Falciatore A, Bailleul B, Boulouis A, Bouly J, Bujaldon S, Cheminant-Navarro S, et al.
C R Biol . 2023 Feb; 345(2):15-38. PMID: 36847462
Microalgae are prominent aquatic organisms, responsible for about half of the photosynthetic activity on Earth. Over the past two decades, breakthroughs in genomics and ecosystem biology, as well as the...

Ozawa S, Cavaiuolo M, Jarrige D, Kuras R, Rutgers M, Eberhard S, et al.
Plant Cell . 2020 Jan; 32(4):1179-1203. PMID: 31988263
In the green alga Chlamydomonas ( ), chloroplast gene expression is tightly regulated posttranscriptionally by gene-specific -acting protein factors. Here, we report the identification of the octotricopeptide repeat protein MTHI1,...

Liponska A, Jamalli A, Kuras R, Suay L, Garbe E, Wollman F, et al.
Plant Mol Biol . 2018 Mar; 96(6):641-653. PMID: 29600502
Chlamydomonas RNase J is the first member of this enzyme family that has endo- but no intrinsic 5' exoribonucleolytic activity. This questions its proposed role in chloroplast mRNA maturation. RNA...

Cavaiuolo M, Kuras R, Wollman F, Choquet Y, Vallon O
Nucleic Acids Res . 2017 Oct; 45(18):10783-10799. PMID: 28985404
In Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, regulation of chloroplast gene expression is mainly post-transcriptional. It requires nucleus-encoded trans-acting protein factors for maturation/stabilization (M factors) or translation (T factors) of specific target mRNAs. We...

Lefebvre-Legendre L, Choquet Y, Kuras R, Loubery S, Douchi D, Goldschmidt-Clermont M
Plant Physiol . 2015 Feb; 167(4):1527-40. PMID: 25673777
The biogenesis of the photosynthetic electron transfer chain in the thylakoid membranes requires the concerted expression of genes in the chloroplast and the nucleus. Chloroplast gene expression is subjected to...

Formighieri C, Cazzaniga S, Kuras R, Bassi R
Plant J . 2012 Nov; 73(5):850-61. PMID: 23167510
as1, for antenna size mutant 1, was obtained by insertion mutagenesis of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. This strain has a low chlorophyll content, 8% with respect to the...

Eberhard S, Loiselay C, Drapier D, Bujaldon S, Girard-Bascou J, Kuras R, et al.
Plant J . 2011 Jun; 67(6):1055-66. PMID: 21623973
After endosymbiosis, organelles lost most of their initial genome. Moreover, expression of the few remaining genes became tightly controlled by the nucleus through trans-acting protein factors that are required for...

Johnson X, Wostrikoff K, Finazzi G, Kuras R, Schwarz C, Bujaldon S, et al.
Plant Cell . 2010 Jan; 22(1):234-48. PMID: 20097872
We identify and functionally characterize MRL1, a conserved nuclear-encoded regulator of the large subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. The nonphotosynthetic mrl1 mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii lacks ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, and the resulting...

Lezhneva L, Kuras R, Ephritikhine G, de Vitry C
J Biol Chem . 2008 Jul; 283(36):24608-16. PMID: 18593701
We recently characterized a novel heme biogenesis pathway required for heme c(i)' covalent binding to cytochrome b6 in Chlamydomonas named system IV or CCB (cofactor assembly, complex C (b6f), subunit...

Biochim Biophys Acta . 2008 May; 1777(7-8):1001-19. PMID: 18501698
Recent progress in understanding the Q-cycle mechanism of the bc(1) complex is reviewed. The data strongly support a mechanism in which the Q(o)-site operates through a reaction in which the...
