Stromal Protein Chloroplast Development and Biogenesis1 Is Essential for Chloroplast Development and Biogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Although numerous studies have been carried out on chloroplast development and biogenesis, the underlying regulatory mechanisms are still largely elusive. Here, we characterized a chloroplast stromal protein Chloroplast Development and Biogenesis1 (CDB1). The knockout cdb1 mutant exhibits a seedling-lethal and ivory leaf phenotype.

AtRsmD Is Required for Chloroplast Development and Chloroplast Function in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
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. The AtRsmD gene is highly expressed in green photosynthetic tissues. AtRsmD is associated with the thylakoid in chloroplasts.

CHLOROPLAST DEVELOPMENT IN OCHROMONAS DANICA [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 1962 When dark-grown cells of Ochromonas danica are placed in the light, the amount of chlorophyll a per cell increases 82-fold; the content of carotenoid pigment, 24-fold. Concomitantly with this increase in chlorophyll and carotenoid pigment, the small proplastid of dark-grown cells develops into a large lamellate chloroplast. During the first 12 hours in

Physiological, Cytological, and Transcriptomic Analysis of Magnesium Protoporphyrin IX Methyltransferase Mutant Reveal Complex Genetic Regulatory Network Linking Chlorophyll Synthesis and Chloroplast Development in Rice [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Functional defects in key genes for chlorophyll synthesis usually cause abnormal chloroplast development, but the genetic regulatory network for these key genes in regulating chloroplast development is still unclear.

PIF3 is a repressor of chloroplast development [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009 The phytochrome-interacting factor PIF3 has been proposed to act as a positive regulator of chloroplast development. Here, we show that the pif3 mutant has a phenotype that is similar to the pif1 mutant, lacking the repressor of chloroplast development PIF1, and that a pif1pif3

Chloroplast SRP54s are Essential for Chloroplast Development in Rice [PDF]
Rice, 2020 Abstract Background The chloroplast signal recognition particle 54 (cpSRP54) is known for targeting the light-harvesting complex proteins to thylakoids and plays a critical role for chloroplast development in Arabidopsis, but little is known in rice.
