Tianpei Li,Qiuyao Jiang,Jiafeng Huang,Jiafeng Huang,Catherine M. Aitchison,Fang Huang,Mengru Yang,Gregory F. Dykes,Hai Lun He,Qiang Wang,Qiang Wang,Reiner Sebastian Sprick,Andrew I. Cooper,Lu-Ning Liu,Lu-Ning Liu +14 more
TL;DR: This study develops strategies for enzyme activation, shell self-assembly, and cargo encapsulation to construct a robust nanoreactor that incorporates catalytically active [FeFe]-hydrogenases and functional partners within the empty shell for the production of hydrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decoding the stoichiometric composition and organisation of bacterial metabolosomes.
Mengru Yang,Deborah M. Simpson,Nicolas Wenner,Philip Brownridge,Victoria M. Harman,Jay C. D. Hinton,Robert J. Beynon,Lu-Ning Liu,Lu-Ning Liu +8 more
TL;DR: The authors here define the protein stoichiometry and propose an organizational model of a Salmonella Pdu MCP, an organisational model of the Pdu metabolosome based on mass spectrometry-based absolute quantification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineering and Modulating Functional Cyanobacterial CO2-Fixing Organelles.
TL;DR: This is the first production of functional β-carboxysome-like structures in heterologous organisms and strengthens the synthetic biology toolbox for generating BMC-based organelles with tunable activities and new scaffolding biomaterials for metabolic improvement and molecule delivery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protein stoichiometry, structural plasticity and regulation of bacterial microcompartments.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight recent advances in understanding the protein composition and stoichiometry of BMCs, with a particular focus on carboxysomes and propanediol utilization microcompartments.
