Abstract excerpt
Plastid ribosomes are composed of large (50S) and small (30S) subunits, each made up of ribosomal RNAs (rRNA) and plastid ribosomal proteins (PRPs). While numerous PRPs have been characterized, the functions of several PRPs remain elusive. We followed a reverse genetics approach in Arabidopsis to functionally characterize nuclear genes encoding PRPs for which no viable mutant alleles had been described. We report...
