Nonessential plastid-encoded ribosomal proteins in tobacco: a developmental role for plastid translation and implications for reductive genome evolution.

Plastid genomes of higher plants contain a conserved set of ribosomal protein genes. Although plastid translational activity is essential for cell survival in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), individual plastid ribosomal proteins can be nonessential. Candidates for nonessential plastid ribosomal proteins are ribosomal proteins identified as nonessential in bacteria and those whose genes were lost f...

Versatile roles of Arabidopsis plastid ribosomal proteins in plant growth and development.

A lack of individual plastid ribosomal proteins (PRPs) can have diverse phenotypic effects in Arabidopsis thaliana, ranging from embryo lethality to compromised vitality, with the latter being associated with photosynthetic lesions and decreases in the expression of plastid proteins. In this study, reverse genetics was employed to study the function of eight PRPs, five of which (PRPS1, -S20, -L...

The plastid ribosomal proteins. Identification of all the proteins in the 30 S subunit of an organelle ribosome (chloroplast).

Identification of all the protein components of a plastid (chloroplast) ribosomal 30 S subunit has been achieved, using two-dimensional gel electropholesis, high performance liquid chromatography purification, N-terminal sequencing, polymerase chain reaction-based screening of cDNA library, nucleotide sequencing, and mass spectrometry (electrospray ionization, matrix-assisted laser desorption/i...
