报告题目:植物叶绿体细胞器分裂的机制与空间调控

报告摘要:

叶绿体的数量随植物生长而增加,以满足植物日益增长的能量需求,并确保细胞分裂所形成的子细胞能够继承同等数量的叶绿体。叶绿体通过二元分裂的方式增加其数量,该过程由位于叶绿体中间位置的分裂装置执行。叶绿体分裂装置主要由位于叶绿体内、外膜两侧的分裂环所组成。其中,FtsZ环(简称“Z环”)是叶绿体分裂过程中形成的第一个分裂环,其正常形成和定位是叶绿体进行分裂的基础。Z环由可自聚合的类微管蛋白FtsZ聚合形成。Z环的形成和定位受叶绿体Min系统控制,其通过抑制非分裂位点处Z环的形成决定Z环的正确定位。该系统的核心成员是叶绿体基质蛋白ARC3。ARC3是FtsZ聚合的抑制子,但其活性调控的分子机制尚不清楚。本报告将着重介绍ARC3定位及其抑制FtsZ聚合活性调控机制的最新研究进展。

TITLE:Mechanisms and Spatial Regulation of Chloroplast Division

ABSTRACT:

During leaf cell expansion and plant growth, the population of chloroplasts in plant cells must increase, which is crucial for photosynthetic capacity and ensures faithful inheritance of organelles during cell division. Chloroplasts are propagated through binary fission of preexisting organelles. This process is powered by a dynamic macromolecular machine positioned at the middle of the organelle. Ring-like contractile structures are assembled on both the inner and outer envelope membranes of chloroplasts. The foundation of the division machinery and first contractile structure to assemble is the stromal Filamenting temperature-sensitive Z (FtsZ) ring (Z ring), composed of the tubulin-like, self-assembling cytoskeletal protein FtsZ. The placement of the Z ring to the midplastid division site is governed by the chloroplast Min (Minicell) system, which inhibits Z-ring assembly everywhere except the division site. The central Min-system player is the FtsZ-assembly inhibitor ACCUMULATION AND REPLICATION OF CHLOROPLASTS3 (ARC3). However, the subcellular localization and the regulation of the inhibitory activity of ARC3 remains unclear. In this talk, we will update our current knowledge in terms of the function and regulation of ARC3 during chloroplast division.
