Stromal Protein Chloroplast Development and Biogenesis1 Is Essential for Chloroplast Development and Biogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
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).

Simultaneous defects in chloroplast development and division cause leaf variegation in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Chloroplast biogenesis is essential not only for photosynthesis but also for the synthesis of many metabolites critical for plant growth and human nutrition. Leaf variegation provides a powerful model for dissecting the process of chloroplast biogenesis,

AtRsmD Is Required for Chloroplast Development and Chloroplast Function in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
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.
