Stromules are dynamic membrane-bound tubular structures that emanate from plastids. Stromule formation is triggered in response to various stresses and during plant development, suggesting that stromules may have physiological and developmental ro...
In Arabidopsis thaliana, the Ethylene-dependent Gravitropism-deficient and Yellow-green 1 (EGY1) gene encodes a thylakoid membrane-localized protease involved in chloroplast development in leaf mesophyll cells. Recently, EGY1 was also found to be ...
Argon-ion beam is an effective mutagen capable of inducing a variety of mutation types. In this study, an argon ion-induced pale green mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana was isolated and characterized. The mutant, designated Ar50-33-pg1, exhibited mod...

Recently, a recessive Arabidopsis thaliana mutant with abundant stromules in leaf epidermal pavement cells was visually screened and isolated. The gene responsible for this mutant phenotype was identified as PARC6, a chloroplast division site regu...
葉緑体分裂には、進化的に保存されたバクテリア様分裂因子群と真核生物特有のダイナミン様タンパク質が関わる。バクテリア様因子のうちMinDとMinEの二種はバクテリアでは細胞分裂の位置決定に関わる。最近、シロイヌナズナMinE相同因子(AtMinE1)が第三の葉緑体分裂因子として機能すること、またシロイヌナズナ葉緑体分裂異常変異体arc11 (accumulation and replication of chloroplasts 11)がMinD相同...
