Two nuclear mutations disrupt distinct pathways for targeting proteins to the chloroplast thylakoid.

Abstract excerpt

Results of in vitro experiments have suggested the existence of at least three pathways by which nuclear-encoded proteins are targeted to the chloroplast thylakoid membrane. However, few components of the targeting machinery have been identified and the relationship between the three pathways is not clear. To investigate mechanisms underlying thylakoid protein targeting, we identified nuclear mutations in maize...
