Abstract excerpt
Truncations of the subunit of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) from Rhodospirillum rubrum were generated by site-directed mutagenesis to examine the role of the C-terminal tail section. Removal of the last and the penultimate alpha-helices in the tail section changes the quat...
