Phylloquinone (PhQ) plays a unique role in photosynthesis as the A1A and A1B intermediates in light-driven electron transfer in Photosystem I (PSI). When PhQ biosynthesis is inhibited by deletion of t...

Abstract. Translation of psbA, the chloroplast gene that encodes the D1 subunit of Photosystem II (PSII), is important for both PSII biogenesis and repair.

Improving photosynthesis under abiotic stress is essential for enhancing crop productivity. Here, Jiang et al. used short-term accelerated evolution in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus to…

Translation of psbA, the chloroplast gene that encodes the D1 subunit of Photosystem II (PSII), is important for both PSII biogenesis and repair. The translation of the psbA transcript in the chloropl...

Directed evolution in cyanobacteria identified genetic changes that improve photosynthesis and biomass yield under salt stress, offering important insights

Translation of psbA, the chloroplast gene that encodes the D1 subunit of Photosystem II (PSII), is important for both PSII biogenesis and repair. The translation of the psbA transcript in the chloropl...

A photosystem I structure binding plastoquinone in its electron transfer chain reveals insight into photosynthesis bioenergetics.
