PPME - Plant Editosome Database - CNCB-NGDC

Summary

Editing Factor: PPME
Synonym: P-type PPR-Modulating Editing
Description: Modulating Editing (PPME), which has a distinct role in mitochondrial nad1 RNA editing via RNA binding activity; In the homozygous ppme mutant, cytosine (C)-to-uracil (U) conversions at both the nad1-898 and 937 sites were abolished, disrupting Arg(300)-to-Trp(300) and Pro(313)-to-Ser(313) amino acid changes in the mitochondrial NAD1 protein; NAD1 is a critical component of mitochondrial respiration complex I; its activity is severely reduced in the homozygous ppme mutant, resulting in significantly altered growth and development; Both abolished RNA editing and defective complex I activity were completely rescued by CaMV 35S promoter- and PPME native promoter-driven PPME genomic fragments tagged with GFP in a homozygous ppme background
