Plastid evolutionSven B Gould
School of Botany, University of Melbourne, Parkville VIC 3010, Australia
Annu Rev Plant Biol 59:491-517. 2008
..We review the origins, integration, and functions of the different plastid types with special emphasis on their biochemical abilities, transfer of genes to the host, and the back supply of proteins to the endosymbiont...

Protein targeting into the complex plastid of cryptophytesSven B Gould
Cell Biology, Philipps-University Marburg, Karl-von-Frisch Strasse 8, 35042, Marburg, Germany
J Mol Evol 62:674-81. 2006
..Furthermore, we demonstrate that one single, but conserved amino acid is the triggering key for the discrimination between nucleus-encoded plastid and periplastidal proteins...

Der1-mediated preprotein import into the periplastid compartment of chromalveolates?Maik S Sommer
Laboratory for Cell Biology, Philipps University of Marburg, Marburg, Germany
Mol Biol Evol 24:918-28. 2007

Protein targeting into complex diatom plastids: functional characterisation of a specific targeting motifAnsgar Gruber
Plant Ecophysiology, University of Konstanz, Universitatsstrasse 10, 78464, Konstanz, Germany
Plant Mol Biol 64:519-30. 2007
..Deletions within the signal peptide domains also impaired plastid import, showing that the presence of F at the N-terminus of the transit peptide together with a cleavable signal peptide is crucial for plastid import...
