Turnover-synthesis of chloroplast DNA in developing chloroplasts [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1978 The mechanism for the turnover-synthesis of chloroplast DNA in the absence of net synthesis during the chloroplast maturation in Euglena gracilis was determined. DNA synthesis was measured by incorporation of32Pi into chloroplast DNA. The density label, 15N, was incorporated to examine the mechanism of turnover-synthesis. The newly synthesized segments

A Plastid RNA Polymerase-Associated Protein Is Involved in Early Chloroplast Development in Rice
Agronomy, 2023 Plastid-encoded RNA polymerase (PEP) regulates the expression of chloroplast genes involved in photosynthesis and chloroplast development in rice. The PEP-associated protein (PAP) PAP7/pTAC14 is essential for the formation of the PEP complex.

Disruption of a Rice Chloroplast-Targeted Gene OsHMBPP Causes a Seedling-Lethal Albino Phenotype
Rice, 2020 Background Chloroplast development is coordinately regulated by plastid- and nuclear-encoding genes. Although many regulators have been reported to be involved in chloroplast development, new factors remain to be identified, given the complexity of this ...

Proteomic Responses of Dark-Adapted Euglena gracilis and Bleached Mutant Against Light Stimuli
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Euglena gracilis (E. gracilis) has secondary endosymbiotic chloroplasts derived from ancient green algae. Its chloroplasts are easily lost under numerous conditions to become permanently bleached mutants.

Iron Nutrition-Mediated Chloroplast Development [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1983 Membrane development in chloroplasts was explored by resupplying iron to iron-deficient sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L. cv F58-554H1) and monitoring changes in lamellar components during regreening. The synthesis of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and Q, the first stable electron acceptor of photosystem II, exhibited a lag phase during the first 24 to 48 ...

A Sec14 domain protein is required for photoautotrophic growth and chloroplast vesicle formation in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
, 2020 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.

Proteomic Analysis of Chloroplast-to-Chromoplast Transition in Tomato Reveals Metabolic Shifts Coupled with Disrupted Thylakoid Biogenesis Machinery and Elevated Energy-Production Components [PDF]
, 2012 A comparative proteomic approach was performed to identify differentially expressed proteins in plastids at three stages of tomato(Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening (mature-green, breaker, red). Stringent curation and processing of the data from three
