Where has all of the carbon gone? Understanding the molecular mechanisms of long-term soil carbon capture

The University of Manchester Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences

Soils, while unglamorous, form the basis of the terrestrial biosphere and are ultimately the source of the majority of the food that we eat, yet fundamental aspects of how soils form and how they store carbon are poorly understood. Read more

Glycosylation in Microalgal Host Cells

University of Sheffield Department of Chemical & Biological Engineering

Microalgae have generated increasing interest as microbial cell factories to produce therapeutics proteins. This is because they can grow on very cheap media and their GRAS (generally regarded as safe) status means they are a fantastic option for the production of therapeutics that can be administered orally.
