Abstract excerpt
Hsp70 family proteins function as motors driving protein translocation into mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum. Whether Hsp70 is involved in protein import into chloroplasts has not been resolved. We show here Arabidopsis thaliana knockout mutants of either of the two stromal cpHsc70s, cpHsc70-1 and cpHsc70-2, are defective in protein import into chloroplasts during early developmental stages. Protein...
