Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!
Explore the evolutionary trajectory of Form I Rubisco, the predominant CO2-fixing enzyme, in this 49-minute webinar presented by Luca Schulz, a graduate student at the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology. Delve into the challenges of studying Rubisco's evolution, focusing on the development of the small subunit (SSU) that has become essential for the enzyme's solubility and activity in modern plants and algae. Learn about the research aimed at deciphering how the obligate interaction between Rubisco and its SSU evolved, using techniques such as ancestral sequence reconstruction and mass photometry. Gain insights into carbon fixation processes and their significance in understanding plant and algal biology. Participate in this educational opportunity to earn PACE credits and expand your knowledge of enzyme evolution and biochemistry.
