Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Investigation of Organelle Genomes of Extra Nuclear Sunflower Mutants with Variegated PhenotypeIrina Dremuk, Nikolay Kozel, Mariya Logacheva et al.The comparative analysis of complete chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA sequences of the original inbred line 3629 and three extra nuclear mutant lines variegated-1, variegated-15, variegated-17, obtained by the N-nitroso-N-methylurea induced mutagenesis, was done. The studied mutant lines were presented two different phenotypes with diverse chlorophyll content: Pale/green mutant line variegated-17 with 1.8% relative (to 3629 line) chlorophyll content in mutant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 24 Oct 2017 · 7,633 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsVariability of Chloroplast DNA of Extranuclear Sunflower MutantsMarkin Nicolay, Aieksandr Usatov, Maria Logacheva et al.A comparative analysis of full-genome sequences of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) of the original inbred line 3629 and three extranuclear mutants, which were obtained by the method of mutagenesis induced with N-nitroso-N-methylurea (NMU) and characterized by different level of chlorophyll insufficiency (en:chlorina-7-yellow-green leaves; chlorophyll content (a + b)-67.8% with respect to the line 3629, variegated-10-leaves with white zones; chlorophyll content (a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2016 · 7,269 accessesView PDF Cite

InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractA State of PSI and PSII Photochemistry of Sunflower Yellow-Green Plastome MutantMaksim S. Makarenko, Nikolay V. Kozel, Alexander V. Usatov et al.Chlorophyll deficient mutants are appropriate model objects for a large number of investigations in the field of photosynthesis. In this study, we identified a state of Photosystem I (PSI) and Photosystem II (PSII) photochemistry and light responses of the sunflower yellow-green mutant line - en:chlorina-7, wherein mutations in chloroplast genes have been previously localized. The conducted research revealed low content … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 29 Dec 2016 · 7,458 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiscovery of Evolutionary Divergence of Biological Nitrogen Fixation and Photosynthesis: Fine Tuning of Biogenesis of the NifH and the ChlL by a Peptidyl-Prolyl Cis/Trans IsomeraseNara Gavini, Sinny Delacroix, Kelvin Harris Jr., Lakshmi PulakatProblem statement: Despite the structural and functional similarities between the nitrogenase that performs biological nitrogen fixation reaction and the Dark Protochlorphyllide Oxidoreductase (DPOR) that performs chlorophyll-biosynthesis, attempts to substitute nitrogenase-components with DPOR-components have hitherto failed. This investigation was undertaken to test if Chlamydomonas reinhardtii protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) reductase (ChlL) that shares some structural similarity with Nitrogenase Reductase (NifH) could complement the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,614 accessesView PDF Cite
