Abstract excerpt
RNA processing, RNA editing, RNA splicing and translational activation of RNAs are essential post-transcriptional steps in chloroplast gene expression. Typically, the factors mediating those processes are nuclear encoded and post-translationally imported into the chloroplasts. In land plants, members of the large pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein family are required for individual steps in chloroplast RNA...
