PPR27 - Plant Editosome Database - CNCB-NGDC

Summary

Editing Factor: PPR27
Synonym: NA
Description: The ppr27 mutant is completely deficient in C-to-U editing at the ccmFN-1357 and rps3-707 sites, and editing at six other sites is substantially reduced; The lack of editing at ccmFN-1357 causes a deficiency of CcmFN protein; As CcmFN functions in the maturation pathway of cytochrome proteins that are subunits of mitochondrial complex III, its deficiency results in an absence of cytochrome c1 and cytochrome c proteins; Consequently, the assembly of mitochondrial complex III and super-complex I+III2 is decreased, which impairs the electron transport chain and respiration, leading to arrests in embryogenesis and endosperm development in ppr27
