A new review from Osaka Metropolitan University (OMU) summarizes the biocatalysts involved in semi-artificial photosynthesis, ...

Scientists transplant photosynthetic nanoparticles into rats and rabbits with degenerative diseases to boost energy, restore ...

Grist reports that researchers found hornwort can enhance the efficiency of rubisco, potentially increasing crop yields by up ...

A new study from Osaka Metropolitan University reveals how a freshwater alga extends its reach into far-red light by ...

Present day life fully depends on photosynthetic organisms like plants and algae that capture and convert CO 2. At the heart of these processes lies an enzyme called Rubisco that captures more than ...

A research team led by the University of Bern has decoded a mechanism by which an inconspicuous succulent regulates the ...

Polydopamine nanosheets mimic natural photosynthesis, improving charge separation and stability for efficient hydrogen production in solar fuel applications.

Unlike us, plants don't need pantries full of food to stay alive; the Sun is their pantry. But, like us, they require fairly regular sustenance, which they create via photosynthesis. This seemingly ...

Sunlight drives nearly all life on Earth, but much remains a mystery about the light-harvesting molecules on which biology depends in photosynthesis. In a new study published online June 14 in the ...

Researchers find that the earliest bacteria had the tools to perform a crucial step in photosynthesis, changing how we think life evolved on Earth. Researchers find that the earliest bacteria had the ...

The earliest oxygen-producing microbes may not have been cyanobacteria. Ancient microbes may have been producing oxygen through photosynthesis a billion years earlier than we thought, which means ...

While solar cells and wind turbines are the devices many people will think of for off-grid electricity production, the development of practical artificial photosynthesis for the creation of hydrogen ...
