Our paper on psbA translation in Chlamydomonas is finally out in @jxbotany.bsky.social. Xiaozhuo discovered that chloroplast translational control in plants and algae is more similar than others had predicted. Check it out! academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-...
The High Chlorophyll Fluorescence 244 homolog CrHCF244 is required for psbA (D1) translation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Abstract. Translation of psbA, the chloroplast gene that encodes the D1 subunit of Photosystem II (PSII), is important for both PSII biogenesis and repair.

Last night I added some flavor text for the genes you can loot in my microbial roguelike game. Here's the nobel lecture from 1988 on solving the structure of photosystem protein psbA:

Our revised manuscript about psbA translational control in #Chlamydomonas is now available. We assert that algae and plants are more similar than expected (compared to a lot of earlier literature) in their regulation of this key Photosystem II subunit. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our preprint on psbA translational control in algae has been revised. We argue that this process is more similar in algae and plants than previously thought. However, the occurrence of suppressor mutations in Chlamy suggests there's more to learn! #lsuscience www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
