Embryonal degreening and seed longevity require plastid LEA proteins
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Working model of how plastidial LEA proteins aid the remodelling of photosynthetic structures during degreening of Arabidopsis seed embryos. LEA42 and LEA48 support thylakoid proteostasis and membrane remodelling in embryonal cells during late seed maturation by maintaining a local physicochemical environment compatible with protein turnover and ...

Hidden Strategies Beneath a Single Nucleotide: Contrasting Physiology in Lichen Photobiont Strains
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lichen photobionts exhibit significant physiological variability with important ecological implications. While this variability is relatively well studied at the interspecific level, it has rarely been examined at the intraspecific level. Here, we investigated the physiological responses to temperature and irradiance of two Trebouxia lynniae ...

microPublication BiologyChlamydomonas reinhardtii is an ideal model organism for studying the cytoplasmic preassembly of ciliary dyneins. However, under normal liquid-culture conditions, Chlamydomonas preassembly-deficient mutants often show no cilia or a small number of ...

Nature Communications, 2019 The axoneme in cilia and flagella has exceptionally high stability despite being composed of microtubules that are known to be highly dynamic. Here authors extract tubulin from different components of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii axonemes and characterize ...

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2016 Metallic species are non-biodegradable and can only be removed physically, chemically and recently biologically from contaminated wastewater. Among the commonly found toxic heavy metals, thallium (Tl) and cadmium (Cd) are listed as priority pollutants ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In nature, plants are subjected to multiple environmental stress factors simultaneously or sequentially. Recent studies revealed that when three or more stress factors impact a plant simultaneously (termed ‘multifactorial stress combination’; MFSC), plant survival declines, even if the intensity of each individual stress involved in the MFSC ...

Photochemistry of CryB from Rhodobacter sphaeroides
Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.Elucidation of the photochemistry of CryB from Rhodobacter sphaeroides was achieved from the nanosecond to second timescale. A fast (<5 ns) deprotonation of the terminal electron donor Trp338 and the involvement of Tyr337 in photoreduction have been revealed.

Insertional Mutagenesis of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Bio-Protocol, 2015 The unicellular microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (C. reinhardtii) has been used as a reference model for numerous fields of research. Principle research areas are eukaryotic flagellar structure and function, basal bodies (centrioles), cell-cell ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend A, we used in silico models of human cardiomyocytes and microelectrode recordings on transgenic zebrafish hearts to study electrophysiology during optogenetic perturbations. Specifically, we compared effects of three distinct classes of channelrhodopsins: the cation non‐selective Chlamydomonas reinhardtii channelrhodopsin‐2 (ChR2)
