A collection of links to articles, or potential articles about the biochemical, cellular and physiological topics relating to chloroplasts.
Tasks include:
1) write a definition for each topic.
2) start a new article (click a red link).
3) expand an existing stub or article.

Parent topics

  • Cell [r]: The basic unit of life, consisting of biochemical networks enclosed by a membrane. [e]
  • Cell biology [r]: The study of the components of biological cells and their interactions. [e]
  • Leaf [r]: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Leaf (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.
  • Metabolism [r]: The modification of chemical substances by living organisms. [e]
  • Organelle [r]: Specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function, and is usually separately enclosed within its own lipid membrane, found in all eukaryotic cells. [e]
  • Plastid [r]: Add brief definition or description

Subtopics

  • Light-independent reactions [r]: Add brief definition or description
    • Calvin cycle [r]: A metabolic cycle, discovered by Melvin Calvin, that is responsible for the reduction of carbon dioxide to sugar in the stroma of chloroplasts. [e]
    • C4 carbon fixation [r]: A carbon fixation reaction that fixes carbon dioxide into the four carbon molecule oxaloacetate; usually found in the mesophyll cells of plants that use the Hatch-Slack pathway. [e]
    • Crassulacean acid metabolism [r]: (CAM) Typical in succulent plants and characterised by the ability to fix carbon dioxide to malate in the dark; this is then stored in the vacuole as malic acid until the following light period when it is converted to carbon dioxide for fixation by the Calvin cycle. [e]
    • Photorespiration [r]: A salvage pathway utilised to remove the products of Rubisco's oxygenase activity during photosynthesis; involves reactions in three organelles, the chloroplast, the peroxisome and the mitochondria. [e]
    • RuBisCO [r]: The enzyme Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase; the most abundant protein on earth and required for the first step of the Calvin cycle to reduce carbon dioxide during carbon fixation. [e]
