Fantastic new study charting the molecular atlas of #CO2 fixing compartments in seaweed! Yet another convergently evolved pyrenoid, with its own distinct Rubisco linker and binding site. There really is a "molecular kaleidoscope of pyrenoid diversity (™️Oliver M-C)" 🙌 @james-r-barrett.bsky.social 🌊🌾🧪
Jonas Blomme@jonasblomme.bsky.social · 3w agoExcited to share our latest preprint on #PhycologyFriday. We map out the carbon fixation pathway for the first time in a multicellular alga, the green seaweed Ulva, and reveal a unique Rubisco-Linker interaction in the pyrenoid, a chloroplast condensate. Below I summarize some key points. #seaweeds
