A targeted capture approach to generating reference sequence databases for chloroplast gene regions
Metabarcoding has improved the way we understand plants within our environment, from their ecology and conservation to invasive species management. The notion of identifying plant taxa within environmental samples relies on the ability to match unknown ...

Comparative analysis of the complete chloroplast genomes from six Neotropical species of Myrteae (Myrtaceae) [PDF]
Myrteae is the largest and most diverse tribe within Myrtaceae and represents the majority of its diversity in the Neotropics. Members of Myrteae hold ecological importance in tropical biomes for the provision of food sources for many animal species ...

Complex Plastids and the Evolution of the Marine Phytoplankton
Photosynthesis allows for the formation of biomass from inorganic carbon and therefore greatly enhances the amount of organic material on planet Earth.

Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of Rosa lucieae and Its Characteristics
Rosa lucieae is one of the famous wild ancestors of cultivated roses and plays a very important role in horticultural research, but there is still a lack of research on the R. lucieae chloroplast genome. In this study, we used the Illumina MiSeq platform

Analysis of chlorophyll fluorescence reveals stage specific patterns of chloroplast-containing cells during Arabidopsis embryogenesis [PDF]
http://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0716-97602010000100012&lng=es&nrm=isoThe basic body plan of a plant is established early in embryogenesis when cells differentiate, giving rise to the apical and basal regions of the embryo.

In bacteria and energy generating organelles, c-type cytochromes are a class of universal electron carriers with a heme cofactor covalently linked via one or two thioether bonds to a heme binding site. The covalent attachment of heme to apocytochromes is

Proteomic Analysis of Chloroplast-to-Chromoplast Transition in Tomato Reveals Metabolic Shifts Coupled with Disrupted Thylakoid Biogenesis Machinery and Elevated Energy-Production Components [PDF]
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

Allocation of Heme is Differentially Regulated by Ferrochelatase Isoforms in Arabidopsis Cells
Heme is involved in various biological processes as a cofactor of hemoproteins located in various organelles. In plant cells, heme is synthesized by two isoforms of plastid-localized ferrochelatase, FC1 and FC2.

Dual lysine and N‐terminal acetyltransferases reveal the complexity underpinning protein acetylation
Protein acetylation is a highly frequent protein modification. However, comparatively little is known about its enzymatic machinery. N‐α‐acetylation (NTA) and ε‐lysine acetylation (KA) are known to be catalyzed by distinct families of enzymes (NATs and ...
