Quality control in synthetic photosynthesis validates natural light-harvesting mimicry
Osaka, Japan (SPX) Oct 29, 2024
Humans can do many impressive things, but plants possess a unique ability: they directly convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. Now, recent research suggests scientists are narrowing the gap in replicating this process artificially. Researchers from Osaka Metropolitan University have successfully mapped the 3D structure of an artificial photosynthetic antenna protein complex,
