Tang K, Tang Y, Blankenship R
Front Microbiol . 2011 Aug; 2:165. PMID: 21866228
Photosynthesis is the biological process that converts solar energy to biomass, bio-products, and biofuel. It is the only major natural solar energy storage mechanism on Earth. To satisfy the increased...

BMC Genomics . 2011 Jul; 12:334. PMID: 21714912
Background: Chloroflexus aurantiacus is a thermophilic filamentous anoxygenic phototrophic (FAP) bacterium, and can grow phototrophically under anaerobic conditions or chemotrophically under aerobic and dark conditions. According to 16S rRNA analysis,...

Tang K, Blankenship R
Photosynth Res . 2011 Jun; 111(1-2):205-17. PMID: 21710338
Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) have been employed in studying the structural information of various biological systems, particularly in systems without high-resolution structural information available. In...

Tang K, Zhu L, Urban V, Collins A, Biswas P, Blankenship R
Langmuir . 2011 Mar; 27(8):4816-28. PMID: 21405043
Chlorosomes, the peripheral light-harvesting antenna complex from green photosynthetic bacteria, are the largest and one of the most efficient light-harvesting antenna complexes found in nature. In contrast to other light-harvesting...

Tang K, Urban V, Wen J, Xin Y, Blankenship R
Biophys J . 2010 Oct; 99(8):2398-407. PMID: 20959079
Green photosynthetic bacteria harvest light and perform photosynthesis in low-light environments, and contain specialized antenna complexes to adapt to this condition. We performed small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) studies to obtain...

Feng X, Tang K, Blankenship R, Tang Y
J Biol Chem . 2010 Oct; 285(50):39544-50. PMID: 20937805
The photosynthetic green sulfur bacterium Chlorobaculum tepidum assimilates CO(2) and organic carbon sources (acetate or pyruvate) during mixotrophic growth conditions through a unique carbon and energy metabolism. Using a (13)C-labeling...

Tang K, Feng X, Zhuang W, Alvarez-Cohen L, Blankenship R, Tang Y
J Biol Chem . 2010 Sep; 285(45):35104-12. PMID: 20807773
The recently discovered heliobacteria are the only Gram-positive photosynthetic bacteria that have been cultured. One of the unique features of heliobacteria is that they have properties of both the photosynthetic...

Tang K, Blankenship R
J Biol Chem . 2010 Jul; 285(46):35848-54. PMID: 20650900
The anoxygenic green sulfur bacteria (GSBs) assimilate CO(2) autotrophically through the reductive (reverse) tricarboxylic acid (RTCA) cycle. Some organic carbon sources, such as acetate and pyruvate, can be assimilated during...

Tang K, Yue H, Blankenship R
BMC Microbiol . 2010 May; 10:150. PMID: 20497547
Background: Heliobacterium modesticaldum is a gram-positive nitrogen-fixing phototrophic bacterium that can grow either photoheterotrophically or chemotrophically but not photoautotrophically. Surprisingly, this organism is lacking only one gene for the complete...

Tang K, Feng X, Tang Y, Blankenship R
PLoS One . 2009 Oct; 4(10):e7233. PMID: 19794911
The Roseobacter clade of aerobic marine proteobacteria, which compose 10-25% of the total marine bacterial community, has been reported to fix CO(2), although it has not been determined what pathway...
