Scientists Created Solar-Powered Animal Cells by Combining Choloplasts From Algae and Hamster Cells
A team from the University of Tokyo has successfully created hybrid animal cells that can generate energy from sunlight. By integrating chloroplasts from the red algae Cyanidioschyzon merolae into Chinese hamster cells, the researchers demonstrated that these cells can sustain photosynthesis for up to 48 hours. This breakthrough could have signific...

Scientists Reveals New Method to Analyse 3D Structure of Artificial Photosynthetic Antenna
Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have successfully identified the 3D structure of an artificial light-harvesting complex II (LHCII). This structure mimics the natural LHCII found in plants and plays a critical role in photosynthesis. Using in vitro reconstitution and cryo-electron microscopy, the team demonstrated that the artificial co...

Artificial Photosynthesis Developed to Help Make Food Production More Energy-Efficient
Researchers have developed artificial photosynthesis using a two-step electrocatalytic process to convert carbon dioxide, electricity, and water into acetate, the form of the main component of vinegar. This way bypasses the need for biological photosynthesis altogether.

First Artificial Photosynthesis System To Produce Fuel
Scientists in Germany have developed the first complete and compact artificial photosynthesis system that uses solar power to split water and produce hydrogen fuel.

Bacterium Trained To Perform Artificial Photosynthesis
Scientists have successfully trained bacteria to perform photosynthesis - despite being non-photosynthetic, an advance that could lead to the next generation of solar-to-chemical conversion technologies.
