OHP2 is not required for psbA translation in Chlamydomonas

This study shows that OHP2 is not required for psbA translation in Chlamydomonas but is necessary for D1 stabilization.

Structural basis for VIPP1 oligomerization and maintenance of thylakoid membrane integrity

This study determines the structure of cyanobacterial VIPP1 rings using cryo-EM, revealing how VIPP1 oligomerization and lipid binding maintain thylakoid membrane integrity.

The proteomic inventory reveals the chloroplast ribosome as nexus within a diverse protein network

Affinity purification of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii chloroplast ribosomes and subsequent proteomic analysis revealed a broad spectrum of interactors ranging from global translation control to specific pathways.

RNA recognition by the E2 subunit of the chloroplast pyruvate dehydrogenase complex from Chlamydomonas

This study characterizes the RNA-binding activity of DLA2, a subunit of the chloroplast pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, showing it binds psbA mRNA under mixotrophic conditions.

Towards a biotechnological platform for the production of human pro-angiogenic growth factors in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

This study identifies the optimal strain and vector combination for expressing human pro-angiogenic growth factors in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and demonstrates their functional activity in angiogenesis assays.
