Evaluating contrast sensitivity in early and intermediate age-related Macular Degeneration with the Quick Contrast Sensitivity Function

Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe, validate, and compare the contrast sensitivity functions (CSFs) acquired with the novel quick CSF (qCSF) method from patients with early and intermediate age-related macular degeneration (eAMD and iAMD) a ...

The role of xanthophylls in the supramolecular organization of the photosynthetic complex LHCII in lipid membranes studied by high-resolution imaging and nanospectroscopy

Giovanni Dietler, Jiangtao Zhou

The xanthophyll cycle is a regulatory mechanism operating in the photosynthetic apparatus of plants. It consists of the conversion of the xanthophyll pigment violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, and vice versa, in response to light intensity. According to the curre ...

Chromate Resistance Mechanisms in Leucobacter chromiiresistens

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Suvorova Buffat

Chromate is one of the major anthropogenic contaminants on Earth. Leucobacter chromiiresistens is a highly chromate-resistant strain, tolerating chromate concentrations in LB medium of up to 400 mM. In response to chromate stress, L. chromiiresistens forms ...

Kleptoplasty in a shallow water benthic foraminifer, Haynesina germanica

Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

Some benthic foraminifera have the ability to incorporate functional chloroplasts from diatoms (kleptoplasty). Our objective was to investigate kleptoplast cellular organisation, functionality (O2 flux, C and N incorporation), pigment composition and photo ...

Molecular Architecture of Plant Thylakoids under Physiological and Light Stress Conditions: A Study of Lipid-Light-Harvesting Complex II Model Membranes

Giovanni Dietler, Andrzej Kulik

In this study, we analyzed multibilayer lipid-protein membranes composed of the photosynthetic light-harvesting complex II (LHCII; isolated from spinach [Spinacia oleracea]) and the plant lipids monogalcatosyldiacylglycerol and digalactosyldiacylglycerol. ...

Microalgal carotenoid recovery in a biorefinery approach

Christof Holliger, Christian Ludwig, Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Mariluz Bagnoud, Olivier Laurent Emery

Introduction Microalgae culture to be effective as feedstock for bio-energy production needs to overcome constraining biotechnological, technological and economic factors [1]. In order to establish an economically viable process, the co-production of renew ...
