Despite extensive research, the origin and evolution of chloroplast division machinery remain unclear. Here, we employ recently sequenced genomes transcriptomes Archaeplastida clades to identify core components reconstruct their evolutionary histories, respectively. Our findings show that complete ring structures emerged in Charophytes. We find Glaucophytes experienced strong selection pressure, generating diverse variants adapted changing terrestrial environments. By integrating functions...
INTRODUCTION Existing research suggests an association between smoking and the incidence of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS); however, causal relationship remains ambiguous.We employed Mendelian randomization (MR) to clarify potential risk developing RAS.METHODS We utilized genome-wide study (GWAS) sequencing data related from Finnish database as instrumental variables (IVs) GWAS for RAS UK Biobank (UKB) outcome perform a two-sample MR analysis.The selection IVs was rigorously controlled...
Chloroplast division is driven by the simultaneous constriction of inner FtsZ ring (Z ring) and outer DRP5B ring. The assembly these rings in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) are coordinated partly through envelope membrane protein ACCUMULATION AND REPLICATION OF CHLOROPLASTS6 (ARC6). Previously, we showed that PARC6 (PARALOG ARC6), also membrane, negatively regulates acts downstream ARC6 to position PLASTID DIVISION1 (PDV1), which functions together with its paralog PDV2 recruit...
The cytoskeletal Filamenting temperature-sensitive Z (FtsZ) ring is critical for cell division in bacteria and chloroplast photosynthetic eukaryotes. While bacterial FtsZ rings are composed of a single FtsZ, except the basal glaucophytes, involves two heteropolymer-forming isoforms: FtsZ1 FtsZ2 green lineage FtsZA FtsZB red algae. probably arose by duplication more ancestral FtsZA, respectively. We expressed fluorescent fusions from diverse organisms heterologous system to compare their...
Polyploidization promotes the functional diversification of autophagy in plants, expanding autophagy-associated genes (AAGs) to support processes like chloroplast division and flowering. Analysis 92,967 AAGs
Chloroplast division is initiated by assembly of the stromal Z ring, composed cytoskeletal Filamenting temperature-sensitive (FtsZ) proteins. Midplastid Z-ring positioning governed chloroplast Min (Minicell) system, which inhibits everywhere except site. The central Min-system player FtsZ-assembly inhibitor ACCUMULATION AND REPLICATION OF CHLOROPLASTS3 (ARC3). Here, we report Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) chloroplasts contain two pools ARC3: one distributed throughout stroma, presumably...
Peroxisomes are dynamic organelles crucial for a variety of metabolic processes during the development eukaryotic organisms, and functionally linked to other subcellular organelles, such as mitochondria chloroplasts. Peroxisomal matrix proteins imported by peroxins (PEX proteins), yet modulation peroxin functions is poorly understood. We previously reported that, besides its known function in chloroplast protein import, Arabidopsis E3 ubiquitin ligase SP1 (suppressor ppi1 locus1) also...
Chloroplast size varies considerably in nature, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. By exploiting a near-isogenic line population derived from cross between Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) accessions Cape Verde Islands (Cvi-1), which has larger chloroplasts, and Landsberg erecta (Ler-0), with smaller we determined that large-chloroplast phenotype Cvi-1 is associated allelic variation gene encoding chloroplast-division protein FtsZ2-2, tubulin-related cytoskeletal component of...
Bacterial cell and chloroplast division are driven by a contractile "Z ring" composed of the tubulin-like cytoskeletal GTPase FtsZ. Unlike bacterial Z rings, which consist single FtsZ, ring in plants is two FtsZ proteins, FtsZ1 FtsZ2. Both required for vivo, but their biochemical relationship poorly understood. We used assays, light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, sedimentation assays to investigate assembly behavior purified Arabidopsis thaliana (At) AtFtsZ2 both individually...
ABSTRACT Chloroplast division is initiated by the establishment of stromal FtsZ ring (Z ring). Assembly and positioning Z are governed chloroplast Min system, which inhibits Z-ring formation everywhere but middle chloroplast. ACCUMULATION AND REPLICATION OF CHLOROPLASTS3 (ARC3), core component this a direct inhibitor assembly. Regulation ARC3 activity vital thus for division. Here, we report that ARC6, localizes on inner envelope membrane, interacts with acts upstream during We show...
