Tetrapyrroles such as chlorophyll and heme are co-factors for essential proteins involved in
a wide variety of crucial cellular functions. Nearly 2% of the proteins encoded by the …

Identifying the correct subcellular locations for all enzymes and metabolites in plant
metabolic networks is a major challenge, but is critically important for the success of the new …

Plastids contain multiple copies of the plastid chromosome, folded together with proteins
and RNA into nucleoids. The degree to which components of the plastid gene expression …

Since their discovery in the 1960s as 'osmotic shock-sensitive'transporters, a plethora of so-
called binding protein-dependent (canonical) ATP-binding cassette (ABC) importers has …

C4 grasses, such as maize (Zea mays), have high photosynthetic efficiency through
combined biochemical and structural adaptations. C4 photosynthesis is established along …

Respiratory metabolism includes the reactions of glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle and
the mitochondrial electron transport chain, but is also directly linked with many other …

The plant Golgi plays a pivotal role in the biosynthesis of cell wall matrix polysaccharides,
protein glycosylation, and vesicle trafficking. Golgi-localized proteins have become …

RNA editing is converting hundreds of cytosines into uridines during organelle gene
expression of land plants. The pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins are at the core of this …

Mitochondria play a key role in the life and death of eukaryotic cells, yet the full spectrum of
mitochondrial functions is far from being fully understood, especially in photosynthetic …

With the existence of large publicly available plant gene expression data sets, many groups
have undertaken data analyses to construct gene coexpression networks and functionally …
