Abstract excerpt
The chloroplast homolog of the 54 kDa subunit of signal recognition particle is required for the in vitro targeting of chlorophyll a/b binding proteins (LHCP) to the thylakoid membrane. To explore the function of cpSRP54 in vivo, plants that are mutated in cpSRP54 function were generated. Dominan...
