The unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii possesses a                      CO2-concentrating system that allows this organism to grow                      photoautotrophically at carbon dioxide concentrations lower than                most higher plants could survive.  Recent work has indicated that               the chloroplast envelope may play an important role in carbon                   dioxide accumulation.  Two goals of this research are to                        characterize this transport by C. reinhardtii chloroplasts and to               identify the transport proteins involved.  Using intact                         chloroplasts, the role of pH gradients, monovalent ions, and ATP                in the accumulation of inorganic carbon will be examined.  The                  long-term goal of this project is to understand how the delivery                of carbon dioxide to the chloroplast is enhanced by membrane                    transport processes in higher plants and algae.
