If I had the chance to choose all over again, I wouldn’t want to meet him. Not because our story isn’t worth telling, but because it’s the kind of story that leaves you both breathless and broken. It wasn’t a meet-cute straight out of a rom-com; our meeting was carefully orchestrated by friends who believed we might be good for each other, even when we weren’t sure ourselves.

AbstractRegulation of CO2 fixation in cyanobacteria is important both for the organism and global carbon balance. Here we show that phosphoketolase in Synechococcus elongatus PCC7942 (SeXPK) possesses a distinct ATP-sensing mechanism, where a drop in ATP level allows SeXPK to divert precursors of the RuBisCO substrate away from the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle. Deleting the SeXPK gene increased CO2 fixation particularly during light–dark transitions.
