http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/25725436 | http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment | "BackgroundChloroplast biogenesis involves a collaboration between several thousand nuclear genes and ~100 genes in the chloroplast. Many of the nuclear genes are of cyanobacterial ancestry and continue to perform their ancestral function. However, many others evolved subsequently and comprise a diverse set of proteins found specifically in photosynthetic eucaryotes. Genetic approaches have been key to the discovery of nuclear genes that participate in chloroplast biogenesis, especially those lacking close homologs outside the plant kingdom.Scope of reviewThis article summarizes contributions from a genetic resource in maize, the Photosynthetic Mutant Library (PML). The PML collection consists of ~2000 non-photosynthetic mutants induced by Mu transposons. We include a summary of mutant phenotypes for 20 previously unstudied maize genes, including genes encoding chloroplast ribosomal proteins, a PPR protein, tRNA synthetases, proteins involved in plastid transcription, a putative ribosome assembly factor, a chaperonin 60 isoform, and a NifU-domain protein required for Photosystem I biogenesis.Major conclusionsInsertions in 94 maize genes have been linked thus far to visible and molecular phenotypes with the PML collection. The spectrum of chloroplast biogenesis genes that have been genetically characterized in maize is discussed in the context of related efforts in other organisms. This comparison shows how distinct organismal attributes facilitate the discovery of different gene classes, and reveals examples of functional divergence between monocot and dicot plants.General significanceThese findings elucidate the biology of an organelle whose activities are fundamental to agriculture and the biosphere. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Chloroplast Biogenesis."xsd:string |
