- Intervention effect CrKEA1 expression rescued growth of Arabidopsis At-kea1kea2.
- Intervention effect CrKEA1 expression rescued rRNA maturation of Arabidopsis At-kea1kea2.
- Observation PhANG repression following IE KEA loss was conserved between algae and plants.
- Observation In Chlamydomonas, Cr-kea1 caused chloroplast deformation and photoinhibition.
- Observation Cr-kea1 showed strong induction of ribosome biogenesis genes.
- Observation Cr-kea1 had defects in stromal rRNA maturation, paralleling Arabidopsis kea1kea2.
- Observation Chlamydomonas alone activated cpUPR after IE KEA loss.
- Observation Chlamydomonas alone had reduced cell-cycle and plastid-fission gene expression after IE KEA loss.
- Observation Cr-kea1 had increased aberrant cytokinesis, unequal division and division failure.
