Fructose 1,6-Bisphosphatase in the Green Alga Selenastrum minutum: I. Evidence for the Presence of Isoenzymes.

abstract：:Chloroplasts are multifunctional organelles whose morphology is affected by environmental stresses. Although the three-dimensional (3D) architecture of thylakoid membranes has been reported previously, a 3D visualization of chloroplast under stress has not been explored. In this work, we used a positive-strand RNA ((+...
