Abstract excerpt
We have isolated and characterized a nuclear mutant, 222E, in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, which is defective in photosystem II (PSII). Polypeptide P5, the product of psbB, is not produced in this mutant, leading to a destabilization of other PSII components. The mutant specifically fails to accumulate psbB transcripts and displays an altered transcription pattern downstream of psbB. Pulse-labelling experiments...
