Abstract excerpt
Aquatic photosynthetic organisms live in quite variable conditions of CO(2) availability. To survive in limiting CO(2) conditions, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and other microalgae show adaptive changes, such as induction of a CO(2)-concentrating mechanism, changes in cell organization, increased photorespiratory enzyme activity, induction of periplasmic carbonic anhydrase and specific polypeptides (mitochondrial...
