p.639 right column 2nd paragraph:"In addition to ATP synthesis and transport, the PMF [Proton Motive Force] generated from a PPR photosystem may also boost other biotechnologically relevant pathways. As an example, when introducing a PPR system together with an oxygen-tolerant hydrogenase in E. coli, the hydrogen production can be increased by 30% in light [primary source]. It is hypothesized that the light-boosted PMF makes more protons available for the hydrogenase." |
