Chloroplast Flashcards
(22 cards)
1
Q
chloroplast
A
- semi autonomous plant cell organelle
- site of photosythesis
- move along cytoskeleton elements vio molecular motors
2
Q
chlorplast envelope
A
outer and inner membrane
3
Q
outer membrane
A
- porins
- not as permianle as mitochondria
4
Q
inner membrane
A
- highly impermiable
- containe various transporters
5
Q
thylakoid
A
flattened membraneous discs arranged in stacks (granuel, stromal)
- or between stacks
6
Q
thylakoud membrane
A
- site of ATP synthase, maintain H+ gradient in thylakoid lumen
7
Q
thylakoid lumen
A
aqous interior
8
Q
stroma
A
- aqeuos interior of chloroplast
- ribosomes
- plastid genom
9
Q
stromules
A
- long stroma filled membrane tubules
- allows for metabolite transfer communication between choloplasts
10
Q
choloplast fission
A
divide in response to environmental stimuli
11
Q
FTSZ division machinery
A
- stromal side of inner membrane
Ftsz1 and Ftsz2 - assemle into long filamentous polymers
- Z ring is now future division sight
- initial lining up by stromal propns ARC3, mino mine
12
Q
Arc 6
A
mediates linkage of Z-rinf to inner membrane at chlorplast division sight
13
Q
plastid dividing machinery
A
- Arc6 binds in outer mem
-PDV1/2 binds ti Arc5
heterodimeric proteins recruited at mid point
14
Q
PD ring
A
- forms when ARC5 assembles into spiral
- wraps around chloroplast
- once constricted enough daughter cell is formed
15
Q
stromal import sequence
A
- most stromal prteins posses
- located at N terminus
- cleaved following protein import into stromal
16
Q
Tic Toc
A
-precurser protein transfered through Toc complex and then through Tic
17
Q
stromal prcoessing enzyme
A
cleaves stromal import sequnce
18
Q
HSP93
A
- reconize emerginf precurser protein, after stromal import cleaved
- acts as molecular motor
19
Q
thylakoid targetinf sequnce
A
- is revealed after removal or stromal import sequence
20
Q
SRP dependent pathway
A
- thylakoid targeting sequnce reconized by chlooplast signal recognition particle
- SRP binds chloroplast SRP receptor on thylokoid mem and protein translocated into lumen via thylakoid sec-g like tranlocon
-thylokoid lumen protease remove target sequence - molecular chaperons in thylokoid lumen mediate folding
21
Q
Ph dependent
A
- precurser protein fully folded in stroma
- folded protein imported into lumen via diarginine containing thylakoid targeting sequence (lumen protease cleaves)
- relies on energy from proton Ph gradient
- [H+] lumen >[H+] stroma
22
Q
A
