Abstract

Significance: Photosynthesis is the key biochemical reaction in plants. The molecular mechanisms of potassium (K + ) transport across chloroplast membranes and their relevance for chloroplast function and photosynthesis remain unknown. In our report, we identify and characterize the molecular basis of K + (KEA1, KEA2, KEA3) and sodium (NHD1) transporters in chloroplast membranes. We demonstrate that these inner envelope and thylakoid-targeted transporters are essential for chloroplast osmoregulation and thylakoid density. In addition, we discover an unexpected high Na + restoration of photosynthetic activity in the mutants.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
