Plastid-to-nucleus signalling

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2004
The function of the eukaryotic cell depends on the reciprocal interaction between its different compartments. Plastids emit signals that regulate nuclear gene expression to ensure the stoichiometric assembly of plastid protein complexes and to initiate macromolecular reorganisation in response to environmental cues.

Plastids and Carotenoid Accumulation

2016
Plastids are ubiquitously present in plants and are the organelles for carotenoid biosynthesis and storage. Based on their morphology and function, plastids are classified into various types, i.e. proplastids, etioplasts, chloroplasts, amyloplasts, and chromoplasts. All plastids, except proplastids, can synthesize carotenoids.

Plastids and gravitropic sensing

Planta, 1997
Data and theories about the identity of the mass that acts in gravitropic sensing are reviewed. Gravity sensing may have evolved several times in plants and algae in processes such as gravitropism of organs and tip-growing cells, gravimorphism, gravitaxis, and the regulation of cytoplasmic streaming in internodal cells of Chara.

PHOSPHATE TRANSLOCATORS IN PLASTIDS

Annual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology, 1999
▪ Abstract  During photosynthesis, energy from solar radiation is used to convert atmospheric carbon dioxide into intermediates that are used within and outside the chloroplast for a multitude of metabolic pathways. The daily fixed carbon is exported from the chloroplasts as triose phosphates and 3-phosphoglycerate. In contrast, nongreen plastids rely

Progress with Parasite Plastids

Journal of Molecular Biology, 2002
This review offers a snapshot of our current understanding of the origin, biology, and metabolic significance of the non-photosynthetic plastid organelle found in apicomplexan parasites. These protists are of considerable medical and veterinary importance world-wide, Plasmodium spp., the causative agent of malaria being foremost in terms of human ...

Metabolite transporters in plastids

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 1998
Communication between plastids and the surrounding cytosol occurs via the plastidic envelope membrane. Recent findings show that the outer membrane is not as freely permeable to low molecular weight solutes as previously thought, but contains different channel-like proteins that act as selectivity filters. The inner envelope membrane contains a variety

Isolation of Plastid Ribosomes

2016
Plastid ribosomes are responsible for a large part of the protein synthesis in plant leaves, green algal cells, and the vast majority in the thalli of red algae. Plastid translation is necessary not only for photosynthesis but also for development/differentiation of plants and algae.
