Abstract excerpt
Some microalgae, such as Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, harbor a highly flexible photosynthetic apparatus capable of using different electron acceptors, including carbon dioxide (CO2), protons, or oxygen (O2), allowing survival in diverse habitats. During anaerobic induction of photosynthesis, molecular O2 is produced at photosystem II, while at the photosystem I acceptor side, the reduction of protons into hydrogen...
