The initiation codon determines the efficiency but not the site of translation initiation in Chlamydomonas chloroplasts.

The Plant cell - 1 Aug 1995

Chen X, Kindle K L, Stern D B

Abstract excerpt

To study translation initiation in Chlamydomonas chloroplasts, we mutated the initiation codon AUG to AUU, ACG, ACC, ACU, and UUC in the chloroplast petA gene, which encodes cytochrome f of the cytochrome b6/f complex. Cytochrome f accumulated to detectable levels in all mutant strains except the one with a UUC codon, but only the mutant with an AUU codon grew well at 24 degrees C under conditions that require...
