| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to further clarify molecular mechanisms of plastid differentiation by the use of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-based method. We here established a novel induction system of chloroplast differentiation using Arabidopsis thaliana T87 suspension cultured cells, and examined functional roles of plastid sigma factors during chloroplast differentiation. Furthermore, transcriptional regulation during amyloplast differentiation has been also characterized.
