Abstract excerpt
Chloroplast thylakoid lumen of Arabidopsis thaliana contains 16 immunophilins, five cyclophilins and 11 FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs), which are considered protein folding catalysts, although only two of them, AtFKBP13 and AtCYP20-2, possess peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) activity. To address the question of the physiological significance of this activity, we obtained and characterized Arabidopsis...
