Engineering enhanced enzyme variants to boost photosynthesis in C4 plants
Major food and biofuel crops maize, sugarcane and sorghum utilise a specialised type of photosynthesis termed C4 photosynthesis, in which carbon is first fixed into a four-carbon compound by phospho<i>enol</i>pyruvate carboxylase (PEPC). The enzymatic rate of PEPC limits the rate of phot...
