Synthesis and Turnover of the Chloroplast Coupling Factor 1 in Chlamydomonas reinhardi.

TL;DR: Studies on the biosynthesis of the chloroplast coupling factor 1 (CF(1)) in Chlamydomonas reinhardi have been initiated and the ratio of CF(1) to chlorophyll in the cell was shown to be independent of the density of the culture.
Journal ArticleDOI

RAF2 is a RuBisCO assembly factor in Arabidopsis thaliana.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the RAF2 protein is probably involved in RuBisCO assembly in the C3 plant A. thaliana, and mutant plants display a severe pale green phenotype with reduced levels of stromal RuBISCO.
Journal ArticleDOI

His protects heme as it crosses the membrane

TL;DR: In this issue of PNAS, Frawley and Kranz demonstrate that the conserved WWD motif of the CcsBA protein of the system II pathway is a heme binding platform on a transmembrane protein that serves to deliver heme from the bacterial cytoplasm to the periplasm.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing of Batch Chlamydomonas Cultures Reveals Heterogeneity in their Diurnal Cycle Phase

TL;DR: It is shown that single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) can be applied to Chlamydomonas cultures to reveal the that heterogenity in bulk cultures is largely driven by diurnal cycle phases and is exploited to show that circadian iron responses may be conserved from algae to land plants.
