TL;DR: It is found that the protein stoichiometry, diameter, localization, and mobility patterns of carboxysomes in cells depend sensitively on the microenvironmental levels of CO2 and light intensity during cell growth, revealing cellular strategies of dynamic regulation.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that β-carboxysome biosynthesis is accelerated in response to increasing light intensity, thereby enhancing the carbon fixation activity of the cell, and essential knowledge is provided for design and synthetic engineering of functional carboxysomes into higher plants to improve photosynthesis performance and CO2 fixation.

TL;DR: Investigation of the in vivo function of RbcX in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 using molecular, biochemical, and live-cell fluorescence imaging approaches shows that genetic deletion of the rbcX gene affects Rubisco abundance, as well as carboxesome formation and spatial distribution.

TL;DR: It is shown that Raf1 mediates Rubisco assembly; without Raf1, carboxysome proteins are prone to form intermediate assemblies and small car boxysome-like structures rather than intact carboxesomes, suggesting a model of the Raf1-mediated biogenesis of carboxYSomes.

TL;DR: Functional annotation suggested that these CNVRs possess a great variety of molecular function and may play important roles in phenotypic and production traits between Chinese and western breeds, and facilitate further research on porcine genome CNVs.
