The paper focused on enzymes that help build the photosynthetic chloroplast membranes in plant cells. One of those enzymes is ...
Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...
A study published in the journal Nature Communications explores the origin of chloroplasts, the plastids that allow plants to extract carbon from the atmosphere to build their own structures and ...
Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed prokaryotes that once lived as independent organisms. At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed ...
Next the researchers are working on soybeans and cowpeas; the latter is “a hugely important food-security crop in African ...
Plants encounter various abiotic stresses, such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures, which can significantly hinder their growth and ...
A new study has uncovered a novel P-type PPR protein, BoYgl-2, which plays a crucial role in chloroplast RNA editing and chlorophyll biosynthesis in cabbage.
