HEMC - Plant Editosome Database - CNCB-NGDC

Summary

Editing Factor: HEMC
Synonym: HYDROXYMETHYLBILANE SYNTHASE; RUG1; RUGOSA 1
Description: Encoding a protein with porphobilinogen deaminase activity. This protein is targeted to the chloroplast. Mutants spontaneously develop chlorotic leaf lesions in the absence of pathogen attack, resembling the phenotype of lesion-mimic mutants. It has been shown to interact with the PPR protein AtECB2 for chloroplast RNA editing.
Protein Family: Porphobilinogen deaminase
Subclass: NA
Physical Interaction: MORF8/RIP1
Construct Structure: NA
Gene ID & Species: AT5G08280 (Arabidopsis thaliana)
Edited Gene(s): accD    ndhF    rpoC1    rpl23    petL    rpoA    clpP    rps12    ndhB    ndhD
Editing Type(s): C-to-U (24)
