SMK4 - Plant Editosome Database - BIG Data Center

Summary

Editing Factor: SMK4
Synonym: SMALL KERNEL4
Description: Null mutation of Smk4 slows plant growth and development, causing small plants, delayed flowering time, and small kernels; Loss of Smk4 function abolishes C-to-U editing at position 1489 of the cytochrome c oxidase1 (cox1) transcript, causing an amino acid change from serine to proline at 497 in Cox1; Cox1 is a core component of mitochondrial complex IV. Indeed, complex IV activity is reduced in the smk4, along with drastically elevated expression of alternative oxidases (AOX)
Protein Family: PPR
Subclass: E
Construct Structure: PLS-E1-E2
Gene ID & Species: GRMZM2G459532 (Zea mays)
Edited Gene(s): cox1
