Chloroplast Movement Imaging Under Different Light Regimes With a Hyperspectral Camera [PDF]
Plants move chloroplasts in response to light, changing the optical properties of leaves. Low irradiance induces chloroplast accumulation, while high irradiance triggers chloroplast avoidance.

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

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

Decoding the Virtual 2D Map of the Chloroplast Proteomes
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
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.

Chloroplast proteostasis: A story of birth, life, and death
Protein homeostasis (proteostasis) is a dynamic balance of protein synthesis and degradation. Because of the endosymbiotic origin of chloroplasts and the massive transfer of their genetic information to the nucleus of the host cell, many protein ...

A Sec14 domain protein is required for photoautotrophic growth and chloroplast vesicle formation in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
In eukaryotic photosynthetic organisms, the conversion of solar into chemical energy occurs in thylakoid membranes in the chloroplast. How thylakoid membranes are formed and maintained is poorly understood.
