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 ...

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 ...

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.

Energy-making chloroplasts from algae have been inserted into hamster cells, enabling the cells to photosynthesize light, according to new research in Japan. It was previously thought that combining ...

Chloroplast development is orchestrated by a complex network of transcriptional regulators that coordinate nuclear and plastid gene expression to ensure proper assembly of photosynthetic machinery.
