Abstract excerpt
Chloroplast glycerolipids in a number of higher-plant species, including Arabidopsis thaliana, are synthesized by two distinct pathways termed the prokaryotic and eukaryotic pathways. The molecules of galactolipids produced by the prokaryotic pathway contain substantial amounts of hexadecatrienoic acid fatty acid. Here we describe a new class of mutants, designated gly1, with reduced levels of hexadecatrienoic...
