Abstract excerpt
To study the function of the carboxyl-terminal domain of a photosystem II (PSII) reaction center polypeptide, D1, chloroplast mutants of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been generated in which Leu-343 and Ala-344 have been simultaneously or individually replaced by Phe and Ser, respectively. The mutants carrying these replacements individually, L343F and A344S, showed a wild-type phenotype. In...
