Interaction network of chromoplast PG proteins.
The tomato chromoplast PG proteome analysis using the STRING software identified three clusters. Pear, (cluster 1) enriched in carotenoid biosynthetic enzymes; Red, (cluster 2) enriched in prenyl quinone metabolism and regulation; green, (cluster 3 ...

Plastid Proteomic Analysis in Tomato Fruit Development. [PDF]
To better understand the mechanism of plastid differentiation from chloroplast to chromoplast, we examined proteome and plastid changes over four distinct developmental stages of 'Micro-Tom' fruit.

Plastids are sites for carotenoid biosynthesis and accumulation, but detailed information on fruit plastid development and its relation to carotenoid accumulation remains largely unclear.

Lycopene and β-Carotene accumulate high levels in chromoplast PG.
(A) Total carotenoids were extracted from equal volumes of gradient fractions containing chloroplast (Chl) or chromoplast (Chr) PG. Lycopene was quantified. (B) Quantification of lutein, β-carotene, and violaxanthin/neoxanthin.

Neofunctionalization of Chromoplast Specific Lycopene Beta Cyclase Gene (CYC-B) in Tomato Clade. [PDF]
The ancestor of tomato underwent whole genome triplication ca. 71 Myr ago followed by widespread gene loss. However, few of the triplicated genes are retained in modern day tomato including lycopene beta cyclase that mediates conversion of lycopene to β ...

Chlorophylls and carotenoids are synthesized in the chloroplast and chromoplast, respectively. Even though the two pigments are generated from the same precursor, the genetic correlation between chlorophyll and carotenoid biosynthesis has not yet been ...

Comparative vegetative anatomy of Neotropical Goodyerinae Klotzsch (Orchidaceae Juss.: Orchidoideae Lindl.) [PDF]
The Neotropical genera Aspidogyne and Microchilus (Goodyerinae, Cranichideae, Orchidaceae) comprise ca. 200 rainforests terrestrial species. Although species of Goodyerinae are described with similar anatomy to other taxa of Cranichideae, some anatomical

Carotenoid biosynthetic pathway in tomato chromoplast PG.
Chromoplast plastoglobules recruit the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway enzymes: phytoene synthase 1 (PSY1), phytoene desaturase (PDS), z-carotene desaturase (ZDS), and carotenoid isomerase (CRTISO) and lycopene β-cyclase (LYC-β) to promote carotenoid ...

Plastid transcriptomics and translatomics of tomato fruit development and chloroplast-to-chromoplast differentiation: Chromoplast gene expression largely serves the production of a single protein [PDF]
Plastid genes are expressed at high levels in photosynthetically active chloroplasts but are generally believed to be drastically downregulated in nongreen plastids.

Carotenoid Pigment Accumulation in Horticultural Plants
Carotenoids are a group of widely distributed natural pigments. They give many horticultural plants the bright red, orange, and yellow colors, as well as the aroma and flavor.
