Most algae enhance their CO2 assimilation by concentrating CO2 within the pyrenoid, a biomolecular condensate of the CO2-fixing enzyme Rubisco. Man...

We genetically disconnected starch from the matrix in the algal pyrenoid! A saga1;saga2 double mutant lacks a starch sheath! Our model: SAGA1 & SAGA2 locally initiate starch on the pyrenoid surface by enriching starch precursors. šŸŒžšŸ¦ šŸ”¬šŸ”ŒšŸ‘€ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
