Light-driven processes: key players of the functional biodiversity in microalgae

Comptes Rendus Biologies, 2022
Microalgae are prominent aquatic organisms, responsible for about half of the photosynthetic activity on Earth. Over the past two decades, breakthroughs in genomics and ecosystem biology, as well as the development of genetic resources in model species ...

Imaging of the Entry Pathway of a Cell-Penetrating Peptide–DNA Complex From the Extracellular Space to Chloroplast Nucleoids Across Multiple Membranes in Arabidopsis Leaves

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Each plant cell has hundreds of copies of the chloroplast genome and chloroplast transgenes do not undergo silencing. Therefore, chloroplast transformation has many powerful potential agricultural and industrial applications.

The fine-tuning of NPQ in diatoms relies on the regulation of both xanthophyll cycle enzymes

Scientific Reports, 2021
Diatoms possess an efficient mechanism to dissipate photons as heat in conditions of excess light, which is visualized as the Non-Photochemical Quenching of chlorophyll a fluorescence (NPQ).

AtRsmD Is Required for Chloroplast Development and Chloroplast Function in Arabidopsis thaliana

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
AtRsmD was recently demonstrated to be a chloroplast 16S rRNA methyltransferase (MTase) for the m2G915 modification in Arabidopsis. Here, its function of AtRsmD for chloroplast development and photosynthesis was further analyzed.

A multifaceted analysis reveals two distinct phases of chloroplast biogenesis during de-etiolation in Arabidopsis

eLife, 2021
Light triggers chloroplast differentiation whereby the etioplast transforms into a photosynthesizing chloroplast and the thylakoid rapidly emerges. However, the sequence of events during chloroplast differentiation remains poorly understood. Using Serial

Decoding the Virtual 2D Map of the Chloroplast Proteomes

Biological Procedures Online, 2022
Background The chloroplast is a semi-autonomous organelle having its own genome and corresponding proteome. Although chloroplast genomes have been reported, no reports exist on their corresponding proteomes.

Osj10gBTF3-Mediated Import of Chloroplast Protein Is Essential for Pollen Development in Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Chloroplasts are crucial organelles for the generation of fatty acids and starch required for plant development. Nascent polypeptide-associated complex (NAC) proteins have been implicated in development as transcription factors.

Anticodon table of the chloroplast genome and identification of putative quadruplet anticodons in chloroplast tRNAs

Scientific Reports, 2023
The chloroplast genome of 5959 species was analyzed to construct the anticodon table of the chloroplast genome. Analysis of the chloroplast transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) revealed the presence of a putative quadruplet anticodon containing tRNAs in the ...

Research progress on maintaining chloroplast homeostasis under stress conditions: a review

Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2023
On a global scale, drought, salinity, extreme temperature, and other abiotic stressors severely limit the quality and yield of crops. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the adaptation strategies of plants to harsh environments.
