Abstrakt: The protein import motor in chloroplasts plays a pivotal role in their biogenesis and homeostasis by driving the translocation of preproteins into chloroplasts. While the Ycf2-FtsHi complex serves as the import motor in land plants, its evolutionary conservation, specialization, and mechanisms across photosynthetic organisms are largely unexplored. Here, we isolated and determined the cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the native Ycf2-FtsHi complex from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, uncovering a complex composed of up to 19 subunits, including multiple green-algae-specific components. The heterohexameric AAA+ ATPase motor module is tilted, potentially facilitating preprotein handover from the translocon at the inner chloroplast membrane (TIC) complex. Preprotein interacts with Ycf2-FtsHi and enhances its ATPase activity in vitro. Integrating Ycf2-FtsHi and translocon at the outer chloroplast membrane (TOC)-TIC supercomplex structures reveals insights into their physical and functional interplay during preprotein translocation. By comparing these findings with those from land plants, our study establishes a structural foundation for understanding the assembly, function, evolutionary conservation, and diversity of chloroplast protein import motors.
