Membranous translation platforms in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Yi Sun, Shiva Bakhtiari, Melissa Valente-Paterno, Heng Jiang, William Zerges) academic.oup.com/plphys/advance… @YiSun94609169 @biologyatCU @OxfordBiology @ASPB #PlantSci

Well done, Yi! Big congratulations!

We provide comprehensive evidence for non-canonical chloroplast membranes as key platforms for translation and biogenesis, supporting an ‘assembly line’ model for thylakoid membrane formation in Chlamydomonas.

🚀 Exciting postdoc opportunity! Join the Jarvis Lab @OxfordBiology and help unravel the assembly of the chloroplast TOC-TIC translocon! Our well-funded lab offers a great environment for ground-breaking research! 🔬🌱 Apply here: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…

🌱 Exciting opportunity in the Jarvis Lab @OxfordBiology! We're hiring a 3-year Research Assistant to study the structure & function of the plant chloroplast protein import machinery. 🔬 Help us resolve the structure of the TOC-TIC translocon! Apply here: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…

We're hiring! Seeking a postdoc (or Grade 6 role with adjusted responsibilities) to investigate the molecular functions of the CHLORAD system. Join us to unravel its intricate details! Apply here: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit… @OxfordBiology

Big congratulations to @nellaepalli for winning a prize for his outstanding poster at the #EMBOproteinTranslocation Workshop! A huge thank you to all the session chairs, who formed the prize awarding committee, and to @J_Cell_Sci and @Co_Biologists for their generous sponsorship!

Thrilled to contribute to this masterpiece with @ThePlantCell! The lowdown on breakdown: Open questions in plant proteolysis. Well done @JunFang55723354 and @BPeixotoSci! academic.oup.com/plcell/article…

Excited to share our Research Briefing that accompanies our newly published paper (doi.org/10.1038/s41477…). We dive into the key questions, present our solutions, and explore future directions in studying the CHLORAD pathway. Check it out!

Pleased to share our latest advance in the CHLORAD pathway! A plant UBX-domain protein, PUX10, coordinates ubiquitination and retrotranslocation activities of CHLORAD to enable efficient TOC turnover. Well done, Na! @nana6172ox 🌿 nature.com/articles/s4147…

Membranous translation platforms in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Our results support a model of photosynthesis complex biogenesis in a spatiotemporal assembly line involving LDM and CTM as sequential stages leading to thylakoid membranes.

Many thanks to @Billakurthi88, @LoudyaNaresh, and @PlantPhys for this excellent News & Views piece on our recent advancement in the spatial coordination of nuclear and chloroplast gene expression in Chlamydomonas. doi.org/10.1093/plphys…
