CRC/TRR 175/2: The Green Hub: Central Coordinator of Acclimation in Plants (SP C04)
Grimm, Bernhard, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Prof. Dr. (Plant Physiology)
Duration of project: 07/2020 - 06/2024
Role of heme for plastid retrograde signalling (C04).
Adverse environmental conditions induce acclimation responses, which are communicated through chloroplasts to adjust nuclear gene expression. Following the concept of plastid-derived retrograde ...CRC/TRR 175/2: The Green Hub: Central Coordinator of Acclimation in Plants (SP C05)
Kaufmann, Kerstin, Prof. Dr. (Cellular and Molecular Biology of Plants)
Duration of project: 07/2020 - 06/2024
Mechanisms and components of GUN1/GLK signalling and its relevance for acclimation (C05).
The plastid protein GENOMES UNCOUPLED 1 (GUN1) and the nuclear transcription factors GOLDEN-LIKE1 and 2 (GLK1 and 2) operate in the same retrograde signalling ...-

Financer: DFG: ForschergruppenChlorophyll biosynthesis provides the essential pigments for photosynthesis in photoautotrophic organisms. While almost all enzymatic steps have been elucidated, the spatio-temporal organization of the pathway as well as its functional coupling to th ...
Functional in vivo Studies of Algal Sensory Photoreceptors
Hegemann, Peter, Prof. Dr. (Experimental Biophysics)
Duration of project: 06/2019 - 10/2021
Financer: DFG: SachbeihilfeChannelrhodopsins, that we originally discovered in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and described as a light-gated ion channels, revolutionized the field of neuroscience over the past decade by enabling neuroscientists to specifically activa ...

Duration of project: 07/2019 - 07/2021
Financer: DFG: SachbeihilfeThe tetrapyrrole biosynthesis (TBS) is tightly controlled at the transcriptional and the posttranslational level. Due to photooxidative stress caused by accumulating tetrapyrrole intermediates, multiple factors are required for a fine-tuned metabolic ...

Duration of project: 07/2017 - 01/2021
Financer: DFG - SchwerpunktprogrammePlants effectively coordinate the photosynthesis dependent production of energy and reducing equivalents with the activity of metabolic pathways. As the redox state of chloroplasts changes in dependency to photosynthesis activities, it is proposed th ...

Duration of project: 01/2021 - 12/2023
Financer: DFG: SachbeihilfeChloroplasts primarily function as bioreactors converting light into chemical energy. In addition, they also act as regulatory hub for intracellular communication and mediation of environmental impacts to regulate nuclear gene expression. Chloroplast ...
