Klappentext A comprehensive review of current research on the interaction of plant organelles in photosynthesis! photorespiration! substrate and protein transport! respiration! lipid metabolism and organelle biogenesis. Zusammenfassung Photosynthetic plant cells are compartmentalized into subcellular organelles such as chloroplasts! mitochondria! peroxisomes! the cytosol and the vacuole. Although this compartmentation serves to isolate particular functions to particular subcellular locations! the successful metabolic activity of the cell is actually dependent on a controlled and coordinated interaction between these organelles. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Metabolic interactions between organelles in photosynthetic tissue: a mitochondrial overview; 2. Metabolite transport in plant cells; 3. Metabolic interactions during photosynthetic and respiratory nitrogen assimilation in a green alga; 4. Carbon and nitrogen cycling between organelles during photorespiration; 5. Metabolic interactions between organelles in C4 plants; 6. Metabolic interactions in leaves of C3-C4 intermediate plants; 7. Metabolite compartmentation and transport in CAM plants; 8. Transport of H+, K+ and Ca2+ at the vacuolar membrane of plants; 9. Regulation of mitochondrial respiratory activity in photosynthetic systems; 10. Biosynthesis and assembly of the enzymes involved in lipid metabolism in plants; 11. The role of carnitine in plant cell metabolism; 12. Metabolic interactions of organelles in guard cells; 13. Transport of proteins into chloroplasts; 14. Metabolic interactions of organelles during leaf development.
