The gateway to chloroplast: re-defining the function of chloroplast receptor proteins [PDF]
Chloroplast biogenesis often requires a tight orchestration between gene expression (both plastidial and nuclear) and translocation of similar to 3000 nuclear-encoded proteins into the organelle.

Image_2_Stromal Protein Chloroplast Development and Biogenesis1 Is Essential for Chloroplast Development and Biogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana.PDF [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).

The Arabidopsis ppi1 mutant is specifically defective in the expression, chloroplast import, and accumulation of photosynthetic proteins [PDF]
The import of nucleus-encoded proteins into chloroplasts is mediated by translocon complexes in the envelope membranes. A component of the translocon in the outer envelope membrane, Toc34, is encoded in Arabidopsis by two homologous genes, atTOC33 and ...

Arabidopsis VARIEGATED 3 encodes a chloroplast-targeted, zinc-finger protein required for chloroplast and palisade cell development [PDF]
The stable, recessive Arabidopsis variegated 3 (var3) mutant exhibits a variegated phenotype due to somatic areas lacking or containing developmentally retarded chloroplasts and greatly reduced numbers of palisade cells.

Phosphorylation regulates the assembly of chloroplast import machinery [PDF]
Chloroplast function depends on the translocation of cytosolically synthesized precursor proteins into the organelle. The recognition and transfer of most precursor proteins across the outer membrane depend on a membrane inserted complex.

Binding of chloroplast signal recognition particle to a thylakoid membrane protein substrate in aqueous solution and delineation of the cpSRP43–substrate interaction domain [PDF]
A cpSRP [chloroplast SRP (signal recognition particle)] comprising cpSRP54 and cpSRP43 subunits mediates the insertion of light-harvesting proteins into the thylakoid membrane. We dissected its interaction with a full-length membrane protein substrate in
