Regulation of Expression and Evolution of Genes in Plastids of Rhodophytic Branch
Life, 2016 A novel algorithm and original software were used to cluster all proteins encoded in plastids of 72 species of the rhodophytic branch. The results are publicly available at http://lab6.iitp.ru/ppc/redline72/ in a database that allows fast identification ...

On the nature of thiamine triphosphate in Arabidopsis
Plant Direct, 2020 Vitamin B1 is a family of molecules, the most renowned member of which is diphosphorylated thiamine (TDP)—a coenzyme vital for the activity of key enzymes of energy metabolism.

The Translational Apparatus of Plastids and Its Role in Plant Development
Molecular Plant, 2014 SUMMARY Systematic reverse genetic approaches in the nuclear and chloroplast genomes have greatly increased our knowledge about the structure, function, and biogenesis of chloroplast ribosomes, and about the molecular mechanisms of plastid protein ...

Frontiers 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 ...

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Three forms of glutamate synthase (NADH-GOGAT, NADPH-GOGAT and Fd-(ferredoxin) GOGAT) were found in the plastids and cytosol of Pisum arvense root cells.

Rethinking plastid evolution [PDF]
The EMBO Reports, 2010 How easy is it to acquire an organelle? How easy is it to lose one? These questions underpin the current debate about the evolution of the plastid—that is, chloroplast—the organelle of photosynthesis in eukaryotic cells. The origin of the plastid has been traced to an endosymbiosis between a eukaryotic host cell and a cyanobacterial symbiont, the ...

Evolution: The plasticity of plastids
Current Biology, 2023 Many chloroplast-bearing plants and algae lost their photosynthetic activity during evolution but retained their chloroplasts for other functions. A group of dinoflagellate algae apparently lost one half of their photosynthetic machinery but retained the other, providing a novel mechanism for light perception.

Nectar defense and hydrogen peroxide in floral nectar of Cucurbita pepo
Acta Agrobotanica, 2015 This study was carried out to investigate some similarities between the nectaries of Nicotiana sp. and Cucurbita pepo, such as starch accumulation in the nectary parenchyma, changes in nectary color during maturation, and the production of a large ...

Plastid Division and Development [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1999 Plastids are an important group of plant cellular organelles and comprise one of the primary features that distinguish plant cells from those of other eukaryotes. Plastids are thought to have arisen as a result of an endosymbiotic event in which an early photosynthetic prokaryote invaded a ...
