Résumé:© The Author(s) 2024. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Society for Experimental Biology.
Plant mitochondria and chloroplasts are semi-autonomous organelles originated from free-living bacteria that have retained reduced genomes during evolution. As a consequence, relatively few of the mitochondrial and chloroplast proteins are encoded in the organellar genomes and synthesized by the organellar ribosomes. Since both organellar genomes encode mainly components of the energy transduction systems, oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and photosynthetic apparatus in chloroplasts, understanding organellar translation is critical for a thorough comprehension of key aspects of mitochondrial and chloroplast activity affecting plant growth and development. Recent studies have clearly shown that translation is a key regulatory node in the expression of plant organellar genes, underscoring the need for an adequate methodology to study this unique stage of gene expression. The organellar translatome can be analysed by studying newly synthesized proteins or the mRNA pool recruited to the organellar ribosomes. In this review, we present experimental approaches used for studying translation in plant bioenergetic organelles. Their benefits and limitations, as well as the critical steps, are discussed. Additionally, we briefly mention several recently developed strategies to study organellar translation that have not yet been applied to plants
