Abstract excerpt
The biogenesis of functional forms of chloroplast ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) is crucial for the translation of chloroplast mRNAs into polypeptides. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the proper processing and maturation of chloroplast rRNA species are poorly understood. Through a genetic approach, we isolated and characterized an Arabidopsis mutant, α1-4, harboring a missense mutation in the plastid...
