Chloroplast division is a fundamental process that ensures proper organelle inheritance during cell division and sustains the photosynthetic capacity of plants. This division involves the coordinated ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Chloroplast division is performed by the constriction of envelope membranes at the division site. Although constriction of a ring-like protein ...

Peroxisomes are highly dynamic organelles involved in various metabolic pathways. The division of peroxisomes is regulated by factors such as the PEROXIN11 (PEX11) proteins that promote peroxisome ...

Cellular proteins assist plant cells to ensure their offspring inherit the capacity to support themselves Dynamin proteins are widespread in eukaryotic cells, including those in plants and algae, and ...

Researchers of Kumamoto University in Japan have succeeded in the world's first visualization of a peptidoglycan 'wall' present in the chloroplasts of bryophytes (moss plants). Until now, chloroplasts ...

Proper DNA inheritance is essential for healthy chloroplast: the energy center of all plant cells. Researchers discover a new gene in chloroplast that disentangles its DNA for proper plant health.

When Katherine Osteryoung started her postdoctoral fellowship in Elizabeth Vierling's laboratory at the University of Arizona, Tucson, she wanted to work on heat shock proteins, which cells make in ...

Japan -- Proper DNA inheritance is essential for healthy cell growth and division. The same goes for the genetic material found in chloroplasts: the energy centers of all plant cells. Chloroplast ...
