Researchers at the MPI for Terrestrial Microbiology have designed and constructed a new synthetic CO 2-fixation pathway, the so-called THETA cycle. “Bringing parts of the THETA cycle into living cells ...

This study reveals the effect and mechanism of microbial mineralization technology on accelerating CO2 fixation, improving soundness and enhancing hydration activity of steel slag Cement production is ...

New synthetic metabolic pathways for fixation of carbon dioxide could not only help to reduce the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere, but also replace conventional chemical manufacturing ...

Humanity continuously emits greenhouse gases and thereby worsens global warming. Increasing research efforts go into developing strategies to convert these gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2), into ...

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

Rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) represent an urgent global issue, with communities already experiencing more extreme weather because of a changing climate. One strategy that ...

Researchers develop a new method for the sustainable use of carbon dioxide. New synthetic metabolic pathways for fixation of carbon dioxide could not only help to reduce the carbon dioxide content of ...

Closing the THETA cycle is still a major challenge, as all of the 17 reactions need to be synchronized with the natural metabolism of E. coli, which naturally involves hundreds to thousands of ...

A newly identified soil bacterium may help unlock cleaner ways to recycle carbon dioxide and produce valuable chemicals using electricity. In a recent ...
