_r_barrett,@ItsCarolineMck,@JNB_lab + great collab with @DemulderManon,@bengeliscious.

Another major hurdle overcame in plant pyrenoid engineering to enhance CO2 fixation - how to traverse the Rubisco condensate with thylakoid membranes. Congratulations @JonikasLab @McCormick_Lab @JHennacy @NickyJAtkinson.
Excited to share our latest preprint!.Biogenesis, engineering and function of membranes in the CO2-fixing pyrenoid.

Great to be part of this multi-disciplinary project. See the insightful thread by @CharlSchaef explaining how we worked across disciplines to predict phase diagrams that we experimentally validated #pyrenoid.

A game changer in chloroplast engineering. We are already hugely benefitting from the tools. Well worth reading the thread to see how it was achieved.
Very excited to share the preprint of a big chapter of my PhD, where I am corresponding & shared first author (together with @gitanguy) about advancing #chloroplast #synbio through high-throughput plastome engineering of #Chlamydomonas:.Below in a 🧵:.

CsLinker: an algal pyrenoid assembly protein that binds the RbcL, complements across 800 My of evolution and phase separates plant Rubisco. Very excited to share this work by @james_r_barrett, @JNB_lab, @mjplevin, @BPSIYork, @McCormick_Lab. @JonikasLab
