Organellar inheritance in the green lineage: insights from Ostreococcus tauri [PDF]

, 2013
Along the green lineage (Chlorophyta and Streptophyta), mitochondria and chloroplast are mainly uniparentally transmitted and their evolution is thus clonal. The mode of organellar inheritance in their ancestor is less certain.

Loss-of-function mutation in SCY1 triggers chloroplast-to-nucleus retrograde signaling in Arabidopsis thaliana

Biologia Plantarum, 2015
The secretory (Sec) pathway is one of the most important systems for transporting proteins across the thylakoid membrane into the lumen. Two Arabidopsis genes encoding SecY translocon proteins, designated SCY1 and SCY2, were characterized in this study ...

Mutant-based model of two independent pathways for carotenoid-mediated chloroplast biogenesis in Arabidopsis embryos [PDF]

, 2019
Chloroplasts are essential for autonomous plant growth, and their biogenesis is a complex process requiring both plastid and nuclear genome. One of the essential factors required for chloroplast biogenesis are carotenoids.

Characterization and Fine Mapping of a Yellow-Virescent Gene Regulating Chlorophyll Biosynthesis and Early Stage Chloroplast Development in Brassica napus

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Chlorophyll biosynthesis and chloroplast development are crucial to photosynthesis and plant growth, but their regulatory mechanism remains elusive in many crop species.

The gateway to chloroplast: re-defining the function of chloroplast receptor proteins [PDF]

, 2012
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.

Glucose Induces Thylakoid Formation and Upregulates Green Pigment Contents in Complete Dark Culture of the Angiosperm Pachiramacrocarpa

Agronomy, 2021
In addition to angiosperms, most plants are able to synthesize chlorophyll (Chl)-generating green tissues in total darkness. In this study, 140 plants of the angiosperm Pachira macrocarpa were divided into five groups. Among them, one group was grown for

Insights into chloroplast biogenesis and development

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2015
In recent years many advances have been made to obtain insight into chloroplast biogenesis and development. In plants several plastids types exist such as the proplastid (which is the progenitor of all plastids), leucoplasts (group of colourless plastids important for storage including elaioplasts (lipids), amyloplasts (starch) or proteinoplasts ...
