Current Research Directions.
Thiomicrospira crunogena.
Small bacterium, big things to teach us about the evolution and physiology of carbon fixation. Image by K. Scott and M. Bright.
RubisCOs of the Sea. Oddball RubisCOs from the ocean and how studying them might help us understand the global carbon cycle better. Image of Emiliania huxleyi by Claudia Sprengel and Jeremy Young. What is RubisCO? Is it a company that makes crackers? What are stable carbon isotope ratios? What is the link between stable carbon isotope ratios and carbon fixation?
