Scientists Created Solar-Powered Animal Cells by Combining Choloplasts From Algae and Hamster Cells

A team from the University of Tokyo has successfully created hybrid animal cells that can generate energy from sunlight. By integrating chloroplasts from the red algae Cyanidioschyzon merolae into Chinese hamster cells, the researchers demonstrated that these cells can sustain photosynthesis for up to 48 hours. This breakthrough could have significant implications for…
