Happy to help out a bit on this cool study about a membrane-remodeling protein that enables CO2 delivery to Rubisco at the center of the Chlamy pyrenoid, powering efficient carbon fixation 🌍. Great #CryoET work by Hao and Martin — Welcome to #TeamTomo!! ❄️🔬 🧪

The algal pyrenoid turbocharges global CO2 fixation. Central to its function are specialized membranes that deliver CO2. We discovered that the protein RBMP2 makes these membranes—and found that the mysterious minitubules appear to enhance CO₂ delivery! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
