Introduction of a Synthetic CO2-fixing Photorespiratory Bypass into a Cyanobacterium 2013-020
ABSTRACT: Global photosynthetic productivity is limited by the enzymatic assimilation of CO2 into organic carbon compounds. Ribulose-1,5- bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO), the carboxylating enzyme of the Calvin-Benson (CB) cycle, poorly discriminates between CO2 and O2, leading to photorespiration and the loss of fixed carbon and nitrogen. With the advent of … [Read more...] about Introduction of a Synthetic CO2-fixing Photorespiratory Bypass into a Cyanobacterium 2013-020
Epitaxial Germanium Temperature Sensor IB-1561A
ABSTRACT: A method of making a highly sensitive epitaxial germanium low temperature sensor that is superior in the method of production and performance than those currently available. The geometry and sensitivity of the sensor can be tuned to desired temperature ranges, and specifically can operate at cryogenic temperatures. The sensor can be manufactured uniformly and … [Read more...] about Epitaxial Germanium Temperature Sensor IB-1561A
