Implementation of synthetic photorespiratory
pathways into cyanobacteria
Photosynthetic carbon fixation is constrained by the oxygenase activity of Rubisco, which initiates photorespiration, a process that imposes significant energetic and but their integration into central metabolism remains poorly understood. Here, we introduced synthetic photorespiratory pathways into a photorespiration-impaired strain of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus. Multi-omics analysis was used to reveal the metabolic changes in the engineered strains.
