Document Summary

Chloroplast and peroxisomes: chloroplasts and peroxisomes, chloroplasts morphology internal structure and stromules, chloroplast protein targeting stroma and thylakoid protein import, peroxisome biogenesis and protein import. Chloroplasts: semi-autonomous plant cell organelle derived from photosynthetic cyanobacterium, site of photosynthesis (ps) O2 + energy rich carbohydrates (sugars) aerobic respiration in mitochondria. Co2 + atp (chemical energy: also involved in several other important metabolic processes, e. g. , fatty acid and amino acid biosynthesis, nitrogen and sulfur assimilation. Chloroplast: dynamics: chloroplasts ( mitochondria) are often highly mobile in cells, move along cytoskeleton elements via molecular motors. Time-lapse movie illustrating the movement of chlorophyll-containing chloroplasts in leaf cells. 3d image of grana & stromal thylakoids and lipid droplets based on em tomography: stroma aqueous interior (space inside of envelope and outside of thylakoids) Chloroplast protein targeting: toc and tic complexes are also involved in the insertion & assembly or import of other chloroplast proteins, e. g. , outer and inner envelope membrane proteins.
