Journal Article

Photosynthetic biomanufacturing in green algae; production of recombinant proteins for industrial, nutritional, and medical uses

Rasala, Beth; Mayfield, Stephen

2014 Photosynthesis Research

doi:10.1007/s11120-014-9994-7 pmid:24659086

Recombinant proteins are widely used for industrial, nutritional, and medical applications. Green microalgae have attracted considerable attention recently as a biomanufacturing platform for the production of recombinant proteins for a number of reasons. These photosynthetic eukaryotic...

Engineering photosynthetic organisms for the production of biohydrogen

Dubini, Alexandra; Ghirardi, Maria

2014 Photosynthesis Research

doi:10.1007/s11120-014-9991-x pmid:24671643

Oxygenic photosynthetic organisms such as green algae are capable of absorbing sunlight and converting the chemical energy into hydrogen gas. This process takes advantage of the photosynthetic apparatus of these organisms which links water oxidation to H2 production. Biological H2 has therefore...

Algal omics: unlocking bioproduct diversity in algae cell factories

Guarnieri, Michael; Pienkos, Philip

2014 Photosynthesis Research

doi:10.1007/s11120-014-9989-4 pmid:24627032

Rapid advances in “omic” technologies are helping to unlock the full potential of microalgae as multi-use feedstocks, with utility in an array of industrial biotechnology, biofuel, and biomedical applications. In turn, algae are emerging as highly attractive candidates for development as...

Toward a photosynthetic microbial platform for terpenoid engineering

Davies, Fiona; Jinkerson, Robert; Posewitz, Matthew

2014 Photosynthesis Research

doi:10.1007/s11120-014-9979-6 pmid:24510550

Plant terpenoids are among the most diverse group of naturally-occurring organic compounds known, and several are used in contemporary consumer products. Terpene synthase enzymes catalyze complex rearrangements of carbon skeleton precursors to yield thousands of unique chemical structures that...

Engineering cyanobacteria as photosynthetic feedstock factories

Hays, Stephanie; Ducat, Daniel

2014 Photosynthesis Research

doi:10.1007/s11120-014-9980-0 pmid:24526260

Carbohydrate feedstocks are at the root of bioindustrial production and are needed in greater quantities than ever due to increased prioritization of renewable fuels with reduced carbon footprints. Cyanobacteria possess a number of features that make them well suited as an alternative feedstock...

Research and development for algae-based technologies in Korea: a review of algae biofuel production

Hong, Ji; Jo, Seung-Woo; Yoon, Ho-Sung

2014 Photosynthesis Research

doi:10.1007/s11120-014-9974-y pmid:24496987

This review covers recent research and development (R&D) activities in the field of algae-based biofuels in Korea. As South Korea’s energy policy paradigm has focused on the development of green energies, the government has funded several algae biofuel R&D consortia and pilot projects. Three...

Journal Article

The place of algae in agriculture: policies for algal biomass production

Trentacoste, Emily; Martinez, Alice; Zenk, Tim

2014 Photosynthesis Research

doi:10.1007/s11120-014-9985-8 pmid:24599393

Algae have been used for food and nutraceuticals for thousands of years, and the large-scale cultivation of algae, or algaculture, has existed for over half a century. More recently algae have been identified and developed as renewable fuel sources, and the cultivation of algal biomass for...
