Abstract excerpt
Cycloheximide, an inhibitor of cytoplasmic translation, induced a rapid reduction of 70-80% in levels of mRNA for the chloroplast elongation factor Tu (tufA) in asynchronously growing Chlamydomonas. This effect was shown to be mainly transcriptional, and not restricted to tufA, as transcription of other chloroplast-encoded genes were cycloheximide-sensitive, although not all equally (psbA showed no more than 40%...
