Abstract excerpt
Many studies of nuclear genes encoding chloroplast proteins have focused on the transcriptional regulation of their expression. The genes (rbcS) encoding the small subunit (SSU) of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, a major stromal protein, comprise one such group. We have examined the role played by post-transcriptional events in determining the relative levels of individual rbcS mRNAs in different...
