CRC 1078/1: Structural Basis of Proton Release in Water Oxidation by Photosystem II (SP A05)

Zouni, Athina, (Experimental Biophysics)

Duration of Project: 01/2013 - 03/2021

In oxygenic photosynthesis, water is oxidized and dioxygen is formed at the Mn4Ca complex of photosystem II (PSII), a 750 kDa protein-cofactor complex embedded in the thylakoid membrane of plants and cyanobacteria. Reliable structural models of PSII ...

CRC-TRR 175/1: Chloropast Ribonucleoproteins – Stabilizing Chloroplast RNA Pools During Acclimation Responses (SP A02)

Schmitz-Linneweber, Christian, Prof. Dr. (Genetics)

Duration of Project: 07/2016 - 12/2020

Chloroplast ribonucleoproteins (cpRNPs) are light-and temperature-regulated phosphoproteins. We have recently demonstrated that cpRNPs impact chloroplast mRNA accumulation and processing under low temperature conditions on an organelle-wide scale. We ...

CRC-TRR 175/1: Leveraging Deep Sequenzing Data to Move From Predictive to Mechanistic Models of Plastid Gene Expression (SP D01)

Ohler, Uwe, Prof. Dr. (Systems Biology of Gene Regulation (S))

Duration of Project: 07/2016 - 06/2021

CRC-TRR 175/1: Mathematical Modelling of Regulatory Processes During Acclimation (SP D03)

Klipp, Edda, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Dr. h.c. (Theoretical Biophysics)

Duration of Project: 07/2016 - 12/2020

Plant cold acclimation dramatically affects regulation of metabolic pathways. Although it is well known that regulation at the interface of primary and secondary metabolism plays a central role during cold acclimation, underlying metabolic dynamics a ...

CRC-TRR 175/1:Quantitative Biology Experiments and Cloning Pipelin (SP Z01)

Ohler, Uwe, Prof. Dr. (Systems Biology of Gene Regulation (S))

Duration of Project: 07/2016 - 06/2020

In the central scientific project Z1, we are bundling our efforts in quantitative biology approaches at the level of the individual projects, central acclimation kinetics, genetic screens and the identification of candidate mutations. In the new fund ...

CRC-TRR 175/1: Role of Reversible Phosphorylation of GUN4 in Acclimation, Retrograde Signalling and Tetrapyrrole Biosynthesis (SP C04)

Grimm, Bernhard, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Prof. Dr. (Plant Physiology)

Duration of Project: 07/2016 - 12/2020

In oxygenic photoautotrophs, GENOMES UNCOUPLED 4 (GUN4) is an essential stimulator of Mg-chelatase and its phosphorylation lowers the MgCh activity leading to attenuation of Proto consumption for chlorophyll biosynthesis. The objectives of this proje ...

CRC-TRR 175/1: The Green Hub. Central Coordinator of Acclimation in Plants

Schmitz-Linneweber, Christian, Prof. Dr. (Genetics)

Duration of Project: 07/2016 - 06/2020

The acquisition of the capability to exercise photosynthesis made the characteristically sessile lifestyle of plants possible. This in turn meant that plants have had to evolve a variety of physiological responses (acclimation) to cope with the consi ...

Development of a Module-Based Crop Protection Strategy, Taking Into Account Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly Methods to Control Sea Buckthorn Fruit Fly

Schmidt, Uwe, Prof. Dr. (Section Biological Systems Technology)

Duration of Project: 08/2018 - 10/2022

Elucidation of the photo-assembly mechanism of the light-driven water oxidizing complex in photosystem II

Zouni, Athina, PD Dr. (Honorary Chairs / Professors by Special Appointment / Part-Time Lecturers)

Duration of Project: 11/2017 - 12/2018

Oxygen photosynthesis in green plants, algae and cyanobacteria is catalyzed by the two large membrane protein complexes Photosystem I (PSI) and Photosystem II (PSII). Both complexes contain a reaction center (RC) that conducts a light-driven charge t ...
