Regulation of Translation in Plants

  • Chapter
Genetic Engineering

Part of the book series: Genetic Engineering: Principles and Methods ((GEPM,volume 15))

Abstract

Protein synthesis in plants takes place in two distinct compartments, the cytoplasm and organelles. Translation in the cytoplasm of plants exhibits the characteristics of a typical eukaryotic system such as m7G capped mRNAs, polyadenylated 3′ ends and cap-dependent initiation. On the other hand, translation in organelles such as the chloroplast shows homologies to translation in prokaryotes. Chloroplastic mRNAs are not polyadenylated, exhibit internal initiation of translation and contain sequences which are reminiscent of Shine-Dalgarno sequences. The symbiotic state of the chloroplast within the eukaryotic cell necessitates the close cooperation of gene expression between these two compartments. This cooperation of gene expression may require the participation of nuclear-encoded factors in chloroplast translation resulting in the utilization of eukaryotic factors in a prokaryotic-like system.
