Plastid Transcriptomics: An Important Tool For Plastid Functional Genomics
Protein & Peptide Letters, 2021Plastids in higher plants carry out specialized roles such as photosynthesis, nitrogen assimilation, biosynthesis of amino acids, fatty acids, isoprenoids, and various metabolites. Plastids arise from undifferentiated precursors known as proplastids, which are found in the root and shoot meristems. They are highly dynamic as they change their number,

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1992
There has long been controversy over whether the plastids of green plants and algae, rhodophytes and chromophytes arose from a single primary endosymbiotic event or independently from several. DNA sequences from plastid genes are rapidly becoming available, but limitations of current phylogenetic inference techniques make it difficult to draw firm ...

Bioscience, Biotechnology and Biochemistry, 2010 Plastids are a diverse group of organelles found in plants and some parasites. Chloroplasts are the archetypical plastids and are present in photosynthetic plant cells. Because most plastid proteins are encoded by the nuclear genome, plastid biogenesis relies on importing these proteins into the plastid.

Plastids are essential organelles present in virtually all cells in plants and in green algae. The proteomes of plastids, and in particular of chloroplasts, have received significant amounts of attention in recent years. Various fractionation and mass spectrometry (MS) techniques have been applied to catalogue the chloroplast proteome and its membrane ...

Nature, 1948
IN a previous paper1, a method has been described for the detection of the enzyme phosphorylase in plant tissues. Briefly, it consists of incubating freehand sections of the tissue, previously freed of starch by starvation, in a buffered solution of glucose-1-phosphate, and subsequent staining in iodine–potassium iodide for the resultant starch.

Plastid Transformation in Tomato
2014Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is one of the most important vegetable crops and has long been an important model species in plant biology. Plastid biology in tomato is especially interesting due to the chloroplast-to-chromoplast conversion occurring during fruit ripening.

The Continuity of Plastids and the Differentiation of Plastid Populations
1980The development of a proplastid into a chloroplast is only one aspect of the development of the photosynthetic system. We have to ask further questions about (1) the continuity of plastids from cell to cell, and (2) how the number of plastids in a cell is regulated.

Crystalloids in apparent autophagic plastids: Remnants of plastids or peroxisomes?
Journal of Plant Physiology, 2015Plant macroautophagy is carried out by autophagosome-type organelles. Recent evidence suggests that plastids also can carry out macroautophagy. The double membrane at the surface of plastids apparently invaginates, forming an intraplastidial space. This space contains a portion of cytoplasm that apparently becomes degraded.

Plastids in parasites of humans
BioEssays, 1997AbstractIt has recently emerged that malarial, toxoplasmodial and related parasites contain a vestigial plastid (the organelle in which photosynthesis occurs in plants and algae). The function of the plastid in these obligate intracellular parasites has not been established.

SummaryPlastids (chloroplasts) harbor a small gene‐dense genome that is amenable to genetic manipulation by transformation. During 1 billion years of evolution from the cyanobacterial endosymbiont to present‐day chloroplasts, the plastid genome has undergone a dramatic size reduction, mainly as a result of gene losses and the large‐scale transfer of ...
