Successful establishment of an exogenous gene expression system in Chlamydomnas chloroplast based on viral replication elements

This study establishes a gene expression system in Chlamydomonas chloroplast using viral replication elements, achieving higher heterologous gene expression than homologous recombination.

The "replacing surgery" of cpDNA: de novo chemical synthesis and in vivo functional testing of Chlamydomonas chloroplast genome

The paper synthesizes and functionally tests an artificial chloroplast genome in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, demonstrating its ability to replace the native genome and perform normal photosynthesis.
