What if we could mimic how plants, algae, and bacteria harvest sunlight to create better solar panels? New research published Wednesday in Nature explores the molecular nitty-gritty of photosynthesis, ...

In a recent study published in Nature, a team of researchers examined a process known as Photosystem II, which is the protein complex that photosynthesis uses to harvest sunlight and convert carbon ...

PULLMAN, Wash. - A research team led by Washington State University has created a computer model to understand how plants store energy in the thylakoid membrane, a key structure to photosynthesis in ...

Have you ever taken something apart, like a watch, to see how it works by looking at the parts inside individually? That's not altogether different from a common strategy used by scientists who are ...

Photosynthesis in plants and a few bacteria is responsible for feeding nearly all life on Earth. It allows energy from the sun to be converted into a storable form, usually glucose, which plants use ...

Scientists may have just cracked the code on one of nature's coolest tricks: photosynthesis. If their breakthrough scales, it could revolutionize the way we power the planet. A team from ...

Bengaluru: Researchers from Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have found how plants store energy by understanding the behaviour of electrons inside them, a study that can help design efficient fuel ...

Rhomboid-like protein 10, or RBL10, is thought to be an enzyme that degrades other proteins in the chloroplast membrane, but its function is largely unknown. Researchers are studying how RBL10 affects ...
