Abstract
Chloroplast biogenesis requires coordinated activities of both the organelle and the nucleo-cytoplasmic compartment. This is evident in the synthesis of the photosynthetic apparatus and other multi-component complexes, including those of the organellar gene expression system. The flow of genetic information from DNA to final gene products involves a complex network of basic and regulatory cis/trans-interactions between DNA (RNA) sequence elements and their cognate protein factors, both inside and outside the organelle. We have investigated functional determinants that play a role in the transcription and RNA processing of genes for chloroplast constituents.
