This study shows that CreNADK2 localizes to both chloroplasts and mitochondria in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and its absence impairs mitochondrial NADP(H) synthesis, TCA cycle function, and heterotrophic growth.

This study shows that mitochondrial repositioning and reorientation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii under low CO2 conditions is regulated by CIA5 and supports CO2 concentrating mechanism function.

The paper identifies RMT2 as a chloroplast methyltransferase homolog involved in photosystem I biogenesis in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii through a high-throughput O2 sensitivity screen.
