Comprehensive Expression Analyses of Plastidial Thioredoxins of Arabidopsis thaliana Indicate a Main Role of Thioredoxin m2 in Roots

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Thioredoxins (TRXs) f and m are redox proteins that regulate key chloroplast processes. The existence of several isoforms of TRXs f and m indicates that these redox players have followed a specialization process throughout evolution.

Comparative Analysis and Phylogenetic Relationships of Ceriops Species (Rhizophoraceae) and Avicennia lanata (Acanthaceae): Insight into the Chloroplast Genome Evolution between Middle and Seaward Zones of Mangrove Forests

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Ceriops and Avicennia are true mangroves in the middle and seaward zones of mangrove forests, respectively. The chloroplast genomes of Ceriops decandra, Ceriops zippeliana, and Ceriops tagal were assembled into lengths of 166,650, 166,083 and 164,432 bp,

Effects of Salinity Stress on Chloroplast Structure and Function

open access: yesCells, 2021
Salinity is a growing problem affecting soils and agriculture in many parts of the world. The presence of salt in plant cells disrupts many basic metabolic processes, contributing to severe negative effects on plant development and growth.

Autophagy regulates plastid reorganization during spermatogenesis in the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Autophagy is a highly conserved system that delivers cytoplasmic components to lysosomes/vacuoles. Plastids are also degraded through autophagy for nutrient recycling and quality control; however, the involvement of autophagic degradation of plastids in ...

Exploring the Link between Photosystem II Assembly and Translation of the Chloroplast psbA mRNA

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Photosystem II (PSII) in chloroplasts and cyanobacteria contains approximately fifteen core proteins, which organize numerous pigments and prosthetic groups that mediate the light-driven water-splitting activity that drives oxygenic photosynthesis.

Retrograde and anterograde signaling in the crosstalk between chloroplast and nucleus

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The chloroplast is a complex cellular organelle that not only performs photosynthesis but also synthesizes amino acids, lipids, and phytohormones. Nuclear and chloroplast genetic activity are closely coordinated through signaling chains from the nucleus ...

Organellar Evolution: A Path from Benefit to Dependence

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Eukaryotic organelles supposedly evolved from their bacterial ancestors because of their benefits to host cells. However, organelles are quite often retained, even when the beneficial metabolic pathway is lost, due to something other than the original ...

Respiratory processes in non-photosynthetic plastids

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Chlororespiration is a respiratory process located in chloroplast thylakoids which consists in an electron transport chain from NAD(P)H to oxygen. This respiratory chain involves the NAD(P)H dehydrogenase complex, the plastoquinone pool and the plastid ...
