Abstract excerpt

Analysis of the ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) activase gene and gene products from Arabidopsis thaliana wild-type plants and the Rubisco activase-deficient mutant strain showed that the rca mutation caused GT to be changed to AT at the 5'-splice junction of intron 3 in the six-intron pre-mRNA. Northern blot analysis, genomic and cDNA sequencing, and primer extension analysis indicated...
