Weerasooriya H, Longstreth D, DiMario R, Rosati V, Cassel B, Moroney J
Front Mol Biosci . 2024 Mar; 11:1267046. PMID: 38455761
Plants have many genes encoding both alpha and beta type carbonic anhydrases. Arabidopsis has eight alpha type and six beta type carbonic anhydrase genes. Individual carbonic anhydrases are localized to...

DiMario R, Kophs A, Apalla A, Schnable J, Cousins A
Ann Bot . 2023 Sep; 132(3):413-428. PMID: 37675505
Background And Aims: Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase (PEPC) catalyses the irreversible carboxylation of PEP with bicarbonate to produce oxaloacetate. This reaction powers the carbon-concentrating mechanism (CCM) in plants that perform C4...

Weerasooriya H, DiMario R, Rosati V, Rai A, LaPlace L, Filloon V, et al.
Plant Physiol . 2022 Sep; 190(4):2173-2186. PMID: 36149291
Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are zinc-metalloenzymes that catalyze the interconversion of CO2 and HCO3-. In heterotrophic organisms, CAs provide HCO3- for metabolic pathways requiring a carboxylation step. Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) has...

Pathare V, DiMario R, Koteyeva N, Cousins A
New Phytol . 2022 Aug; 236(4):1281-1295. PMID: 35959528
Mesophyll CO conductance (g ) in C species responds to short-term (minutes) changes in environment potentially due to changes in leaf anatomical and biochemical properties and measurement artefacts. Compared with...

Rai A, DiMario R, Kasili R, Groszmann M, Cousins A, Donze D, et al.
Plants (Basel) . 2022 Jul; 11(14). PMID: 35890517
In recent years, researchers have attempted to improve photosynthesis by introducing components from cyanobacterial and algal CO2-concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) into terrestrial C3 plants. For these attempts to succeed, we need...

DiMario R, Giuliani R, Ubierna N, Slack A, Cousins A, Studer A
Plant Cell Environ . 2022 Mar; 45(5):1382-1397. PMID: 35233800
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) performs the first enzymatic step of C photosynthesis by catalysing the reversible hydration of dissolved CO that diffuses into mesophyll cells from intercellular airspaces. This CA-catalysed reaction...

DiMario R, Kophs A, Pathare V, Schnable J, Cousins A
Plant J . 2020 Dec; 105(6):1677-1688. PMID: 33345397
The high rates of photosynthesis and the carbon-concentrating mechanism (CCM) in C plants are initiated by the enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase (PEPC). The flow of inorganic carbon into the CCM...

DiMario R, Cousins A
J Exp Bot . 2018 Dec; 70(3):995-1004. PMID: 30517744
Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase (PEPc) catalyzes the first committed step of C4 photosynthesis generating oxaloacetate from bicarbonate (HCO3-) and PEP. It is hypothesized that PEPc affinity for HCO3- has undergone selective...

DiMario R, Machingura M, Waldrop G, Moroney J
Plant Sci . 2018 Jan; 268:11-17. PMID: 29362079
Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are enzymes that catalyze the interconversion of CO and HCO. In nature, there are multiple families of CA, designated with the Greek letters α through θ. CAs...

DiMario R, Clayton H, Mukherjee A, Ludwig M, Moroney J
Mol Plant . 2016 Sep; 10(1):30-46. PMID: 27646307
Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are zinc metalloenzymes that catalyze the interconversion of CO and HCO and are ubiquitous in nature. Higher plants contain three evolutionarily distinct CA families, αCAs, βCAs, and...
