Photosystem II assembly: from cyanobacteria to plants

J Nickelsen, B Rengstl - Annual review of plant biology, 2013 - annualreviews.org
Photosystem II (PSII) is an integral-membrane, multisubunit complex that initiates electron
flow in oxygenic photosynthesis. The biogenesis of this complex machine involves the …

[HTML][HTML] The cyanobacterial homologue of HCF136/YCF48 is a component of an early photosystem II assembly complex and is important for both the efficient …

J Komenda, J Nickelsen, M Tichy, O Prasil… - Journal of Biological …, 2008 - ASBMB
The role of the slr2034 (ycf48) gene product in the assembly and repair of photosystem II (PSII)
has been studied in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803. YCF48 (HCF136) is …

The Arabidopsis Thylakoid Protein PAM68 Is Required for Efficient D1 Biogenesis and Photosystem II Assembly

…, P Jahns, B Weisshaar, J Nickelsen… - The plant …, 2010 - academic.oup.com
Photosystem II (PSII) is a multiprotein complex that functions as a light-driven water:plastoquinone
oxidoreductase in photosynthesis. Assembly of PSII proceeds through a number of …

Quantitative LC–MS Provides No Evidence for m6dA or m4dC in the Genome of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells and Tissues

…, F Spada, S Michalakis, J Nickelsen… - Angewandte Chemie …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Until recently, it was believed that the genomes of higher organisms contain, in addition to
the four canonical DNA bases, only 5‐methyl‐dC (m 5 dC) as a modified base to control …

[HTML][HTML] Biogenesis of thylakoid membranes

A Rast, S Heinz, J Nickelsen - Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) …, 2015 - Elsevier
Thylakoids mediate photosynthetic electron transfer and represent one of the most elaborate
energy-transducing membrane systems. Despite our detailed knowledge of its structure …

[PDF][PDF] The Nac2 gene of Chlamydomonas encodes a chloroplast TPR-like protein involved in psbD mRNA stability

E Boudreau, J Nickelsen, SD Lemaire… - The EMBO …, 2000 - embopress.org
The psbD mRNA, which encodes the D2 reaction center polypeptide of photosystem II, is
one of the most abundant chloroplast mRNAs. We have used genomic complementation to …

Biogenic regions of cyanobacterial thylakoids form contact sites with the plasma membrane

…, W Wan, S Pfeffer, F Beck, JM Plitzko, J Nickelsen… - Nature plants, 2019 - nature.com
Little is known about how the photosynthetic machinery is arranged in time and space during
the biogenesis of thylakoid membranes. Using in situ cryo-electron tomography to image …

Plant organellar RNA maturation

I Small, J Melonek, AV Bohne, J Nickelsen… - The Plant …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Plant organellar RNA metabolism is run by a multitude of nucleus-encoded RNA-binding
proteins (RBPs) that control RNA stability, processing, and degradation. In chloroplasts and …

Initial Steps of Photosystem II de Novo Assembly and Preloading with Manganese Take Place in Biogenesis Centers in Synechocystis

…, D Hilger, B Rengstl, H Jung, J Nickelsen - The Plant …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
In the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp PCC 6803, early steps in thylakoid membrane (TM)
biogenesis are considered to take place in specialized membrane fractions resembling an …

Towards autotrophic tissue engineering: photosynthetic gene therapy for regeneration

…, M Heikenwalder, MR Bono, ML Allende, J Nickelsen… - Biomaterials, 2016 - Elsevier
The use of artificial tissues in regenerative medicine is limited due to hypoxia. As a strategy
to overcome this drawback, we have shown that photosynthetic biomaterials can produce …
