Funded Activity Summary

Functional genomics of light stress resistance in the model organism Chlamydomonas: combining molecular genetics, transcriptome and proteome analysis. This project aims at combining molecular genetics, transcriptome and proteome analysis to identify genes and pathways underlying high light stress tolerance in previously isolated mutants of the chlorophyte Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Comprehensive profiles of transcriptome-proteome linkage will be constructed without the complications of multicellularity for this unicellular photosynthetic model organism. We will establish a public proteome reference database and provide new microarrays and molecular markers beneficial for research in Chlamydomonas. We expect to advance understanding of high light resistance mechanisms so that it will eventually be applicable to improve productivity in crop plants growing under various environmental stress conditions.
