Protein Import Mechanism in Chloroplast
Description:
Chloroplasts represent a diverse group of essential organelles collectively as the plastids. Plastids are a heterogeneous family of organelles found ubiquitously in plant and algal cells. Chloroplasts perform a variety of biochemical functions within plant cells. They contain the green pigment chlorophyll and are responsible for the light-harvesting and carbon-fixation reactions of photosynthesis, as well as for the synthesis of many essential metabolites, such as fatty acids and amino acids. Other members of the plastid f...
