Chloroplasts emit signals that modulate nuclear gene expression, thereby ensuring the proper assembly of the photosynthetic apparatus. Recent studies have provided major new insights into one of these signalling mechanisms, and identified the chlorophyll precursor Mg-protoporphyrin IX as a key signalling molecule.
叶绿体发出调节核基因表达的信号,从而确保光合装置的正确组装。最近的研究为这些信号传导机制之一提供了重要的新见解,并确定叶绿素前体镁原卟啉IX为关键信号分子。
