Plastids represent a largely diverse group of organelles in plant and algal cells that have
several common features but also a broad spectrum of differences in respect of how they …

Vesicle transfer processes in eukaryotes depend on specific proteins, which mediate the
selective packing of cargo molecules for subsequent release out of the cells after vesicle …

The function of IM30 (also known as Vipp1) is linked to protection and/or remodeling of the
thylakoid membrane system in chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. Recently, it has been …

Recent studies of chloroplast‐localized Sec14‐like protein (CPSFL1, also known as
phosphatidylinositol transfer protein 7, PITP7) showed that CPSFL1 is necessary for …

Coated vesicle transport occurs in the cytosol of yeast, mammals and plants. It consists of
three different transport systems, the COPI, COPII and clathrin coated vesicles (CCV), all of …

The Opuntia genus is widely distributed in America, but the highest richness of wild species

Carrageenan is a polysaccharide extracted from different species of red seaweed for use in
pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries. In Malaysia, κ-carrageenan is obtained through …

Photosynthetic oxygen evolution by photosystem II requires water supply into the chloroplast
to reach the thylakoid lumen. A rapid water flow is also required into the chloroplast for …

Immunophilins occur in almost all living organisms. They are ubiquitously expressed
proteins including cyclophilins, FK506/rapamycin-binding proteins, and parvulins. Their …
