Red algal chloroplasts stayed active in hamster cells for 48 hours A new technique enables chloroplast integration into animal cells Study offers potential for photosynthesis in non-plant organisms ...
The team isolated the chloroplasts from algal cells using a centrifuge and gentle stirring. Instead of then piercing the host cells’ membranes, as in earlier work, the researchers adjusted the culture ...
This study describes the second, shortened chloroplast variant of the ribosome-associated molecular chaperone termed trigger factor. While lacking chaperone activity, it rather contributes to ...
Micronutrients (those needed in smaller amounts) include vitamins and minerals. Every nutrient has unique functions. Deficiencies in a specific vitamin or mineral, for example, increase the risk of ...
