Laboratory evolution of Rubisco solubility and catalytic switches to enhance plant productivity.

Nature plants - 1 Sept 2025

Abstract excerpt

A new Escherichia coli laboratory evolution screen for detecting plant ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) mutations with enhanced CO2-fixation capacity has identified substitutions that can enhance plant productivity. Selected were a large subunit catalytic (Met-116-Leu) mutation that increases the kcatc of varying plant Rubiscos by 25% to 40% and a solubility (Ala-242-Val) mutation that...
