Chloroplast SRP takes another road
In chloroplasts, cpSRP use two mechanisms to target both chloroplast- and nuclear-encoded proteins to the thylakoid membranes that house the photosynthetic machinery (Fig. 1). The first SRP ...
From negative results to new discoveries in chloroplast biochemistry
The paper focused on enzymes that help build the photosynthetic chloroplast membranes in plant cells. One of those enzymes is ...
