Regulation of chloroplast functions is a clear target to think about molecular interaction between a substrate and a certain functional protein, and it is tightly linked with response of plant to environmental stresses. Chloroplast mutants arising from amino acid changes at the target site of inhibitors, has encouraged us in application of the new approaches to other plant physiology.
Plants operate specific systems for embryogenesis which are affected by various exogenous molecules.
We found several interesting compounds for probing gene expression in these systems. Understanding processes of plant cell growth and differentiation requires suitable mutants in order to analyze regulating genes for the sites of molecular probes.
