Journal ArticleDOI
Lysosome-related Organelles as Mediators of Metal Homeostasis
TL;DR: Although the vacuoles of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Arabidopsis thaliana are well established locales for the storage of copper, zinc, iron, and manganese, related compartments are emerging as important mediators of metal homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid degradation of apoplastocyanin in Cu(II)-deficient cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
TL;DR: The proteolytic activity, presumably formed after import of the precursor into the chloroplast, is rapidly degraded in Cu(II)-deficient cells, and thereby accounts for the absence of accumulated plastocyanin in Cu (II)- deficient cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
The GreenCut2 resource, a phylogenomically derived inventory of proteins specific to the plant lineage.
TL;DR: A new inventory of 597 nucleus-encoded proteins conserved in plants and green algae but not in non-photosynthetic organisms is compiled and presented as a resource for functional analyses of plant-specific biochemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Xantha-l encodes a membrane subunit of the aerobic Mg-protoporphyrin IX monomethyl ester cyclase involved in chlorophyll biosynthesis
Kamila Rzeznicka,Caroline J. Walker,Tomas Westergren,C. Gamini Kannangara,Diter von Wettstein,Sabeeha S. Merchant,Simon P. Gough,Mats Hansson +7 more
TL;DR: The Xantha-l gene, corresponding to Arabidopsis thaliana CHL27, Rubrivivax gelatinosus acsF, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii CRD1, and CTH1 and situated at the short arm of barley chromosome 3 (3H), was cloned, and the mutations in xantha- l(35), xanna-l(81), and xantha -l(82) were characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Structure of Chloroplast Cytochrome c6 at 1.9 A Resolution: Evidence for Functional Oligomerization
TL;DR: The molecular structure of cytochrome c6 from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has been determined from two crystal forms and refined to 1.9 A resolution, the first report of a high-resolution structure of a chloroplast-derived class I c-type cytochromes.
