• Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, unknown): “Two additional genes are present in all β-cyanobacteria which encode proteins (CcmM and CcmN) that form a complex and are believed to play organizational roles in the interior of the shell (Ludwig et al., 2000; Kinney et al., 2012).”
• Advances in understanding the cyanobacterial CO2-concentrating-mechanism (CCM): functional components, Ci transporters, diversity, genetic regulation and prospects for engineering into plants. (2008, background): “It has been speculated that the SSU-like repeats could have a role in the binding of CcmM to the L8 cores of L8S8 Rubisco, possibly allowing the formation of protein associations in the carboxysome shell (Price et al., 1993; Ludwig et al., 2000).”
• CO2 concentrating mechanisms in cyanobacteria: molecular components, their diversity and evolution. (2003, background): “There are no clearly proven gamma-CAs in any of the cyanobacteria, although the CcmM protein in b-cyanobacteria has an amino terminal domain that could potentially contain an alphaCA active site (Ludwig et al., 2000) and ferripyochelin has some homology to gamma CA enzymes (Smith and Ferry, 2000).”
• CO2 concentrating mechanisms in algae: mechanisms, environmental modulation, and evolution. (2005, background): “The CO2 generated by this CA builds up to a higher steady-state concentration in the carboxysomes than in the bulk medium, thus strongly favoring the carboxylase over the oxygenase activity of RUBISCO (83, 100).”
