Abstract excerpt
In photoautotrophic organisms, the expression of nuclear genes encoding plastid proteins is known to be regulated at various levels. In this study, we present the analysis of two non-photosynthetic mutants (CC1051 and TR72) from the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Both mutant strains show a defect in the processing of chloroplast psaA mRNA, and therefore they are assumed to be defective in...
