Altered expression of nuclear genes encoding chloroplast polypeptides in non-photosynthetic mutants of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: evidence for post-transcriptional regulation.

Abstract excerpt

In photoautotrophic organisms it is well documented that the expression of nuclear genes encoding plastid proteins can be regulated at various levels. We present here the analysis of a non-photosynthetic strain (CC1051) of the green unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii; this strain carries a mutation in the newly identified Cen gene involved in the co-regulated expression of several different nuclear genes...
