LPA66 - Plant Editosome Database - CNCB-NGDC

Summary

Editing Factor: LPA66
Synonym: LOW PSII ACCUMULATION 66
Description: Encoding a chloroplast protein of the pentatricopeptide repeat family; lpa66 mutants impair the editing of psbF that converts serine to phenylalanine and display a high chlorophyll fluorescence phenotype.
Protein Family: PPR
Subclass: DYW
Physical Interaction: NA
Construct Structure: PLS-E-DYW
Gene ID & Species: AT5G48910 (Arabidopsis thaliana)
Edited Gene(s): psbF
Editing Type(s): C-to-U (7)
