Abstract excerpt
The biosynthesis of phosphatidylglycerol represents a central pathway in lipid metabolism in all organisms. The enzyme catalyzing the first reaction of the pathway in the plastid, glycerol-3-phosphate acyl-acyl carrier protein acyltransferase, is thought to be encoded in Arabidopsis by the ATS1 locus. A number of genetic mutants deficient in this activity have been described. However, the corresponding mutant...
