Photoautotrophs are
organisms that can
utilize light energy from
sunlight and
elements (such as carbon) from
inorganic compounds to
produce organic materials...

sulfur bacteria) they can be also
called lithotrophs, and so, some
photoautotrophs are also
called photolithoautotrophs.

Photoautotrophs exists across the tree of life. Many
bacterial taxa are known...

theorized that
lycopane is
directly synthesized by
marine photoautotrophs such as
cyanobacteria or
green algae.
Lycopene is
abundantly present...
- nickel-containing
enzyme carbon monoxide dehydrogenase catalyses this process.
Photoautotrophs (i.e.
plants and cyanobacteria) use the
energy contained in sunlight...
