“…Specifically, unlike most plants, Chlamydomonas assembles a functional photosynthetic apparatus in the dark, and mutants with defects in photosynthesis typically grow well in the dark when provided with a source of carbon and energy such as acetate (Levine, 1960). These characteristics have been leveraged for over 50 years to identify and characterize mutants with defects in photosynthesis, including in many core components of the photosynthetic electron transport chain (Gorman and Levine, 1965, 1966; Lu et al, 2020).…”

Photosynthesis is central to food production and the Earth's biogeochemistry, yet the molecular basis for its regulation remains poorly understood. Here, using high-throughput genetics in the model eukaryotic alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, we identify with high confidence (FDR<0.11) 70 previously-uncharacterized genes required for photosynthesis. We then provide a resource of mutant proteomes that enables functional characterization of these novel genes by revealing their relationship to known genes. The data allow assignment of 34 novel genes to the biogenesis or regulation of one or more specific photosynthetic complexes. Additional analysis uncovers at least seven novel critical regulatory proteins, including five Photosystem I mRNA maturation factors and two master regulators: MTF1, which impacts chloroplast gene expression directly; and PMR1, which impacts expression via nuclear-expressed factors. Our work provides a rich resource identifying novel regulatory and functional genes and placing them into pathways, thereby opening the door to a system-level understanding of photosynthesis.
