Tetrapyrrole biosynthesis produces metabolites that are essential for critical reactions in
photosynthetic organisms, including chlorophylls, heme, siroheme, phytochromobilins, and …

Chlorophyll, an essential pigment in the photosynthetic machinery of plants, plays a pivotal
role in the absorption of light energy and its subsequent transfer to reaction centers. Given …

Chlorophylls and carotenoids are essential photosynthetic pigments. Plants
spatiotemporally coordinate the needs of chlorophylls and carotenoids for optimal …

Acclimation is the capacity to adapt to environmental changes within the lifetime of an
individual. This ability allows plants to cope with the continuous variation in ambient …

Chlorophyll is indispensable for life on Earth. Dynamic control of chlorophyll level,
determined by the relative rates of chlorophyll anabolism and catabolism, ensures optimal …

The assembly of light-harvesting chlorophyll-binding proteins (LHCPs) is coordinated with
chlorophyll biosynthesis during chloroplast development. The ATP-independent chaperone …

In plants, chloroplasts are the sites at which photosynthesis occurs, and an increased
abundance of chloroplasts increases the nutritional quality of plants and the resultant color …

Chlorophyll metabolism has evolved during plant evolution. The strictly light-dependent
nature of chlorophyll biosynthesis found in angiosperms requires tight coordination of …

Chlorophyll accumulation and chloroplast development are regulated at multiple levels
during plant development. The paralogous LLM-domain B-GATA transcription factors GNC …

In natural environments, photosynthetic organisms adjust their metabolism to cope with the
fluctuating availability of combined nitrogen sources, a growth-limiting factor. For …
