Abstract

Correct chloroplast development and function require co‐ordinated expression of chloroplast and nuclear genes. This is achieved through chloroplast signals that modulate nuclear gene expression in accordance with the chloroplast's needs. Genetic evidence indicates that GUN1, a chloroplast‐localized pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein with a C‐terminal Small MutS‐Related (SMR) domain, is involved in integrating multiple developmental and stress‐related signals in both young seedlings and adult leaves. Recently, GUN1 was found to interact physically with factors involved in chloroplast protein homeostasis, and with enzymes of tetrapyrrole biosynthesis in adult leaves that function in various retrograde signalling pathways. Here we show that following perturbation of chloroplast protein homeostasis: (i) by growth in lincomycin‐containing medium; or (ii) in mutants defective in either the FtsH protease complex (ftsh), plastid ribosome activity (prps21‐1 and prpl11‐1) or plastid protein import and folding (cphsc70‐1), GUN1 influences NEP‐dependent transcript accumulation during cotyledon greening and also intervenes in chloroplast protein import
