Abstract excerpt
The rfrA gene was identified in a suppressor screen of a Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 strain deficient in both mntC, encoding a component of an ABC transport system for manganese, and psbO, encoding the extrinsic manganese stabilizing protein of photosystem II (PSII). A spontaneous suppressor mutant (DeltaCDeltaO rfrA-Sup) has a point mutation in rfrA, which restores photosynthetic activity to the...
