The Chlamydomonas Sourcebook: Volume 2: Organellar and Metabolic Processes

The Chlamydomonas Sourcebook, Third Edition, Volume Two: Organellar and Metabolic Processes has been fully revised and updated to include a wealth of new resources for the Chlamydomonas community. Long known for its comprehensive insights into this highly multidisciplinary topic, this edition includes new views on Chlamydomonas branched electron transfer pathways in photosynthesis, the organization of pyrenoids and CO2 concentration mechanisms, and the fermentative-aspects of dark metabolism. Further, the book covers Chlamydomonas and its use in microalgae biotechnology. In addition to updates to previous editions, this book presents the latest in research and best practices, thus making it a must-have resource for those working with the Chlamydomonas organism. Describes molecular techniques, analysis of the recently sequenced genome, and reviews of the current status of the diverse fields in which Chlamydomonas is used as a model organism Provides methods for Chlamydomonas research and best practices for applications in research, including methods for culture, preservation of cultures, preparation of media, lists of inhibitors, and other additives to culture media Assists researchers with common laboratory problems such as contamination INDICE: 1. Biogenesis of chloroplasts and mitochondria 2. Chloroplast-based Photosynthesis including new frontiers in non-photochemical quenching, carbon concentrating mechanisms, liquid-like structure of pyrenoids, alternative routes in electron flow 3. Respiration 4. Photoreceptors from physiological functions to optogenetics 5. Phosphate; from acclimation to energy metabolism 6. Starch biosynthesis 7. Sulfur and nitrogen metabolism 8. Response to heavy metals 9. Lipid synthesis, membrane structure and biological function 10. The green lineage; phylogeny to function 11. Chlamydomonas in the wild 12. Fermentation and life in the soil 13. Algae as a promise for bioenergy, from biofuels, to biocurrents and hydrogen production
