Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy Metal-Activated Synthesis of Peptides in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Gregg Howe,Sabeeha S. Merchant +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the capacity of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to produce metal-binding peptides in response to stress induced by the heavy metals Cd2+, Hg2+, and Ag+.
Journal ArticleDOI
A subset of the diverse COG0523 family of putative metal chaperones is linked to zinc homeostasis in all kingdoms of life
Crysten E. Haas,Dmitry A. Rodionov,Janette Kropat,Davin Malasarn,Sabeeha S. Merchant,Valérie de Crécy-Lagard +5 more
TL;DR: A link between COG0523 and regulation by zinc in Archaea is predicted and two COG523 genes are induced upon zinc depletion in a eukaryotic reference organism, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Journal ArticleDOI
How membrane proteins travel across the mitochondrial intermembrane space
TL;DR: A newly discovered family of small proteins in the yeast mitochondrial intermembrane space mediates import of hydrophobic proteins from the cytoplasm into the inner membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Path to Triacylglyceride Obesity in the sta6 Strain of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Ursula Goodenough,Ian K. Blaby,David Casero,Sean D. Gallaher,Carrie Goodson,Shannon L. Johnson,Jae-Hyeok Lee,Sabeeha S. Merchant,Matteo Pellegrini,Robyn Roth,Jannette Rusch,Manmilan Singh,James G. Umen,Taylor L. Weiss,Tuya Wulan +14 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the boost serves both to avert an autophagy program and to prolong the operation of key pathways that shuttle carbon from acetate into storage lipid, the combined outcome being enhanced TAG accumulation, notably in the sta6 strain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reciprocal expression of two candidate di-iron enzymes affecting photosystem I and light-harvesting complex accumulation.
Jeffrey L. Moseley,M. Dudley Page,Nancy P. Alder,Mats Eriksson,Jeanette M. Quinn,Feiris Soto,Steven M. Theg,Michael Hippler,Sabeeha S. Merchant +8 more
TL;DR: Fluorescence analysis of wild-type, crd1, and sct1 strains indicates that copper-responsive adjustment of the Cth1:Crd1 ratio results in modification of the interactions between photosystem I and associated light-harvesting complexes.
