Phylogenetic grafting of bacterial red-type Rubisco to enhance green photosynthesis.

    Research output: Contribution to journalLiterature review

    Abstract

    Crystal structure-guided exchange of mobile elements from red algal Rubisco into a related bacterial Rubisco enabled us to identify amino acid substitutions that enhance carbon dioxide (CO2) fixation. In tobacco plants, the improved Rubisco supported a two-fold increase in photosynthetic rates compared with plants producing wild-type bacterial Rubisco.
