Abstract excerpt
• The thylakoid protease Deg2 is a serine-type protease peripherally attached to the stromal side of the thylakoid membrane. Given the lack of knowledge concerning its function, two T-DNA insertion lines devoid of Deg2 were prepared to study the functional importance of this protease in Arabidopsis thaliana. • The phenotypic appearance of deg2 mutants was studied using a combination of stereo and transmission...
