Mutations in a signal sequence for the thylakoid membrane identify multiple protein transport pathways and nuclear suppressors.

The Journal of cell biology - 1 Jul 1994

Smith T A, Kohorn B D

Abstract excerpt

The apparatus that permits protein translocation across the internal thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts is completely unknown, even though these membranes have been the subject of extensive biochemical analysis. We have used a genetic approach to characterize the translocation of Chlamydomonas c...
